Seasonal Hair Loss - #126

Shyam

I have big problem with my hair. Every season, especially in autumn, my hair start to fall out a lot. I try many things like special shampoo and oils, but nothing help. Last year, I even try to eat more healthy food and drink lots of water, but still my hair fall like leaves from tree. I feel very sad and worried. Can you please tell me what can I do in Ayurveda for this? Maybe some herbs or treatments? I really want my hair to be strong and healthy again. Thank you very much for your time!

Dear Shyam, Do you have dry scalp or dandruff too? Also have you done your basic blood investigations like Hemoglobin, Thyroid profile etc? Hair fall can have many reasons. It is important to treat the root cause first.

I'm sorry to hear about your struggles with hair loss, especially during autumn. It’s understandable that this would cause worry, especially when you've tried various treatments without success. In Ayurveda, seasonal hair loss can be linked to an imbalance in the doshas, particularly vata and pitta dosha. Stress, dietary imbalances, and changes in the environment can aggravate these doshas, leading to hair loss. To support hair health, Ayurveda recommends a holistic approach that includes both internal and external treatments. Internally, herbs like bhringraj, amla (Indian gooseberry), and ashwagandha are known for their ability to nourish hair from the inside out. Bhringraj is especially beneficial for promoting hair growth, while amla is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants that strengthen hair and improve its texture. Externally, regular oiling of the scalp with warm sesame or coconut oil infused with herbs like bhringraj or brahmi can nourish the hair follicles and reduce dryness, which often leads to hair fall. Gently massaging the scalp increases circulation, helping to support hair growth. It’s also important to maintain a balanced diet rich in nutrients like iron, zinc, and protein to support overall hair health. Eating fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while avoiding excessive spicy, oily, or processed foods can help maintain a healthy balance in the body. Stress management techniques, such as yoga and meditation, can further help by balancing the doshas and reducing the impact of seasonal changes on your hair.
