hypertrichosis
This term is a clinical medical designation used to describe excessive hair growth that is not driven by hormonal imbalances. It is distinct from hirsutism, which specifically refers to androgen-dependent hair growth in women in a male-pattern distribution.
As a specialized medical condition, the word is used almost exclusively in dermatological and genetic contexts. It carries a neutral, descriptive tone in a clinical setting, though it describes a condition that often has significant psychosocial implications for the patient.
