Sponsor's own description

Hirsutism is defined as the excessive presence of terminal hairs in the androgen-sensitive areas of the female body, and it is one of the frequent reasons for presenting to dermatology outpatient clinics. Hirsutism influences 5% to 10% of women around the world and leads to psychological problems depending on ethnic and socio-cultural factors. It also causes material burden including medicines, cosmetic products and epilation procedures. The differences in the real prevalence of hirsutism in the Turkish population and the hirsutism prevalence and severity between the geographical regions of Turkey are not known. In this study, we aimed to determine the prevalence of hirsutism in women at the reproductive age within Turkey. The geographical regions of Turkey comprise seven regions and and all regions were included in this study. By considering the regions where ethnic differences were high including the east-west-south and north of our country, we aimed to find an answer to the question of whether there were differences in terms of the prevalence and severity of hirsutism among these regions. A comprehensive study aiming to determine the prevalence of hirsutism in Turkey has not been conducted.
