Any conditions that lead to excessive hair growth in men?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very rare: Only hormone producing tumors would cause this effect. These tumors are exceedingly rare. In men, hair growth is genetic and can be progressive over time due to male hormone exposure. So hair may continue to grow and thicken over one's life.
