Three hundred and sixty-nine volunteer women and 308 outpatients were studied to clarify the criteria of hirsutism and the relationship between a grade of hirsutism and menstrual status in Japanese women. The body hair growth was assessed according to the modified score system described by Ferriman and Gallway. The menstrual status was classified into six groups based on basal body temperature. The hair growth score calculated in volunteers tended to be lower than that of western women in most sites. Therefore one criterion of hirsutism in Japanese women should be a score of more than 6 points in our system. There was a close correlation between body hair growth and menstrual status. As a result, it can be considered that the systematic assessment of body hair growth is useful in diagnosing and treating some irregular menstrual patients.
对369名志愿者女性和308名门诊患者进行了研究，以明确日本女性多毛症的诊断标准以及多毛症程度与月经状态之间的关系。根据Ferriman和Gallway描述的改良评分系统评估体毛生长情况。根据基础体温将月经状态分为六组。在大多数部位，志愿者计算出的毛发增长评分往往低于西方女性。因此，在我们的系统中，日本女性多毛症的一个诊断标准应为评分超过6分。体毛生长与月经状态密切相关。因此，可以认为对体毛生长进行系统评估有助于诊断和治疗一些月经不调的患者。
