You said that you got your fibroadenomas removed on the right side. After that your hair growth in right armpit is less.
I suggest for the time being you should concentrate on any lumps or nodules or painful spots. You can get a sonomammography done. If there is same state as it was 2 months ago when you got fibroadenomas removed, you can breath easy.
Your awareness and your regular check up are more important than the hair growth.
Hair growth is significant if it leads us to a disease process. Apparently there is no disease process as on today.
