A woman in England is using a medical condition to help bring awareness to prostate cancer, according to a Wednesday report.
ABCNews said Siobhain Fletcher has polycystic ovary syndrome, which causes her to grow excessive facial hair.
She is reportedly turning the condition into something positive by participating in “Movember,” which is when many men grow facial hair during November to raise awareness for cancer.
