Women's hormons are gone by the old age. Brests and *** are sagging, stomic is coming out and hair grow in all the wrong places...

A lot of women grow some thicker hair around the face (upper lip and chin) throughout their lives. This tends to get worse as they are older. However, most women pluck or bleach this hair.
With old women, I figure either their eyesight is too poor to pluck any more or they simply don't care any more!

After a woman goes through menopause, her body isn't producing as much estrogen. Estrogen is what keeps us from growing facial and excess body hair when we are young, so the lower amounts can't control it.
If a woman takes her daily hormone pill, she has less chance of growing facial hair, but many women forget or just don't care.

Because as you grow older estrogen production decreases and women tend to sprout hairs where they wouldn't normally

Oestrogens (predominantly female hormones) prevent excessive body hair and androgens (predominantly male hormones) promote it. This is why post-menopausal women who have less oestrogens and more androgens get excessive body hair.

because they produce less of the Oestrogen hormone which allows the androgens to have more effect.
