PT helps with this

Initially this wasn't an issue but, as PT has helped with other symptoms, this one has become more prominent.

I have to trim my pubic hair every couple of weeks, because when it gets longer than about half an inch, it gets caught in the elastic of my undies and it hurts. I assume it is part of my vulvar sensitivity, but I'm not sure. For the last few years I have also been using Estrace, testosterone, and Lidocaine a couple of times a week, and I think they have helped ease this as well, but a trim fixes the discomfort quickly.

Not so much a pain but more of an irritation, and a dramatically uncomfortable tickle from clothing not experienced under normal conditions.
