Giải thích
Hirsutism describes excessive terminal hair growth in a male distribution pattern in women and is often hormonally driven. Hypertrichosis is excessive hair growth in areas that are not normally hair-bearing and is not pattern-specific. Alopecia is hair loss and trichoptilosis is split ends, neither of which fits the description.
