During which phase is hair actively growing?

  1. Catagen

  2. Telogen

  3. Anagen

  4. Metagen

The correct answer is: Anagen

The other options, A, B, and D, are incorrect because they are not phases of hair growth. Catagen is known as the transitional phase, where hair growth stops and the hair follicle prepares for the telogen, or resting phase. Telogen is known as the resting phase, where hair remains in the follicle but does not grow further. Metagen is a non-existent term and may have been meant as an alternative to the correct answer, anagen. Anagen is the active growth phase, where the hair bulb is rapidly dividing and pushing the hair shaft upward. This is the phase where hair growth occurs at its maximum rate.
