Sounds like you got hormonal imbalance problem. This is mostly to do with the ovary. Check it out with your doctor.

I had back acne once. OMG. I never wore tank tops. Talk to your parents about some options and how this is affecting your self-asteem. Talk to them in a mature, calm voice and don't say something like, "But all the other girls in school don't have to deal with this!" They won't take you seriously if you do this. Don't choose shaving anywhere but your underarms and legs though because the hair doesn't grow back thicker, but ROUGHER. That's the last thing you want.

Hi its probably due to the hormone shift in your body and that causes hairs.
BUT unnatural area hair growth is a HGE sign of PCOS--a syndrome that although itsn't dangerous can be a big pain in the ****.
Just check this out & if you have other similar symtoms please bring it up with your doctor!! The faster you get it diagnosed, the faster it can be treated & the easier you can get through your puberty.
Meanwhile, check out veet or nair for sensitive skin and use it every 5 days or so, also purchase a razor and keep it in your gym bag for "emergencies".
There are a TON of products out there to assist you!! Trust me!! Introduce yourself to the hair removal isle of the drug store!!

wow. well I'm not trying to be racist (I'm chinese) but judging that you are Indian, they get alot of hair. I mean have you asked you mom for help? I mean parents are parents... they've been alive so much longer than you that they know just that much more.
I can relate a bit. I have humumgo scars on my chest and like It's really hard to see but I'm self concious about it.
I suggest using Veet on your arms and chest. But becarful about shaving, because if it grows back, you'll end up like shaving forever. You know prickly...
I do understand I mean. 12? I think telling your mom you want that stuff gone, she might even get you lazer hair removal like when you are 16. hey give up braces, and get that. you know braces cost thousands of dollars.
feel better. and if you need fashion tips about covering up the stuff, just email. you can look absolutly cool without tank tops

first off..don't get too freaked out..your body is different from others..i think you should def. wax your arms at least..and about your chest..try finding tanks that cover most of it. otherwise, wax that too..but when you get older, you should think about getting laser..if it really bothers you.

ok, it somewhat is diverse if it somewhat is butt hair as against crack hair... hahha. basically shave it. The hair around the nipples (on the areola) are commonplace (they could be very fantastic hairs, no longer something like pubic hair), yet i'm undecided approximately it spreading. decrease abdomen hair is commonplace too, basically shave it.

You're not alone! I'm really white, and I have really dark hair. So it shows up really gross on my arms! Haha. It's on my stomach too, but oh well. I just ignore it. My mom always tells me, if YOU don't notice or pay attention to it, no one else will.

I seriously don't know what to tell you.
See a doctor, like for real, maybe it's overactive hormones or something.
I'm being serious.
Have you told your mom?
If you haven't, you should.
WAX IT!!

theres this lotion. and when you put it on it melts the hair away but the hair grows back in about a week. you should try it.
