Medical Services Hirsutism Hirsutism is defined as the excessive growth of hair on the face, chest, back, abdomen, upper arms and legs of women. Besides being a cosmetic concern, hirsutism may be a sign of an underlying hormonal disorder and a prompt evaluation for the cause of hirsutism is recommended. Excessive hair growth may be due to high levels of male hormones in the blood or increased sensitivity to the male hormones. Once a hair follicle has started to grow thicker and darker it usually can not be changed back and requires electrolysis for permanent removal. Hirsutism is often treated with a combination of hormonal therapy to lower male hormone levels, medications that inhibit the action of male hormones at the hair follicle and cosmetic treatments such as electrolysis, shaving and bleaching and laser.

Home Medical Dictionary Contact Us About Us ... PCOS and Hirsutism PCOS and Hirsutism Approximately 10% of women have polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Women with PCOS experience increased body hair (hirsutism), increased weight and infertility due to both lack of ovulation and recurrent miscarriage. In addition, women with PCOS are subject to a markedly increased risk of heart disease, endometrial cancer and possibly breast cancer. If you have menstrual irregularities, you may have PCOS. At Cedars-Sinai, our physicians are actively evaluating new ways of diagnosing and treating this potentially devastating condition. We are conducting several exciting studies to assess new diagnostic tests and promising new therapies for PCOS. Some women with PCOS also have hirsutism, but not all women with hirsutism have PCOS. Hirsutism is excessive body hair on a woman, similar to that of a man. Affecting approximately seven percent of women ages 18 to 45 years, hirsutism may indicate the presence of other hormonal problems that require examination. The most common cause of hirsutism is an extra amount of male hormones or androgens. Symptoms PCOS symptoms vary widely and are similar to symptoms for other conditions. Therefore, women with these symptoms do not necessarily have PCOS.

This hair may grow on the chin, upper lip, side of the face, breasts, stomach and thighs. The growth of thick, dark hair in these places may be accepted as normal by some cultures. But in others it can cause a great deal of distress for the woman. This growth is caused by male hormones (androgens). The most powerful of these male hormones is testosterone. All women normally have a certain level male hormones circulating in their blood.

Speciality Spotlight Hirsutism Y Sahin, S Dilber, and F Kelestimur (Erciyes University Medical School) Comparison of Diane 35 and Diane 35 plus finasteride in the treatment of hirsutism Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of the combination of Diane 35 (2mg of cyproterone acetate, and 35 mg of ethinyl estradiol) plus finasteride (5mg), and Diane 35 alone in the treatment of hirsutism. Design: Prospective randomised clinical study. Intervention(s): For 1 year, group 1 patients (n=20) were treated with Diane 35 alone (2 mg of cyproterone acetate and 35 mg of ethinyl estradiol) daily on days 5 to 25 of the menstrual cycle and group 2 patients (n=20) with Diane 35 plus finasteride (5mg daily). Main Outcome Measure(s): Hirsutism was graded at 6-month intervals using the Ferriman-Gallwey method. The basal hormone levels of total and free testosterone (T), androstenedione, DHEAS and sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG) were measured by radioimmunoassay before the study. Total T, free T, SHBG, and DHEAS were also measured at 6-month intervals for 1 year. Multiscreen blood chemistry and side effects were evaluated during the treatment. Discussion: Cyproterone acetate is a powerful progrestogen that also acts as an antiandrogen at target sites. CPA is generally used in combination with oral ethinyl estradiol. The beneficial effect of CPA plus ethinyl estradiol seems to be related to the decrease in the plasma levels of total T and free T, A, DHT, and 3a-diol glucuronide (3a-diol G), and to the increase in SHBG concentrations.

Browse by Review Group A substantive amendment to this systematic review was last made on 17 July 2003. Cochrane reviews are regularly checked and updated if necessary. Background: Hirsutism is a distressing and relatively common endocrine problem in women which may prove difficult to manage. Cyproterone acetate, an anti-androgen, is frequently used to treat hirsutism, usually in combination with ethinyl estradiol. Objectives: The objective of this review was to investigate the effectiveness of cyproterone acetate alone, or in combination with ethinyl estradiol, in reducing hair growth in women with hirsutism secondary to ovarian hyperandrogenism. Search strategy: The Cochrane Menstrual Disorders and Subfertility Group trials register was searched (last search - 4 June 2002). The Cochrane Menstrual Disorders and Subfertility Group register is based on regular searches of MEDLINE (1966 to 2002), EMBASE (1980 to 2002), CINAHL (1982 to 2002), PsycINFO (1987 to 2002) and CENTRAL (Issue 2, 2002 of the Cochrane Library) the handsearching of several journals and conference proceedings, and searches of several key grey literature sources. All publications of randomised controlled trials of cyproterone acetate with or without estrogen versus placebo or other drug therapies for hirsutism were identified.

Hirsutism is a condition in which there is excessive growth of hair on the face or body. Although hirsutism can occur in both men and women, it is usually only a problem for women. Women with hirsutism have dark, thick hair on their face, chest, abdomen and back. This thick, dark hair is different from the hair that some women have on their upper lip, chin, breasts or stomach, or the fine "baby" hair all over their body. What causes hirsutism? Hirsutism can be caused by hair follicles that are overly sensitive to male hormones (called androgens), or it can be caused by abnormally high levels of these hormones. A very high level of male hormones may be caused by tumors. Some medicines can cause excessive hair growth. These medicines include birth control pills, hormones and anabolic steroids. Women of Mediterranean ancestry, Middle-Eastern women, Hispanic women and African-American women tend to have more body hair than women from other ethnic groups. Hirsutism seems to run in families. Your family doctor may want to do some tests to find out what is causing the hirsutism. When should I see my doctor about hirsutism?

Health Newsfeed # 1157 HIRSUTISM When does body hair go from being a cosmetic problem to a medical one? Nearly all women have some hair usually very fine on their lips and chins. It's perfectly normal. But when body hair starts appearing in unusual places, such as the back or middle of the chest, it may signal a condition doctors call hirsutism. Hirsutism is often the result of a hormonal imbalance. In many cases the woman's ovaries are secreting too much of the male hormone testosterone, bringing unwanted male characteristics such as a deeper voice and even baldness. The condition can be treated with various medications, including birth control pills, but Johns Hopkins endocrinologist Dr. Adrian Dobs says there are no quick fixes. Hirsutism is a long term problem. There's no magical answer to this from a hormonal point of view. Even medical therapies may take months or even years to show a significant difference. Diagnosing hirsutism may seem easy, but it's not. Body hair varies widely among human beings, and deciding what's abnormal can be a little tricky.

"Punka, juldi, Manga." Manga bobbed her head and turned towards the door. "There's no cord on it," Camilla hirsutism "I beg your pardon?" "There's no cord attached to the punkah no wonder it's not moving." All of the women looked up at the punkah. Camilla was right. There should have been a cord attached to one end of the punkah flap, a cord ascending up past the muslin sheets to the roof space, and to pulleys which led it sideways, through a gap in the upper wall and then down to the verandah. Carol shook her hirsutism in disbelief at Indian inefficiency: "How tiresome. Now we'll . . . " Her mouth stopped moving, lips agape in her tilted back head as the sound of tearing cloth came from above the pool. A knife blade had appeared in the muslin ceiling sheet directly overhead, slashing a gap a yard long in the fabric. The cut spread, both longways and across, as if the sheet was being pulled on at the edges, opening up like a split sail in a gale. Each of the watchers was astonished to see, revealed in the gap, a young Indian boy lying on one of the roof beams, his legs wrapped around it with all the unthinking agility of a monkey, the shiny new knife in his hand matching the vivid white teeth displayed in a wide grin. None hirsutism the woman had the faintest notion of what could be going on; puzzlement compounded by the sight of the punkah cord being held steady in the boy's hand, with a large round glass-like object hanging from the end of it. The boy shouted, the cord began to run through his fingers, the object dropped, within eight feet of the surface of the pool before stopping again and Camilla Hartley-Dexter screamed in fear. What was hanging from four securing loops at the bottom of the cord was a large transparent glass bowl, open topped and with steeply curved sides, like the ones used to keep hirsutism in. But there was no water inside this bowl and the mass of wriggling bodies trying to climb the smooth sides were not gold in color but green. Small green snakes, each about six inches long and instantly recognizable as green kraits the deadliest snakes on the entire subcontinent. All that was needed was for the bowl to continue its fall into the water and the whole mass of deadly reptiles would be tipped out of their small prison into the larger confines of the pool.
