A Guide for Treating Hirsutism

    Overview

    Hirsutism is a condition when women have excessive hair on the face and body. This condition sometimes is due to an underlying problem. Your doctor is most likely to refer you to an endocrinologist (hormonal disorders) and dermatologist (skin-related issues) for the treatment.

    Hirsutism is a frequent clinical concern in women, and the therapy is determined by the underlying reason. The illness is frequently linked to low self-esteem. Hirsutism is caused by a combination of circulating androgen levels, local androgen levels, and the susceptibility of the hair follicle to androgens.
