Why Do I Have Hirsutism? The Causes [CC]

There is an assumption that if you have hirsutism then you have PCOS - polycystic ovarian syndrome. But that's not always the case. A lot of you resonated with my video on hirsutism and PCOS and how I manage the excess hair (that video is here: • How to Manage Hirsutis... ) - but I realised that many may not have hirsutism because of PCOS which is why I thought to look at some of the other causes of hirsutism and I'm going to share that with you.

I wish l watched this information 35 years ago if it were available then! Hirsutism, hormones, tumors, PCOS, testosterone…..all these issues probably contributed to my hirsutism throughout the years and you’ve mentioned things l never would have discovered about this topic on my own. I just learned to put up with it period. Having undergone a hysterectomy as of late is the direct reason of years of nasty female problems that l thought was what every female went through and that l was normal, only to find out late in life that having a bulky uterus & endometrium, a prolapsed uterus, a tumour, fibroids, severe hormonal waves, heavy bleeding, years spent in bed rest during episodes could have been dealt with a long time ago! You are a breath of fresh air with the wealth of information that you offer on your wonderful channel. The best part is that your channel is reaching women who could very well be experiencing the same types of symptoms and this in turn would be of great benefit to those of us who need a gentle push in figuring out what defines normal or abnormal female problems.
You are doing society a favour, describing what you personally have experienced and learnt along the way, and for that l am grateful for your channel.
Thank you very much!

It's maddening and sad how we just put up with things because we're told it's normal - just because people experience it, suffer through it - somehow we're all meant to do the same and soon it becomes normal.
I am amazed at alll that you have gone through. I hope you finally experience some relief after the hysterectomy. I hope you're taking the time to recover. A hysterectomy needs that.
Ooo.. I also have to say a huggggee thank you to you. Your words have been extremely kind and encouraging. Thank you for taking the time to share your story which helps a lot of women out there. And thank you for taking the time to support me.
Thank you - eat right and recover well :)

@@FootprintsNoBoundariesByShruti Hello Shruti, keep being who you are as your warmth & compassion is contagious! Everything you project on this channel can & has the capacity to be paid forward :) :) :)
I have taken your advice regarding my case and am taking it very easy & slow.
Eating well is something my immune system needs right now, & l have taken your advice about the importance of consuming nutrition that will be beneficial to aid my body in the
post operative healing process.
I will keep you & your subscribers up to date, regardless if there are negative or positive outcomes arising from taking the hysterectomy avenue.
One can only hope that people who catch your posts will make more educated decisions about themselves & their bodies & can effectively benefit positively. Passing on experiences & knowledge is key to helping others who are struggling with their own health & haven’t a clue how to approach it…..just like me.
Cheers from me.

@@sofiamiliaressis5403 I'm extremely humbled here. I cannot explain how much your support means. It truly helps to keep me on my path. But what's even more special is that the advice is helping you, that you're feeling like you've gained information. All I wish to do is provide that value. So thank you for telling me that it is.
And yes yes yes.... please keep us all updated on your journey, we'd love to know more and learn from you.
Good luck and take care of yourself.

hi Sofia,
i have hirtuism too, which could be caused by high cortisol.
But i also have heavy cramping during my periods, i know that this cant be normal because i already passed out.
How did you find out about your bulky uterus?
Is this noticeable durig vaginal sonography?
My hormones allegedly are ok, maybe too less progesterone, will haveto ask my doctor if i´m assuming right. I do have ovalluations.
Have you had that too with bulky uterus?
My Gyn just told me it could be endometriosis, but as lon as i´m able to birth a child she´s not willing to transfer me to the hospital for the surgery. Also i would have no cyst.
Oh well, then..if i only have cramps until i faint....sure..no need to do something. I mean ´´only´ every 3-4 weeks.common..i should get myelf together.
I´m sorry for what you´ve gone through all the years. Idk why doctors ignore womens health only to save a coin.😭
