Ingrown hairs and unwanted hair are common skin concerns that can cause discomfort and affect one's appearance and self-esteem. Ingrown hairs occur when hair curls back or grows sideways into the skin, leading to irritation, bumps, and sometimes infection. Unwanted hair, on the other hand, refers to hair growth in areas where it may be considered undesirable for cosmetic, cultural, or personal reasons. Ingrown hairs are most commonly associated with hair removal methods such as shaving, waxing, and tweezing.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal disorder that affects women of reproductive age. One of the more visible and sometimes distressing symptoms associated with PCOS is hirsutism, or the growth of excess hair on the face and body. This condition arises due to the hormonal imbalances associated with PCOS, particularly the increased levels of androgens, or male hormones, which can stimulate abnormal hair growth.
