In Ayurveda, hair loss can often be linked to an imbalance in Pitta dosha, which governs metabolism and transformation in the body. Given your situation, where there is no strong family history of hair loss, this imbalance may be aggravated by stress, improper diet, or lifestyle factors. To support your treatment, I recommend incorporating Ayurvedic herbs like Bhringraj, Amla, and Brahmi, known for their ability to nourish hair follicles and balance Pitta. Additionally, ashwagandha can help manage stress, and a diet rich in warm, grounding foods and healthy fats like ghee can promote hair health. A gentle scalp massage with warm coconut oil infused with Bhringraj and Amla could also improve circulation to the scalp. Stay consistent with your treatment, and if possible, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized plan.

Androgenetic alopecia can be annoying and really stressful, especially when it seems to pop out of nowhere, like it sounds in your case. You're already using minoxidil and finasteride, which are common treatments, but Ayurveda offers some natural ways to support hair growth and health, too. First, consider your diet. In Ayurveda, hair health is connected to your digestive fire, or agni. Eating fresh, warm food that's easy to digest helps strengthen agni. Include foods rich in iron and calcium like green leafy vegetables, sesame seeds and whole grains. Protein is key too, so things like, lentils, chickpeas, and milk should be regular parts of your diet. Spices like turmeric, cumin, and coriander can help to balance Pitta, generally considered responsible for hair issues. For topical care, you might want to try massaging your scalp with oils like bhringraj or amla oil, which are known in Ayurveda for nurturing and revitalizing hair follicles. Try doing this 2-3 times a week, leave it on overnight if you can. It not only promotes hair growth but it's also really relaxing. Lifestyle factors matter a bunch too. Stress can increase hair loss, so incorporating things like yoga, meditation, or regular exercise is huge. Also, make sure you're getting enough sleep - it's like the body's natural reset button. Remember, in Ayurveda, hair reflects your inner health. So consider any imbalances in your doshas, particularly Pitta which could be the snag here since it's typically linked to hair health. Consulting an Ayurvedic doctor for a personalized regimen that suits your Prakriti would be ideal. It’s not a quick fix but addresses the roots (pun intended) of the problem persistently. I hope these tips help you see some progress. Be patient – it's a journey, not a sprint.
