what is the cause of hair fall - #37522
I am really starting to freak out about my hair fall lately. Like, I don't know if it’s stress or something else? I've always had pretty thick hair, but now it feels like I’m shedding strands all the time, especially when I shampoo or even just run my fingers through it. It's kinda scary actually! I turned 30 recently and thought maybe it would be a phase, but it's been like this for a few months now. I tried some over-the-counter oils and they just seem to make my scalp oily without doing much for the hair fall. I read that could be related to nutrition too, but I eat pretty healthy. My friend suggested I check in with an Ayurvedic doc because they might have some natural remedies or something more holistic. Honestly, what is the cause of hair fall? I’m worried it's something serious like a thyroid problem or just hormonal changes from flipping into my 30s. Has anyone else experienced this? I feel like I’m losing my mind a little, wondering if I should see someone or just ride it out. Any tips on what is the cause of hair fall from an Ayurvedic perspective? Should I change my diet or is there herbs I can try? 🤔 Would love to hear your thoughts!

Hair fall can indeed be an unsettling experience, and it’s understandable to want to get to the bottom of it. From an Ayurvedic perspective, hair fall is often linked to a disturbance in the doshas—specifically, an excess of Pitta dosha is typically associated with this issue. Increased Pitta can be due to several factors, including stress, dietary habits, lifestyle choices, and environmental influences.
To address hair fall comprehensively, you may want to look at a few things:
Dietary Adjustments: Even if you’re eating healthy, it’s crucial to focus on foods that pacify Pitta. Incorporate cooling foods such as cucumbers, melons, coriander, and sweet fruits into your diet. Avoid spicy, fermented, and fried foods that can exacerbate Pitta. More intake of whole grains and cooked vegetables can be beneficial.
Herbs and Supplements: Consider using Ayurvedic herbs known to support hair health. Amla (Indian Gooseberry) is particularly effective, as it’s rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants. You might also explore Brahmi and Bhringraj as they are traditionally used to enhance hair vitality.
Lifestyle Practices: Stress can increase Pitta, so engaging in stress-reduction techniques like meditation, yoga, and deep-breathing exercises can significantly help. Adequate sleep is also essential, as it’s during rest the body repairs and rejuvenates.
Scalp and Hair Care: Applying herbal oils is a foundation of Ayurvedic hair care. Brahmi and coconut oil can help calm Pitta on the scalp. But don’t overdo oil application. Consider occasional gentle scalp massages instead, promoting circulation without clogging pores.
Monitor for other symptoms that might indicate thyroid issues or hormonal imbalances, as these can contribute significantly to hair fall. It’s wise to see a healthcare provider who can assess for underlying conditions. If your hair loss continues or worsens, consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner can offer a personalized approach tailored to your body’s constitution, ensuring your efforts effectively dovetail.
