Patient's question:
Today I suddenly noticed that my beard is longer than before, and there are also (long) hairs under my two eye corners. The same goes for both sides of my nose. I am a woman, a mother of two children, and 25 years old. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
Generally, women with excessive facial hair and hair growth are primarily due to a continuous increase in the excretion of androgens in the body, or the increased sensitivity of local hair follicles to androgens. It is recommended that you revisit the hospital for a follow-up examination to rule out various conditions. You can undergo a thorough hormone level check and receive treatment based on the specific diagnosis.Generally, women with excessive facial hair and hair growth are primarily due to a continuous increase in the excretion of androgens in the body, or the increased sensitivity of local hair follicles to androgens.
