Skin Sciences第 50 / 100 题
A client reports coarse dark hair growth on the chin and upper lip that began after a hormonal change. Which term describes this pattern in a female client?
a.Hypertrichosis, meaning hair on the palms and soles
b.Hirsutism, an excessive growth of terminal hair in a male pattern
c.Alopecia, a loss of hair
d.Trichoptilosis, a splitting of hair ends
解析
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.
