Q&A for How to Increase Chest Hair

Take testosterone supplements every day for about a month. You should start seeing results towards the end of that month.

Nothing really, but some people think that chest hair is a sign of manliness. It isn't. Every person is just different.

I have a fairly hairy chest, but only had a light amount in my early 20s (a patch and trail). It grew in thicker in my late 20s and early 30s. It's different for everybody. I recommend you try to be patient. Testosterone supplements should definitely be a last resort.

You can use minoxidil (brand name Rogaine).

It all depends on your genes, but somewhere between 11 and 16 years old.

Your best bet is to try to increase your testosterone. You should consult your doctor about this, as he/she will be best able to advise you on what course of action to take, whether that includes eating foods which lower estrogen and/or progesterone (the female sex hormones) levels, or starting a testosterone boosting supplement. In any case, ask your doctor, as some products you might purchase online could be dangerous.

You should consult your doctor about this. He/she will know what is best for you. Products bought online without the proper medical advice could be dangerous for you. In any case, ask your doctor before you begin taking new medication.

You just have to wait for your body to grow it, there's nothing proven to promote body hair growth. It varies from person to person how quickly the hair grows in.

It's possible, but not likely. Boys start developing hair on their bodies during puberty, so some boys could develop chest hair at that age if they begin developing early.

It depends on genetics. If you have mostly Mediterranean ancestry, for example, your chances of growing a lot of body hair are relatively high, and this usually starts with hairy legs at about age 14, followed by a hairy abdomen around 16, hairy chest and arms around 18 - 20. If you have mostly east Asian or Native American ancestry, you are unlikely to grow any body hair at all. The genetic difference is not just the presence and amount of testosterone in the system, but the sensitivity of the hair follicles to testosterone in different parts of the body. Chinese and Native American men have plenty of testosterone, but they rarely grow heavy full beards and body hair.
