Abstract
From her study of 11 normal elderly men Dr. Chieffi observed that the administration of testosterone produced a marked stimulus to beard growth. She discusses the literature on facial hypertrichosis in normal women undergoing hormonal treatment and those with pathologic glandular conditions as well as the results of androgen administration to hypogonadal males.Keywords
