Note: Please forgive me if your question refers to Veet causing disease after years and years of repeat exposure. Though I have never heard that it does, despite these products being on the market for at least 40+ years, I am not a professional in any field that might answer that question. I am answering from the pov of someone who has used these types of products on various areas of her body over the past 30 or so years and have known countless others who have also done so. Please, as far as my advice goes, remember it is not a medical opinion.
Veet and similar products are chemical hair removal so there is no shaving involved. These products essentially disolve at least the base of the hair (not necessarily the entire hair) just below the skin line so that all the hair comes off. These products claim to offer a more thorough, long-lasting and soft outcome than shaving.
With chemical hair removal, a sensitivity reaction can occur even if you've had no trouble with it in the past. That's why the directions say to first do a small test patch in the area you will be using it to see how your skin reacts. Bad reactions can range from slight itchiness to hives to a chemical burn. Of course if you don't follow the directions, such as leaving it on way too long, you up your risk for it irritating your skin.
What type of crossdresser are you?
Whichever you choose, keeping your skin clean, exfoliated and hydrated will help lessen the chance of any problems.
As for it causing diseases in your vagina… The first person who answered this question spelled out pretty clearly that you do not have hair in your vagina, only on the outside, non-mucous membrane part of your vulva. Therefore, you do not need to shave or use chemical hair removal in your vagina. When using these products near those sensitive mucous membranes of the inner vulva, be extra careful and wipe away any that goes out of bounds with a wet cloth. It takes time for these products to work so you have time to make sure it's only where you want it well before you risk any injury to your skin. Again, take the time, every time, to do a test patch to check how your skin responds.
As for the disease part, it cannot cause disease directly (see my entry note). The only role it may play in disease is if you have a reaction that causes a breakage in your skin that allows an opening for virus or bacteria to enter. Supposedly, (again, not a doc here), even the most careful and gentle shaving traumatizes the skin surrounding your hair follicles enough for bacteria to potentially enter and cause infection.
Hi everybody! I have been looking at posts on narcs and narc abuse on here and if has really helped me out a lot. I am currently struggling with my situation and need some advice/support.
I met a narc last year, everything seemed to good to be true. Love bombing, always texting calling and taking me on dates. Everything changed when someone warned me about him out in public in front of him and who he is. This caused a conflict with us and the love bombing seized.
he would tell me that everything is okay and i can come and talk. He would set a time limit on me and kick me out after that.
he would then text me like everything was fine and we hung out again and after that he completely ghosted me for one week. He came back and texted me a week later laughing about the ghosting and acting like nothing had happened.
he continued to text me ( not like in the beginning) make plans with me, then on the day of the plans he would just ghost me. One day he would act interested the next silence.
i contacted him a month later and he acted like nothing happened. He was on a vacation and sent me a picture of another woman ( someone he allegedly met on the trip) to strike a reaction but i never gave him one. After the trip he came to my place and was extremely rude, accusing me of going on dates with a bunch of men. The next day he accused me of being an alcoholic and that he wanted nothing to do with me but said well maybe we can be "friends" then ghosted me
i assumed at this point it was over and i would never hear from him again. He contacted me on the holiday a month later acting like everything was great. We ended up hanging out a month or so later and when we hung out it went well, i thought things were going in the right direction.
after we hung out.. silence. I would try to text him and if he replied it would be very short then he just stopped replying. He ghosted me for almost three months. I thought he was done this time and of course he popped up again like nothing happened. At this point i was getting sick of if so i questioned him as to why he dissapeared and always does this. Of course he had some sob story about a injury and family member dying of cancer. I felt pity for him and he gave me an apology.. so i took him back stupidly.
things seemed to be going smooth for a couple months, of course until his family member died and his injury got better he never contacted me and was distant. Menawhile, i was there for him during the difficult time for him. He lied to me about the funeral and never wanted to chat. I was chasing him and he would always claim nothing was wrong but when i said i thought he used me when he was down he could not handle it and would always tell me he didnt care and to go away. I would get so upset i would try texting him to work it out he would barelt respond and if he did he would not be nice about it.
we did hang out a couple times after that, he would ignore me after. One day i was like hey i think you are seeing someone else, and i was like well ixam seeing someone so no problem if you are he said " buy bye good luck with your new guy stop contacting me" i was devastated and tried to get into contact with him for weeks then i just gave up and accepted it was over. He ended up contacting me a month later acting like everything was fine. He wanted to go out and have drinks i told him i would. He and i both seemed to have a great time. He ends up ignoring me again. I kept texting him trying to figure out what was wrong. He kept saying everything was fine and i said ok can we hang out again? He said maybe i was like why? He just kept saying maybe …
our last conversation we had… i said what is wrong ? He said nothing is wrong everything is fine. I asked him why he keeps saying maybe. He said " maybe but i dont want to see you right now" i said why? He saix " im just not feeling it, if i wanted to date i would" i said why did you contact me less then a week ago wanting to go out? He said i didnt.. even though he did. So i said should i just move on or what? He said whatever you want to do. So i said that he was really confusing me and asked him if he had anything more to say before i move on? My messages were turning green so i panicked he blocked me and reacted irrationally. I said " omg did you block me? My messages are not going through. Even texted him on my work phone asking what was up. And called him twice ( please dont judge me i know it is pathetic i never was this type of girl before him) so he replied and said " Ok I'll block you now" then immedietly blocked me. He has never blocked me before since I have met him he will just ghost. Is this ths final discard aka " grand finale? Did i just push him too far?
this has upset me so much its hard to even function.
Based on my personal experience, my daughter's and friends, it most often does offer these results. However, it can also be messy, time consuming, incomplete (as in, not working on all hairs consistently) and irritating to your skin. To be fair, shaving can also have these drawbacks with the addition of the chance of nicking yourself.
