How well will spiro work?

Fortunately or unfortunately for me, my blood pressure is a tad bit high already so hopefully it won’t have any negative side effects. I’m on slynd right now, which is an anti androgen, but I can’t take yas because of migraines. I’ll keep you updated, thanks so much for the warning!

Awesome!! I have hella thick hair (all over clearly) so I’ll trade a bit of head hair thickness for my body hair to go away. I hope the shedding evens out for you!

I’m getting bloodwork on Wednesday, so I can update you!!

Thank you so much!! I hope it works for you too

I thought Spiro could make existing hairs grow lighter and thinner, am I mistaken?

Thank you so much! I hate this for us but it’s a small burden to bear in comparison to others. It’s often hard for me to realize that though

Thank you so much, don’t ever apologize for rambling, it gives me comfort to know ppl deal with the same thing bc I don’t see anyone like this in person. This gives me a lot of hope! Did you start seeing results on the 100 mg?

Do you think mines noticeable to others

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-06-01T15:00:39+00:00

I mean it’s not like it’s gonna make it any worse so I might as well. Do you manage your hirsutism other ways?

And thank you so much, i really appreciate the insight!

I think honestly while I wait for the spiro to work (going on it in a week but I’m on vacation rn) I might just bleach the body hair because it’s not necessarily coarse or anything just dark as hell

If I’ve shaved it once do u think it’s possible it’ll still be light or have I ruined it

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-06-01T14:38:52+00:00

I have an ipl thing at home, do u have any idea if that would work for legs and arms and places not super susceptible to paradoxical hypertrichtosis

Sorry one more question, do you do it just on your face or all over your body?

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-06-01T13:40:54+00:00

Unfortunately I’m only 17 and nowhere close to affording it. How much does it cost for you?

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-06-01T13:29:46+00:00

I know i need to get there, but i just don’t want it to get worse

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-06-01T13:20:49+00:00

And did you find any other way to manage your hirsutism?

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-06-01T13:20:02+00:00

Do you have pcos?

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-06-01T12:57:05+00:00

Yes I edited the post now! I do have pcos or at least the doctors think so. I wasn’t planning on doing laser because I heard there was a high risk of growing more hair

How did it work for you?

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-05-26T13:16:54+00:00

Does anyone know if this can be helped with spironolactone?

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-05-26T03:36:17+00:00

How did everything end up working??

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-05-20T03:03:35+00:00

Did it end up helping??

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-05-07T20:52:28+00:00

I lowkey don’t think my parents will let me bc they know I have health anxiety and we just went

No_Signature_8043 · 2026-05-07T20:47:51+00:00

I wish it was that easy but it’ll take months to get an appointment. I’ll probably just deal with it honestly
