Increasing problem of facial hair

Nowadays, skin problems are becoming more common, but one particular problem is on the rise: the growth of a slight beard or mustache on girls’ faces, called facial hair. Many women are turning to physicians for solutions to this problem, as it is generally believed to be caused by hormonal imbalance. However, apart from hormonal changes, lifestyle changes and excessive consumption of fast food can also increase this problem.


Relation of fast food and hormonal imbalance

According to Russian website Izvestia, fast foods like burgers, French fries and sweets contain high amounts of sugar, salt and trans fats, which increase insulin resistance. It affects the hormonal balance of the body and increases the levels of male hormones in women. For this reason, hair starts growing on the face of girls. Although fast food does not directly cause hair growth, it promotes weight gain and hormonal imbalance, which leads to unwanted hair growth. These hairs appear around the face, chin or eyebrows, which is called hirsutism in medical language.

According to the report, when girls start their periods, hormonal changes occur in their body. If during this time they consume fast food, junk food and fried foods, then the risk of facial hair increases. Obesity, insulin resistance and irregular eating habits also contribute to hirsutism. When girls are troubled by these unwanted hair, sometimes they shave them, which can worsen the problem. Doctors do not recommend adopting home remedies without expert advice.


Treatment and Management

This problem can be solved by checking hormonal imbalance and proper treatment. Diet and lifestyle changes are also an important part of treatment. Medicines recommended by doctors, weight control and a healthy lifestyle can improve the condition. Laser treatment can also be an option, but it is extremely important to avoid home remedies and consult a doctor.
