This article presents the findings of a study conducted in Turkey to determine the prevalence and degree of hirsutism in women of reproductive age. The study included a total of 5,282 patients, with 15.8% of them having hirsutism. The study found that the prevalence of hirsutism varied between geographical regions, with the Mediterranean region having the highest prevalence at 22.3% and the Southeastern Anatolia region having the lowest at 5.6%. The study also determined that the most important body areas contributing to hirsutism were the lower abdomen, thighs, chin, and upper lip. The study provides valuable information on the prevalence of hirsutism in Turkey and highlights the regional differences in its occurrence. [Extracted from the article] |
