    Glossary Cutaneous Hyperandrogenism

    excess male hormones in skin causing hair growth and acne

    Cutaneous Hyperandrogenism refers to a condition where there is an excess of androgens (male hormones) in the skin, leading to symptoms such as excessive hair growth (hirsutism), acne, and oily skin. This condition is often associated with disorders like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and can affect both men and women, though it is more commonly diagnosed in women.
