A common cause: Of hirsutism is family history or ethnicity. Some hormonal manipulation can be helpful for many women with things like spironolactone and ocp with low androgen progesterone. If there isn't anything adrenal or otherwise hormonal, i'd talk with my doctor about spironolactone. It doesn't get rid of hair, but really slows down growth. Good luck.
