    GlossaryHair Growth Mechanisms (hair growth processes)

    biological processes regulating hair follicle development and cycling

    Hair Growth Mechanisms refer to the biological processes and pathways that regulate the development, growth, and shedding of hair. These mechanisms involve a complex interplay of genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors that influence the hair follicle cycle, which includes the anagen (growth), catagen (regression), and telogen (resting) phases. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for developing treatments for hair loss conditions like alopecia.

      A 47-year-old male experienced significant hair loss after losing 37 kg in 6 months on a low-carb diet and started taking biotin, zinc, iron, selenium, and spectral dcn-n.
