Glossary Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis

rare genetic disorder causing sparse or absent hair growth

Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis (MUHH) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal hair growth, leading to sparse or absent hair on the scalp and other parts of the body. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, meaning only one copy of the altered gene is necessary for the condition to manifest.
