 ==Epidemiology and Demographics==
-Hirsutism only affects women, since the rising of [[androgens]] causes a male pattern of body hair, particularly in locations where women normally do not develop [[terminal hair]] within their [[puberty]] ([[chest hair|chest]], [[abdominal hair|abdomen]], back and [[facial hair|face]]). The medical term for excessive hair growth that affect both men and women is [[hypertrichosis]].
