Mixed form of hirsutism in an adolescent female and laser therapy.
[congenital adrenal hyperplasia]
Hirsutism
is
a
common
disorder
of
excess
growth
of
terminal
hair
in
an
androgen-dependent
male
distribution
in
women
,
including
the
chin
,
upper
lip
,
breasts
,
back
,
and
abdomen
.
It
is
very
important
to
identify
the
etiology
of
hirsutism
and
adequate
treat
is
prior
to
any
cosmetic
therapy
.
The
case
was
a
17
-
year
-old
female
with
severe
hirsutism
,
oligomenorrhea
,
and
obesity
.
She
was
evaluated
to
identify
the
etiology
and
diagnosed
as
a
case
of
polycystic
ovarian
syndrome
(
PCOS
)
,
nonclassic
congenital
adrenal
hyperplasia
(
NC-
CAH
)
,
and
hyperandrogenic
insulin
-resistant
acanthosis
nigricans
(
HAIR-AN
)
syndrome
,
which
is
a
rare
combination
of
hirsutism
etiology
.
She
was
successfully
treated
according
to
the
underlying
pathology
,
and
laser
photoepilation
was
used
as
the
preferred
hair
removal
method
.
Establishing
the
etiology
,
using
the
evidence-based
strategies
to
improve
hirsutism
,
and
treating
the
underlying
disorder
,
are
essential
for
proper
management
of
women
with
hirsutism
.
