    hair loss caused by psychological stress or emotional disturbances

    Psychogenic Alopecia, also known as Stress-Induced Alopecia, is a condition where hair loss occurs due to psychological stress or emotional disturbances. This type of alopecia is often seen in both humans and animals, and it manifests when stress triggers a disruption in the normal hair growth cycle, leading to excessive shedding or hair thinning.
