Excessive androgens in general may cause hairiness.
Androgen is an endocrine hormone secreted by the gonads (testes), which is an important hormone for maintaining normal libido and reproductive function. Excessive androgen in men usually results in increased hairiness (armpit hair, pubic hair, lip hair, etc.), seborrheic alopecia, and high libido. In women, hyperandrogenism can easily induce symptoms such as enlarged pores, irregular menstruation, infertility, and even beard growth.
In addition, high androgen may also be caused by pathologic reasons, and it is necessary to go to the hospital to investigate the cause of elevated androgen for further treatment.
It is recommended that patients with abnormal androgen hormones go to the hospital in time for targeted treatment under the guidance of the doctor, so as to avoid delaying the condition and causing adverse consequences.
