The difference between normal facial hair and hirsutism is the color, density, and texture of the hair. Hair becomes thick, thick and dark. This may be due to virilization or excess androgens.
A sudden change in the pattern of facial hair means that your body is signaling that something has changed. It can signal a hormonal imbalance caused by a medical condition or medication side effect.
For example:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This condition affects up to 15 percent of women of reproductive age and is caused by a hormonal imbalance with elevated androgen levels. Usually there is a family history. Many women are unaware that they have PCOS. This condition can cause facial hair growth, irregular periods, ovarian cysts, weight gain, and acne.
