How often should a woman shave her pubic hair in Islam?

Published in Islamic Hygiene 1 min read

In Islam, women should remove their pubic hair at least once every 40 days, starting from menarche. This practice is part of Islamic hygiene etiquettes.

Here's a breakdown:

  • Minimum Frequency: According to religious guidelines, pubic hair removal should occur no less frequently than every 40 days. [13, 20].
  • Starting Point: This practice should begin at menarche (the start of menstruation).

Therefore, while there's no maximum frequency specified, neglecting pubic hair removal for longer than 40 days is discouraged.
