What should I do if I have excessive body hair all over?

　　Having excessive body hair all over may be caused by genetic factors, puberty, hirsutism, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), hypothyroidism, and other conditions. Improvements can be made according to the specific situation. It is recommended to visit a hospital promptly and receive treatment under a doctor's guidance.

　　1. Genetic factors: An individual's hair density and distribution may be influenced by genetics. If there are family members with hirsutism, the likelihood of developing hirsutism increases. It is recommended to reduce body hair either locally or overall through methods such as laser hair removal or electrolysis. These methods can destroy hair follicles and prevent hair regrowth.

　　2. Puberty: During puberty, changes in sex hormone levels stimulate hair follicle growth, leading to increased body hair, especially in areas with male characteristics such as the face, chest, and abdomen. Usually, no specific treatment is required, as hormone levels stabilize after puberty and body hair growth naturally slows down.

　　3. Hirsutism: This condition is usually caused by elevated androgen levels or increased sensitivity, characterized by excessive and dense hair growth all over the body. It is often accompanied by symptoms such as acne, menstrual irregularities, and a deepening voice. Patients can take medications such as spironolactone tablets, finasteride tablets, and bromocriptine mesylate tablets under a doctor's guidance to improve symptoms.

　　4. Polycystic ovary syndrome: This condition is commonly associated with metabolic and hormonal factors. Patients' ovaries secrete excessive amounts of androgens, leading to symptoms such as generalized hirsutism and acne. Ovarian dysfunction may also cause menstrual disorders and infertility. It is recommended to take medications such as dydrogesterone tablets, dexamethasone tablets, and letrozole tablets under a doctor's guidance for treatment.

　　5. Hypothyroidism: This condition is typically caused by insufficient thyroid hormone secretion, which may lead to metabolic and hormonal imbalances, causing symptoms of generalized hirsutism. It may also be accompanied by fatigue, weight gain, constipation, dry skin, and other symptoms. Patients can alleviate discomfort by taking medications such as levothyroxine sodium tablets, thyroid extract tablets, and Yikang capsules under a doctor's guidance.

　　During treatment, patients should maintain a positive mindset and cooperate with the doctor's treatment recommendations to achieve recovery as soon as possible.
