    condition where hair growth is sparse or thin from birth

    Hypotrichosis is a medical condition characterized by the presence of less hair than normal. Unlike alopecia, which involves hair loss after normal hair growth, hypotrichosis is typically present from birth and involves sparse or thin hair growth due to genetic or developmental factors.
