Lose the Weight

• Doctors often see excessive hair growth in women who are overweight. According to FamilyDoctor.org, losing weight reduces the amount of hormones in the body that trigger hair growth. Tied in to weight loss is proper nutrition. Insulin resistance is the result of years of poor nutrition and also causes unwanted growth due to hormone imbalances. It may be possible to alleviate that with an improved, healthy diet.
