| Hirsutism |
Okay, Hirsutism is just an ugly word to begin
with. The fact that it means "male pattern
hair growth" makes it even worse.
Nothing makes you feel more like a woman
than having to shave your face more often
than your husband. Am I right?
It's just a sad fact that if you have an excess
of male hormones, then you are more than
likely going to have some male hair growth.
It's gross, inconvenient, embarrassing, and
depressing, believe me I know.

Hirsutism
Hirsutism can cause hair growth on such unwanted areas as face, arm,
leg, stomach, feet and toes, back, chest and nipples and some other
unmentionable places.
The good news is that there all kinds of ways to remove unwanted hair
and the list is growing everyday. Shaving and depilatory creams are
always an option as well as laser hair removal and electrolysis are also
there if you can afford them.
If your hirsutism is really bothering you and you are having trouble
finding relief, talk to your doctor about it. There are some medications
that can be taken to slow or thin out your hair growth, but only you and
your doctor can decide if these medications are right for you.
