Glossary Pubic Hair Growth

development of hair in the genital region during puberty

Pubic hair growth refers to the development of hair in the genital region, typically occurring during puberty due to hormonal changes, particularly the increase in androgens like testosterone. This process is a secondary sexual characteristic and serves various functions, including reducing friction during physical activities and providing a barrier to pathogens.
