Overview

Secondary Prevention

Preventing hirsutism from further development depends on the underlying cause. For example, losing weight for women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may help.

Studies suggest that obese women with PCOS may be less likely to develop hirsutism if they eat a low-calorie diet.[1]
