What is the meaning of the existence of pubic hair
In the primitive era when human beings did not wear pants, pubic hair played a protective function of protecting the vagina, avoiding the invasion of foreign bodies and germs and maintaining hygiene. In sexual life, the main function of pubic hair is to reduce friction during intercourse and avoid damage to the raised mons pubis.
At the same time, the presence of pubic hair can reduce friction between sexual organs and clothing, or the intense contact that occurs when walking and exercising, just as the presence of armpit hair can reduce friction between arms and armpits.
In terms of maintaining ventilation, the presence of pubic hair can also keep the reproductive organs ventilated and avoid getting too wet.
In terms of pubic hair-related diseases, pubic lice can be said to be one of the more common. Generally speaking, whether it is sexual behavior, sharing underwear or covering a quilt, etc., it is possible to infect pubic lice through contact.
Therefore, personal hygiene must be paid more attention to. If you are unfortunately infected with pubic lice, it is better to shave your pubic hair to cut off the space for pubic lice to grow.
In addition, if the underwear is improperly selected, it will also cause unnecessary involvement in the pubic hair, which may cause the symptoms of hair follicle inflammation, and then grow small indurations.
