2. Ovarian cysts
About 10 percent of women of childbearing age have ovarian cysts. These cysts can affect hormone levels and lead to increased hair growth. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a specific condition associated with weight gain, acne and increased hair growth, particularly in the “androgen dependent” area like the chin.

3. Cushing-Syndrom
Cushing’s syndrome is caused by excessive production of the hormone cortisol. This can be caused by a benign tumor in the pituitary gland that causes overproduction of the hormone ACTH. Cushing’s syndrome can cause dark, tight hair on the chin, as well as acne, thin skin, and excessive weight gain.

4. Genetic predisposition
Hair growth is partly genetic and can be passed from generation to generation. If there are women with sporadic witch hair in your family, this can be genetic and is usually harmless. You can either remove the unwanted hair with tweezers or have it removed permanently with the help of laser treatment.
5. Ovarian or adrenal tumors
Tumors in the ovaries or adrenal glands can often cause increased production of androgens (male hormones) in the body. Watch out for accompanying symptoms like pelvic pain and extremely irregular periods.
6. Menopause
During menopause, which is characterized by hormonal changes, the production of female sex hormones decreases while the level of male hormones such as testosterone increases. This can lead to excess hair growth on the face, especially on the chin.
