N2 - Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), a chronic inflammatory disorder of the apocrine-bearing skin, presents with deep seated inflamed nodules, abscesses, draining sinus tracts, and scarring with a profound impact on quality of life. In this review of Pubmed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central databases, we focus on the role of hormonal therapies in the treatment of HS, including finasteride, cyproterone acetate, spironolactone, oral contraceptive pills, and metformin. A detailed search was conducted on these databases.
