ABSTRACT
Hirsutism is a symptom of excessive androgen secretion in women, which in recent years is becoming more common. It is a problem of physical, mental and social background and patients always require application of an appropriate therapy Today's medicine offers a wide variety of treatments for the disease, each of which has a different efficiency. This article describes the pharmacological treatment of hirsutism using, among others antiandrogenic drugs, corticosteroids and oral contraceptives. We performed an extensive literature looking for articles dealing with various forms of hirsutism treatment, most important items were selected and compiled in this work. Modem medicine distinguishes many forms of hirsutism treatment. A very important form of treatment for this condition is the use of pharmacological agents. Their diversity allows optimal adjustment of therapy to the requirements and needs of the patient. Drug therapy is effective, however, in most cases also requires a dermatological treatment.
