    GlossaryBody Hair Growth

    process where hair develops on various body parts

    Body Hair Growth refers to the process by which hair develops on various parts of the human body, including the arms, legs, chest, and back. This growth is regulated by hormones, particularly androgens, and typically begins during puberty. The hair follicles go through cycles of growth (anagen), rest (telogen), and shedding (catagen), which determine the length and density of the hair.
