Hirsutism has a negative impact on women's quality of life. The relation between quality of life, anxiety, depression and the level of hairiness has not been described.
To investigate the correlations between the levels of hairiness, quality of life, anxiety and depression.
200 patients from Malmö, Örebro and Uppsala, who had been in contact with the clinics for problems with excessive hair growth, were invited to answer a self-administered questionnaire including sociodemographic questions, EQ-5D index score, Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and Ferriman-Gallwey scale (F-G); of these, 127 women participated in the study.
The mean values were: EQ-5D index 0.73 (SD = 0.27), EQ visual analogue scale 61.0 (SD = 22.6), HADS-anxiety 9.5 ± 5.3 and HADS-depression 6.5 ± 4.6. The mean DLQI was 11.8 ± 8.4, indicating a very large effect on patients' lives. All were significantly correlated with the amount of hairiness.
Higher levels of hair growth were significantly correlated with a lower level of quality of life and symptoms of both anxiety and depression.
多毛症对女性的生活质量有负面影响。生活质量、焦虑、抑郁与多毛程度之间的关系尚未得到描述。
研究多毛程度、生活质量、焦虑和抑郁之间的相关性。
邀请来自马尔默、厄勒布鲁和乌普萨拉的200名曾因毛发过度生长问题前往诊所就诊的患者，让他们回答一份自填式问卷，问卷包括社会人口学问题、EQ-5D指数评分、皮肤病生活质量指数（DLQI）、医院焦虑抑郁量表（HADS）和费里曼-盖尔维毛发评分量表（F-G）；其中127名女性参与了研究。
平均值分别为：EQ-5D指数0.73（标准差=0.27），EQ视觉模拟量表61.0（标准差=22.6），HADS焦虑量表9.5±5.3，HADS抑郁量表6.5±4.6。平均DLQI为11.8±8.4，表明对患者生活有非常大的影响。所有这些均与多毛量显著相关。
更高的毛发生长水平与更低的生活质量以及焦虑和抑郁症状显著相关。
