Abstract
Despite the large number of patients presenting with hirsutism and high prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome, for which hirsutism is an important sign, no national guidelines are currently available to Iranian primary-care and family physicians for its diagnosis and management. We have integrated highest levels of evidence and expert consensus to provide a national guideline to standardize and unify the Iranian primary-care and family physician’s approach to hirsutism.
