This growth indicates a dude has now attained sexual maturity and their body is ready to procreate. In our conversation with obstetrician and gynaecologist, Dr Shivani Sabharwal from Apollo Spectra Hospital, she told us that: “Pubic hair has an array of biological benefits and takes care of your intimate parts. In fact, a lack of pubic hair on the onset of puberty could be indicative of underlying health issues.” 2. It provides warmth to your nether region Pubic hair is also known to keep the genital area warm and moist, without which your skin would dry out and start chafing due to lack of sweat and moisture. 3. It diffuses pheromones Pheromones are odours produced by the body that attracts sexual partners. While some people have a very strong scent, others have odours that are not quite as noticeable to others. The odour can be trapped by the pubic hair because of its density. “Pubic hair plays a role in capturing and emitting pheromones from the genitals into the air and has a role to play in sexual attraction,” says Dr Sabharwal. 4. It reduces friction Pubic hair is also there to ease friction between body parts during sexual intercourse, without which you can experience skin irritations. It also reduces friction between your manhood and clothing. The presence of pubic hair makes the skin down there less susceptible to chafing or rashes. The idea of having pubic hair doesn’t seem all that bad now does it? Of course, to keep it or lose it is a completely personal choice, but at least now you can make an informed one.
