Hair loss is a topic that concerns a lot of us.
Some lose their hair because of hormone therapy, some because of strong meds they have to take, some because of hormone imbalances in their body and for some it’s just in their genes. Most can’t really do much against it, which feels scary when you realise it starts happening. But I want you all to know that it’s absolutely okay to lose hair. You are still beautiful and worthy of so so much love! <3

WHAT IS INTERSEX?
Intersex people are born with atypical sex characteristics: it relates to a range of variations in sex autonomy. That is, physical variations in chromosomes, gonads, sex hormones or genitals.
Many different forms of intersex exist; it is an umbrella term, rather than a single category.  Some intersex people identify within a binary
gender system. Some see themselves outside of any binary - biological and identity wise.

For more info, go on YouTube an look for “What is Intersex? (Pt1)” by Hans Lindahl.
