    Glossary Endocrine Factors

    hormones regulating bodily functions, including hair growth and loss

    Endocrine factors refer to hormones and other substances produced by the endocrine glands, such as the thyroid, adrenal glands, and pituitary gland, that regulate various bodily functions. These factors can influence hair growth and loss, as hormonal imbalances or changes can lead to conditions like alopecia. For example, an excess of androgens (male hormones) can cause hair thinning and baldness.
