Everybody has hair all over their body. A lot of it is just too fine to see. So you are a little bit hairier than other girls. Freckles are just genetic and don't hurt you any. These little differences in people are just what makes the world go around.

Do you have regular menstrual cycles? If yes, this might be the problem, if no, this is probably the problem.
Irregular Menses May Indicate Problem
By Flash Gordon, M.D.
Polycystic ovary syndrome is often underdiagnosed. Most women with the condition have had irregular menses from the time they started menstruating. If your menses were regular, but then became infrequent, your doctor needs to look for other causes for your irregular menses. The syndrome also tends to cause the growth of excessive body hair, acne, obesity and hair loss.
Women with the syndrome have many small cysts on their ovaries, which are visible on ultrasound. Blood tests showing high levels of male hormone, such as androstenedione, dehydroepiandosterone sulfate (DHEAS) or testosterone, can confirm the diagnosis. Doctors may order other blood tests to make sure you don't have problems with the other organs that are involved in the body's hormonal system. These organs include the thyroid, adrenal gland and pituitary.
It's important to find out if you do have polycystic ovary syndrome, as it can lead to diabetes and an increased risk of postmenopausal heart problems. Some studies show that problems associated with the syndrome are caused by insulin resistance, which leads to higher insulin levels in the body. Treatment with commonly used oral diabetes medications, such as metformin or troglitazone, can reverse the condition within a few months. Contact your doctor if you think you may have the syndrome

Everyone has many hair follicles, as many as your average gorilla, but it is the percent of the follicles that are activated and producing hair that is what the genetics we get are about. But it is even more than genetics too. Hormones play a big roll too. Females who have higher levels of masculinizing hormones have more hair follicles activated, and thus more hair than females who don't have these hormone levels. In fact, females who went on masculinizing hormones like testosterone would become very hairy in the hair patterns similar to the males in their family genepool. They'd grow beards, chest, leg, arm hair in a much thicker way. So the hair growth of puberty in BOTH males and females is due to testosterone levels increasing. Females testosterone comes from their adrenal glands since females don't have testes. Some females have male hair growth patterns: around nipples, above pubic hair line but mid-verticle, also on their face, on arms and legs too. Some will go to doctor and be sure there is not a serious hormonal problem, but many will just go pay the expense of laser hair removal.
Freckles are genetics too, (gene for freckling, esp stronger in redheads) but keeping skin from exposure to the sun helps keep freckles # down. As we age too, freckles seem to fade and diminish in number and size. BTW, t-shirts only give spf safety of 6, so be sure to wear sunscreen even under t-shirts.

It's normal. Every woman is different, some are more hairy and some are less. That is a normal range of human body hair growth.
Sounds like you need a guy who will appreciate your beauty and touch you every where you want to be touched.

Depends on your genetics. Some races have more hair than others...sometimes your family is just hairy. My roomate is from Brazil/Portuguese and she is really hairy! She says her whole family is hairy. Oh...and the freckles...it's totally normal to have them pretty much anywhere! Specially if your skin is very fair.

I had hair growing in places like that too. I went to the doctor and found out that my body was making to much testosterone. I was put on estrogen pills, now most of it has stopped growing. If you think it's a problem go see your doctor, otherwise most hair is a normal human thing.

Check into the PCOS (as mentioned in another earlier reply). There is information available online. It is worth seeing a doctor about. If not treated it can lead to other serious problems. Good luck to you.

If you eat alot of spice like chili onions they can cause hair growth. That really sucks but at least you still get yours.
And technology works wonders, save up and get lazer hair removal for those unwanted hair places. I want to

Having hair all over your body is just proof that you are a mammal. If you feel you have excessive hair, I recommend you discuss it with you doctor. In most cities, there are hair removal salons that use lasers to take away unwanted hair.

everyone has hair all over their body , some hair are lighter and finer than others and some are darker and coarser. so yes, it is normal. as far as your freckles are concerned, you have them where the sun has touched your skin. and since sun penetrates through layer of clothing you might have them in places which are normally covered every day.
