(1) Ovarian lesions: The most common is bilateral polycystic ovary syndrome. It is mainly caused by the hypothalamus's regulatory disorder of pituitary function, or the lack of certain enzymes in the ovaries themselves. When suffering from this disease, in addition to not ovulating, 70% of patients have excessive hair on the lips, areola, forearms, calves, etc. Ovarian tumors may also appear hirsutistic.

(2) Adrenal diseases: adrenal gonadal syndrome, adrenal cortical tumors, Cushing's syndrome, etc. can all increase the level of male hormones in the human body and cause hirsutism.

(3) Pituitary lesions: The pituitary gland secretes various gonadotropins, which play an important coordinating role in various hormones in the body. When there are lesions in the pituitary gland, such as acromegaly, pituitary tumors, etc., it can lead to hirsutism.

(4) Brain and hypothalamic lesions: such as multiple sclerosis, obesity, encephalitis, etc., may also cause hirsutism.

(5) Other endocrine diseases: such as hypothyroidism.

(6) Irrational use of drugs: Excessive use of corticosteroids, androgens, nandrolone phenylpropionate, etc. can also cause hirsutism.

In short, the difference in the amount of body hair between individuals is normal.
