Patient's question:
Because of a certain illness, I have been unable to stop taking medication for a long time. Due to the medication, my endocrine system has become problematic. Now, I want to stop taking the medication and regulate my body. What methods are used to treat hirsutism caused by endocrine disorders in women?Doctor's answer:
Hirsutism caused by endocrine disorders in women is generally due to excessive excretion of androgens and insufficient excretion of estrogens. When treating this condition, estrogen medication should be taken under the guidance of a doctor to regulate the balance. Additionally, in daily diet, it is recommended to consume more estrogen-rich foods such as soy products, milk, and kudzu root powder, while reducing the intake of androgen-rich foods like animal organs and beef or lamb. Existing body hair can be removed through laser hair removal.
