Good evening, Prasad. Since your blood sugar and thyroid profile are normal, we need to look at other possible causes of your hair fall from all over the body. Some common reasons include: Low levels of iron, vitamin D, zinc, and B12 can lead to hair loss. High stress levels can cause telogen effluvium, a temporary hair shedding condition. Autoimmune Disorders – Conditions like alopecia universalis or lupus can cause widespread hair loss. Hormonal Imbalances – Even if thyroid levels are normal, other hormonal issues (like low testosterone or high cortisol) could contribute. Certain medications, infections, or even excessive use of antibiotics can lead to hair fall. Check ferritin, vitamin D, B12, zinc, and testosterone levels. Include protein-rich foods, leafy greens, nuts, and seeds. Bhringraj, Amla, and Brahmi oil can help strengthen hair. Yoga, meditation, and good sleep are essential. Do you have any other symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, or skin dryness?

Getting hair fall consistently can be concerning, especially when it seems to come from all over body. Since your blood sugar and thyroid tests are normal, the issue might be connected to other factors, which is good to know, because these are common culprits. Ayurveda considers hair fall as often related to imbalances in the doshas, and predominantly, the pitta dosha. However, it’s important to understand your specific prakriti, or bodily constitution, which can give us more insight into the exact root cause. Stress levels, your diet, digestion (agni), and sleep are also crucial parts of this puzzle. 1. **Diet and Digestion:** You might want to start by focusing on maintaining a balanced diet that pacifies pitta. This means avoiding excessively oily, spicy, or hot foods. Include cooling foods like cucumbers, melons, fresh coconut, and vegetables like leafy greens. Make sure your digestion is strong; consider using a decoction of cumin and coriander seeds in warm water to aid this. 2. **Herbs for Hair Health:** Bhringraj and Amla are wonderful for supporting hair health. You can take them in forms of powder, oil, or capsule available at most health stores. Incorporating one teaspoon of raw Amla juice with honey can be especially nourishing for hair. 3. **Scalp and Body Care:** Massaging your scalp and body gently with coconut or bhringraj oil 2-3 times a week can also help. Massaging increases blood circulation which nourishes hair follicles. 4. **Lifestyle and Stress:** Try to manage stress with practices like yoga, breathing exercises, or meditation. Such activities not only balance your mind but can also positively affect your physical health. If you find no improvement, or symptoms worsen, it may be wise to speak with a healthcare professional or an Ayurvedic practitioner who can offer more personalized guidance. Hair fall often requires a holistic look at diet, lifestyle, and sometimes, an expert evaluation to address properly.
