I 100% agree that anyone suffering should get their GP to do the relavent tests and if needed refer to an endocrinologist. What you do not want is for the GP to make assumptions and pawn you off with some anti androgenic BCP, which is what happened to the OP.

But the unfortunate fact is, if you have no other symptoms than excess hair, in many cases there is no strict hormonal problem that needs addressing. The only thing you can do is get rid of the hair, temporarily or permanently.

As I mentioned before, no drugs can reverse what has happened. Just stop the stimulation of new follicles. Some women have actually found out about their hormonal conditions when they are undergoing electrolysis and find that the hair keeps coming back.

So if someone does have a hormonal condition, do they need electrolysis for the rest of their lives?
