European Consensus on the Evaluation of Women Presenting with Excessive Hair Growth

The European Consensus on the evaluation of women presenting with excessive hair growth aimed to develop clinical practice guidance for assessing hirsutism in premenopausal women. Led by an international interdisciplinary team of experts from various dermatology and medical institutions, the Skin Academy utilized the latest scientific and clinical data to promote best practices and improve patient care. Through systematic reviews, group meetings, conference calls, and email communications, the team created an evaluation form for clinicians. This consensus paper and the accompanying Diagnostic Evaluation Form were intended for discussion and use by the broader dermatology community.
