EnglishThe treatment of hirsutism is based on a dual approach: pharmacological therapy of hyperandrogenism and removal of terminal hairs already present. Ovarian suppression of androgen secretion with oral contraceptives is widely used in these women, but its efficacy as sole agent appears limited. The most reliable medical therapy for hirsutism is the antiandrogen drugs. However, these drugs are only partially effective on terminalized hairs, and removal of these hairs is generally required. Electrolysis and laser photothermolysis appear to be the most effective cosmetic procedures, although the effects of these methods should not be considered permanent.
