Hirsutism
"Been on Spironolactone for a month 50 mg x 2 daily, for excess facial (chin) hair, with bonus acne clearing up I&#039;m told. My results so far no improvement on hair. I&#039;m trying not to give up but I have gained weight. My legs, mostly upper thighs, are getting bigger too quickly to be me just gaining a few pounds. I can deal with fuller breasts just not the rest of me. My dermatologist said she never heard of this and try and stick it out 3 months at least, but I see online others experienced weight gain too, shocked she dismissed so quickly.  I&#039;ll do a couple more months to see if hair improvement. Plucking and shaving everyday gets old, just don&#039;t want to get any bigger in the meantime. So far, peeing yes, fuller yes, heartburn yes, hair yes."
