Sexual hair is best defined as hair patterns that follow which areas?

• A. Hair following male body and face patterns
• B. Hair on the scalp only
• C. Hair on the legs only
• D. Pubic hair patterns only

Answer: (A)

Sexual hair refers to terminal hair growth that follows patterns shaped by androgens, showing the typical male distribution on the body and face. This includes areas such as facial hair, chest and abdomen hair, underarms, and the pubic region in patterns that resemble male patterning. It’s not limited to the scalp, legs, or pubic hair alone, which is why the best description is hair patterns that mirror male body and face distribution.
