Hirsutism refers to the excessive growth of coarse, pigmented hair in women in a male-like distribution pattern, such as on the face, chest, abdomen, or back. It results from increased androgen levels or heightened sensitivity of hair follicles to androgens. Common causes include Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), congenital adrenal hyperplasia, Cushing’s syndrome, androgen-secreting tumors, or drug-induced hormonal imbalance (e.g., steroids, danazol).
Other contributing factors include genetic predisposition, obesity, insulin resistance, and endocrine dysfunction. While not life-threatening, hirsutism can cause emotional distress, low self-esteem, and cosmetic concern.

Homoeopathy aims to correct the underlying hormonal imbalance, regulate menstrual irregularities, and reduce excessive hair growth naturally by improving endocrine harmony and metabolism. Remedies are chosen based on individual constitution, associated symptoms, menstrual pattern, emotional temperament, and miasmatic background. With regular use, homoeopathic treatment helps normalize ovarian function, balance hormones, and reduce hair growth rate and coarseness, offering a gentle, non-hormonal therapeutic option.
