Hypotrichosis is a rare genetic disorder resulting in minimal to no hair growth on the scalp and body from birth. Caused by gene mutations that disrupt normal hair follicle development, symptoms range from mild hair thinning to complete hair loss. Some individuals may experience additional health concerns, including skin issues, nail abnormalities, or dental problems.
Diagnosing hypotrichosis often involves genetic testing, scalp biopsy, or microscopic hair examination. Treatment options focus on managing symptoms and improving hair appearance through topical medications, hair transplants, or the use of wigs.
Living with hypotrichosis can impact self-esteem and emotional well-being. Seeking support from healthcare professionals and connecting with others experiencing similar challenges can be beneficial.
