Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the prevalence of hirsutism among South-Indian women and establishes modified cut-offs for the modified Ferriman-Gallwey score (mFGS), recognizing the lack of population-specific data for Indian women.
- Conducted with 453 women aged 18-40, the research showed a low prevalence of hirsutism at 1.8% using an mFGS of ≥8, and 9.9% using a cut-off of ≥5.
- The findings suggest a new mFGS cut-off of 5 for South-Indian women to better assess hirsutism prevalence in this population.
