Hirsutism Evaluation

More Than Just a Cosmetic Concern

Hirsutism, the growth of coarse dark hair in women in areas typical for men (face, chest, back), is often a sign of excess androgens (male hormones). While cosmetic solutions remove the hair, they don't stop it from coming back. We treat the underlying hormonal imbalance.

Common Causes

• Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): The most common cause, associated with irregular periods.
• Non-Classical CAH: A genetic adrenal enzyme deficiency.
• Idiopathic Hirsutism: Increased sensitivity of hair follicles to normal hormone levels.
• Rare Adrenal/Ovarian Tumors: Requiring immediate medical attention.

Our Treatment Protocol

We combine hormonal medications (like anti-androgens) with lifestyle changes. We also coordinate with dermatologists for hair removal procedures (Laser/Electrolysis) for a combined approach that yields long-lasting results.
