Ditto on what Corky said. It's called PCOS and involves the overproduction of hormones which are converted to androgens by an enzyme in your body. Go see your doctor.

for women to get facial hair it normally means they have an hormone in balance so if i was you i would go and see your doctor and ask for some tests to be done

my sister had the exact same symptoms and has polysitic ovaries her body was producing to much male hormone which caused her facial hair and her periods where irregular

It sounds and you body is producing a lot of testosterone...

What I think it is, is a imbalance...

You might need to go to you physician and get checked...they may prescribe medication to give you extra estrogen...

PCOS...In each menstrual cycle, follicles grow on the ovaries. Eggs develop within those follicles, one of which will reach maturity faster than the others and be released into the fallopian tubes. This is "ovulation". The remaining follicles will degenerate.

In the case of polycystic ovaries, however, the ovaries are larger than normal, and there are a series of undeveloped follicles that appear in clumps, somewhat like a bunch of grapes. Polycystic ovaries are not especially troublesome and may not even affect your fertility.

However, when the cysts cause a hormonal imbalance, a pattern of symptoms may develop. This pattern of symptoms is called a syndrome. These symptoms are the difference between suffering from polycystic ovary syndrome and from polycystic ovaries.

Hope this helps Birth control pills can regulate this period mishalf...And your increase in male hormones is due to Pcos..

Testosterone is responsible for for facial hair growth. Women normally produce small amounts of testosterone in their ovaries. Two things are certain: you have a hormonal imbalance and you need to see a doctor. PCOS may be causing your problems, but there are a number of conditions that cause increased testosterone including certain drugs, illicit or otherwise, or adrenal problems. I am not a doctor and do not represent myself as one. Bottom line, go see one ASAP. Evidently excess testosterone can result in increased risk of cancer and non-viable eggs.

It probably means that your body produces a lot of testosterone. Which means that your hormones a little off. You should go to your dr. She/he can help get those hormones regulated, usually it's done with birth control but not necessarily. Good Luck

ITS YOUR HORMONES AND TESTRONES.THERE ARE PILLS THAT YOU CAN TAKE TO HELP THAT PROBLEM. TALK WITH YOUR DR.

It could be Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome. That means you produce too much androgen and the outer covering of your ovaries is tough which causes eggs to have a hard time breaking through at time of ovulation. Usually the egg forms a cyst but never actually makes it out and then gets reabsorbed into the ovary.

There are many tests, blood, 24 hour urine, radiology and maybe even a laproscope. You need to see a qualified GYN and be evaluated. PCOS later in life may cause diabetes and heart disease. Also, weight gain.

It is possible to have children but you need to find a GYN that is willing to help you. Be careful if they want to start you on steroids. They can cause more problems than you already have. The side effects can be brutal.

As for the facial hair, once you start treatment to decrease the excess hormones you don't want or need then you can get laser treatments. Faster results than other treatments and far less painful. Laser treatments do not help blondes or red heads.

A side note: women do NOT need a menstrual cycle every month. Unless there is a medical problem. Fertility specialists tell me they are happy if women have 4-6 a year.

It can mean a hormone imbalance such as with the thyroid but the only way to know for sure is to see your doctor for further evaluation of the situation to see what they think could be going on.
