    Glossary Abnormal Hair Follicles

    hair follicles deviating from normal structure or function

    Abnormal hair follicles refer to hair follicles that deviate from their typical structure or function, often leading to issues like hair thinning, hair loss, or unusual hair growth patterns. These abnormalities can be caused by genetic factors, hormonal imbalances, autoimmune conditions, or external factors such as trauma or certain medications. For professionals, understanding the underlying cause of these abnormalities is crucial for diagnosing and treating hair-related disorders effectively.
