摘要

This piece reflects on Frida Kahlo—the iconic Mexican painter whose art and life remain profoundly intertwined—through the lens of endocrinology. In works such as Self-Portrait with Monkey and Parrot, Kahlo presents herself with features suggestive of mild hirsutism, including her distinctive monobrow and faint upper-lip hair. The essay explores how her distinctive features, often interpreted as signs of androgen excess, may instead represent an assertion of cultural identity and aesthetic autonomy.
