"We feel rejected": experiences of women with hirsutism consulting physicians.

Maria Ekbäck1, Peter Engfeldt, Eva Benzein.   

Abstract

The aim of the study was to describe how women with hirsutism experience their relationship with health care. Data were collected by tape-recorded individual interviews, which were analyzed by means of qualitative content analysis. The results showed that the relationship with health care, from the perspective of patients with hirsutism, is suboptimal.
