She is different from a number of other women, as she has been growing facial hair to take part in Movember. Siobhain Fletcher, a British housewife, has been battling hirsutism. She is now using her problem for a great social cause.
She has been suffering from hirsutism from the time when she was 17 years old. Fletcher, who is now 36, is enjoying popularity, which she has received by taking this decision. She shared her story that it was not an easy thing to come in front of the world this way.
She made efforts each and every day to remove her facial hair, so she can conceal her problem from the world. It was her friend, who encouraged coming up and showing sporting spirit, but she said that it took a lot of courage to take this step.
Once she was fully convinced, she decided to take part in the activity by raising funds. She has been doing well in the activity and has raised as much as £700.
"And now it's actually saying to the world, look, this isn't a sideshow, I'm doing this to raise awareness for men's cancer to stop families possibly losing a family member", said she.
