See a doctor if

  • Sudden or rapid onset of excessive hair growth, especially in combination with other symptoms like irregular menstrual cycles or acne
  • Persistent or worsening hair growth that does not respond to standard hair removal methods
  • Accompanying symptoms like weight gain, fatigue, or changes in mood or energy levels
  • Any signs of virilization, such as a deepening of the voice or enlargement of the clitoris

Everyday tips

  • Consult a healthcare professional to identify and address the underlying cause of the excessive hair growth
  • Explore safe and effective hair removal methods, such as shaving, waxing, or laser hair removal, to manage the appearance of unwanted hair
  • Maintain a healthy diet and exercise routine, as these can help regulate hormone levels and potentially reduce hair growth
