Women get concerned if they have unwanted excessive dark or dense hair growth (known as hirsutism) on their face or any other part of the body. Both the men and women have the same number of hairs, but the men's hair are denser and darker due to the presense of male hormone testosterone in their body.
In women this may be caused by hormonal changes at puberty, pregnancy, irregular periods, menopause , stress, or it may be hereditary or a result of a drug. Sometimes it could be a side effect of a steroid cream or hormone pills taken to treat other conditions.
