Overview
The diagnosis of hirsutism requires the exclusion of related disorders with peripheral androgen activity. Hirsutism starts shortly after puberty with a slow course and progression.
Differential Diagnosis
Hirsutism must be differentiated based on the different diseases causing hirsutism such as 21-hydroxylase deficiency, 11-β hydroxylase deficiency, 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency, Polycystic ovary syndrome , Cushing's syndrome, and hyperprolactinemia.[1][2][3]
| Disease name | Steroid status | Other laboratory | Important clinical findings |
