Hirsutism is the development of androgen-dependent terminal body hair in a woman and in other places where this type of hair is not normally found in women. Remember a woman's definition of hirsutism may differ secondary to her ethnic background. Any definition of normal body hair should consider both race and ethnicity. For example, most Asian and/or Native American women have little body hair, while most women from the Mediterranean have moderately heavy body hair. However, the most important consideration in diagnosing hirsutism is the extent to which a woman's normal pattern of hair growth has changed. Although hirsutism can occur in both men and women, it is usually only a problem for women.

Excessive body hair growth in females is often seen in females with polycystic ovarian disease (PCOS) which can cause problems with oestrogen. Hirsutism may also be complicated with many other gynecology problems. Classic Chinese medical practices have recognized that excessive facial hair in women can be treated via what is called the chong meridian which is known as the "Sea of Blood". TCM acupuncturists use this meridian to treat many different menstrual disorders as part of their treatment regime. Research on acupuncture for hirsutism has shown that it can be helpful and acupuncture is a safe and natural alternative treatment for this condition.
