Brief Answer:
PLEASE ELABORATE
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Is it actually hair you are talking about ?
You might be having long hair which is getting shed during a shower and then you would be having it all over your private parts.
Or are you referring to long stringy mucus which is quite common to have during certain parts of the menstrual cycle ?
There is no way actual hair can come out of the vagina , obviously.
Could you elaborate on this rather unusual complaint ?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Take care.

it is actual hair cause when i dry down there i can see the hair hanging so i pull on it and i can feel it coming out of my vagina
Brief Answer:
HAIR CANNOT COME FROM IN THERE
Detailed Answer:
Actual hair cannot originate from the vagina.
Do you have long hair ?
Try and observe if a few strands are shed in the shower and thats what you are finding down there.
That is the only logical explanation.

yes i have long hair yes i lose hair in the shower but it wouldnt go inside of my vagina. i know what i see and feel i can feel it coming out so its not just laying there. it has to be something and it scares me
Brief Answer:
DONT WORRY
Detailed Answer:
Trust me it has to be coming from your scalp.
Hair might be shed even during the day and often it slides in the crevices in the private parts, so when you pull it out, it feels like it is coming from down there.
Since you are so scared, please see a doctor for an internal exam , that will reassure you.
Next time you feel one coming out, before pulling, just take a snap and upload it here.
I will also try and opine.
Take care.
