Is congenital generalized Hypertrichosis a disability or an illness?

---

It is excessive bodily hair.
Well, your question really revolves around definitions, so lets check the dictionary first:

disability - a physical or mental condition that limits an individual's movements senses or activities

illness - a disease or period of sickness affecting the body or mind

Since it is congenital, it would not be an illness, as it is not a disease that is caught from anything, and it is not a "period" but a lifetime. It also doesn't limit an individual's movements, senses, or activities (at least in any serious way apart from society's expectations on he or she).

Thus I would say that it is neither. It is best described as a "trait" which acknowledges that it is harmless, more like dimples than down syndrome.  (+ info)

How much does going on the pill help Hirsutism or Hypertrichosis?

---

does it help loads or hardly not a lot
Slows it down how much?
My Obgyn put me onto Diane 35ED for this particular reason. It does not get rid of it, waxing, electrolysis and laser work best for that, but it will slow it down and you will need to be on it for quite a while before you begin to notice any changes. Speak to an Obgyn for more info. I have had PCOS for 25½yrs  (+ info)

Exactly what is Hypertrichosis?

---

me friend has this thing he needs to know more about it, he wants to know if there a known cure for it or not?
Hypertrichosis is a medical term, also known as "Werewolf syndrome", referring to a condition of excessive body hair. It can be generalized, symmetrically affecting most of the torso and limbs, or localized, affecting an area of skin. It may be mild or severe. In most cases, the term is used to refer to an above-average amount of normal body hair that is unwanted and is an aspect of human variability.

In medical practice, once generalized hypertrichosis has been distinguished from hirsutism, it is most often considered a variation of normal, primarily resulting from genetic factors.

Most of the people recently featured in the media with hypertrichosis are from the Aceves clan of Loreto, Zacatecas, Mexico, some of whom have emigrated to the United States. Many of them have worked for circuses. The brothers Victor Ramon "Danny" Ramos and Gabriel "Larry" Ramos have worked as acrobats. Their cousins, Jesus "Chuy" Aceves and his sister, Lili, have worked in sideshows.

Although the statistic has been cited that this only occurs for 1 out of 10 billion people[1], 19 people alive today have hypertrichosis, out of ~6.5 billion people in the world, makes for an average of 1 in 340 million.
When the unwanted or excessive hair occurs in other places, and especially in other sequences of appearance, it is rarely due to a disorder of androgen excess. For example, it is not unusual for a young girl to be taken to a pediatric endocrinologist because her mother is distressed by the heaviness of the girl's arm and leg hair, but this condition is never due to a disorder of androgen excess if pubic hair has not appeared.

Most hypertrichosis is genetic, but a small number of unusual systemic disorders can sometimes increase vellus hair. Some drugs (e.g., diazoxide, diphenylhydantoin, and minoxidil) and toxins (e.g., mercury) can induce generalized hair growth as well. Unusual hypertrichosis can also be caused by untreated infection, or by malnutrition. For this reason, it is an occasional sign of anorexia nervosa
Severe hypertrichosis is quite rare, almost certainly due to unknown genetic defects, and can result in excessive or animal-like hair on both face and body. Some of these people have been displayed in carnival sideshows with names such as "dog-boy" or the "bearded lady." Fedor Jeftichew and Annie Jones are well known examples.
In some cases an area of skin can react to repeated trauma or to some other asymmetric stimulus (such as wearing of a cast) with increased hair growth.
In the vast majority of cases, hypertrichosis is a cosmetic problem. The treatments range from camouflage (e.g., bleaching with hydrogen peroxide), to temporary removal by waxing, or permanent removal by electrolysis or laser destruction of hair follicles.  (+ info)
