Hello mohan I can understand your concern regarding Androgenetic alopecia bur dont worry we are here to help you out!!

See i have seen significant changes in my patients having alopecia but it is really a long duration treatment you have to be consistent with treatment.

✅FIRST 3-4 MONTHS TO STOP THE PROGRESSION OF HAIR LOSS

✅ NEXT 1-2 MONTH OF STANGANT THAT IS NO PROGRESSION AND NO HAIR GROWTH

✅AFTER THIS SLOWELY HAIR GROWTH WILL START

✅ SO CONSIDER THIS AS A YEAR PROGRAM!!!

IN ALOPECIA MAIN TREATMENT WILL BE PANCHAKARMA ☑️you have to go to nearby center for this therapies ☑️You have to repeat this treatment every 3 months ☑️This treatment will be for 7 days

🔴PANCHKARMA🔴 1. Shiro abhynaga with Malatyadi taila 2. Hair loss patches is scrubed with incha ( natural scrub) - this scrubing will activate your hair follicles and improve your blood circulation 3. Thalapozichila - ( it is a renowned kerala ayurvedic therapy where in the medicated paste is applied on the head and covered it with bananana leaves)

🔴INTERNAL MEDICATION🔴 1. vidangaristham 30 ml-0-30ml after food 2. Groo 1-0-1 after food 3. Thickshoot A 1-0-1 after food 4. Jeevamrutham 1 tsp at bed time followed by warm water

🔴EXTERNAL TREATMENT🔴 1. Durdurpatradi taila + Durvadi thaila - mix and apply on the head half hour before bath 2. Indralupta mashi - this is black color powder mix it with water and apply on the hair loss patches daily 3. Use chemical free hair wash

🔴LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION🔴 1. Do pranayanam 2. Yoga, meditation 3. Journalling

I can understand that such condition takes troll on your mental health but dont stress as stress will again aggrevate the condition

This will definaetly work if you are consistent with the treatment I have seen changes in many patients i know it is very difficult to suffer with such condition, i wull be very greatful if i could bring change in your life!!

Hope you found this helpful!! Wish a good luck!!😊

Addressing hairfall and dandruff naturally through Ayurveda involves a comprehensive approach, focusing on balancing your doshas, improving your overall health, and using natural remedies. A receding hairline and grey hair at 21 suggests a Pitta imbalance, exacerbated by stress, lifestyle choices, or genetic predispositions.

Firstly, calming Pitta dosha is crucial. Avoid spicy and fried foods, as they can aggravate Pitta. Instead, consume cooling foods like coconut, cucumber, and fennel. Incorporate fresh, seasonal fruits and vegetables. Stay hydrated. Drink plenty of water and consider herbal teas like chamomile and hibiscus, which are soothing.

Oiling your hair regularly with cooling oils like Brahmi, Amla, or coconut oil can help nourish the scalp and hair. Warm the oil slightly before applying, massaging gently into the scalp. Leave it overnight if comfortable, and wash it off in the morning. Perform this twice a week consistently.

Use a natural, herbal shampoo once or twice a week. Avoid harsh chemicals that strip away natural oils. Look for shampoos with amla, hibiscus, or reetha, known for promoting hair health. To tackle dandruff, a paste of neem leaves can be applied to your scalp and washed off after 30 minutes. Neem is excellent for its antibacterial properties.

Stress reduction is also key. Practice yoga or meditation daily to calm the mind. Breathing exercises like Pranayama, especially Sheetali or Nadi Shodhana, can balance Pitta and reduce stress.

For grey hair, apply a mixture of Amla powder and henna mixed with water. Amla is potent in restoring natural hair color and preventing premature greying. Leave it on the hair for about an hour before washing off, doing this every fortnight.

Ensure your diet is rich in iron, zinc, and proteins to encourage healthy hair growth. Consider consuming soaked almonds, walnuts, and other nuts daily for vital nutrients.

If the hair fall continues to be severe or you notice bald spots, you may wish to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for an even more tailored guidance. Remember, changes can take time, patience and consistent effort with natural remedies will eventually pay off.

HELLO MOHAN,

You’re experiencing- -severe dandruff- itchy, flaky scalp- indicates scalp infection or dryness -hairfall for 3 years -receding hairline-early baldness, stage 2 of androgenetic alopecia -greying of hair at age 21 -you don’t want allopathy -no chronic illness

In Ayurveda, your problem is called KHALITYA-PALITYA caused by- Imbalance of Pitta and Vata Dosha -pitta causes early greying, weak hair roots -vata causes dry scalp, dandruff, brittle hair -weak digestion, this leads to miniaturisation of hair follicles, ,thinning, and baldness

What’s happening to your Hair? -your testosterone is converting into DHT(dihydrotestosterone) which attacks hair roots-this is common in men. -liver may not be detoxing well- a hidden cause of hair and skin issues -you may also have malabsorption- meaning your digestion isn’t providing nutrients to hair.

This condition is Khalitya+Palitya due to pitta-bata dushti with underlying Rasa-Rakta dhatu kshaya- weak blood and nutrient plasma.

AYURVEDIC TREATMENT MANAGEMENT DURATION- 3 to 6 months

1)BHRINGARAJASAVA- 20 ml+ 20 ml water after meals, twice daily =potent rasayana for hair follicle revival (Arya Vaidya sala/ baidyanth brand compulsory)

2)BRAHMI VATI- 1 tab morning and night =calms nervous system, reduces DHT via stress control (Patanjali / unjha brand )

3)CHITRAKADI VATI- 1 tab before lunch and dinner with warm water =enhances digestion, clears toxins (baidyanath brand)

4)PRAWAL PANCHAMRIT RAS- 125 mg with honey in morning =controls scalp heat, premature greying (baidyanath brand)

5)NARASIMHA RASAYANA(GHEE-BASED)- 1 tsp with warm milk on empty stomach =strengthens tissues, improves texture (kottakal brand)

6)KESHYA KALPA- 1 tsp twice a day with milk =specialised formula for hair regrowth (sandu/AVN)

EXTERNAL MANAGEMENT

1)MEDICATED OIL- ROTATE FOR BEST RESULTS -MAHABRINGARAJ TAILA- massage 3 times/week at night =regrows hair, cool scalp(baidyanth/AVS)

2)KAYYANYADI TAILA- alternate oil(esp if dandruff/ fungal) =reduces seborrheic itchy dandruff(kotakkal)

3)NEELIBRINGADI KERA TAILA- ideal for pitta-dominant scalp(heat) =very cooling, great for greying(AVP brand)

WARM OIL BEFORE APPLICATION. STEAM SCALP WITH HOT TOWEL AFTER MASSAGE.

2)MASHI APPLICATION- bhringaraj mashi+sesame oil -take bringaraj mashi-available in market -mix 2 tsp in cold-pressed sesame oil -apply gently on scalp 1-2 times/week -wash off after 1-2 hours with herbal shampoo

WHY? because Mashi is deeply penetrating, helps revitalise burnt-out follicles, and balances pitta

SHAMPOO AND CLEANSING -use these 2-3 times/week -DHURDHURAPATRADI KWATHA(liquid decoction for hair wash)- by Arya Vaidya Sala or mild shampoo with -shikakai -reetha -amla

or Kesh Kanti Anti-dandruff Shampoo-patanjai

Avoid chemical shampoos entirely.

HERBAL HAIR PACK-ONCE A WEEK -Make a paste with Amla powder- 2 tsp Bhringaraj powder- 1 tsp Aloe vera gel- 2 tsp Neem powder- 1 tsp(for dandruff) Mix with rose water or buttermilk. Apply on scalp, leave for 30-45 mins. Wash with lukewarm water.

NASYA KARMA- OIL NASAL THERAPY start after 7-10 days of internal detox use ANU TAILA- 2drops in each nostril every morning-on empty stomach -lie down with neck extended -put 2 drops in each nostril -inhale deeply and stay in that position for 5 mins

BENEFITS- improves scalp circulation, reduces hair fall, improves sleep, clears sinuses.

DIET :-

EAT MORE OF AMLA- raw or juice= hair rejuvination, natural vitamin C

CURRY LEAVES- boiled in ghee= stops greying

BLACK SESAME SEEDS-1 tsp daily= rich in calcium, hair tonic

COW GHEE-1 tsp with lunch and dinner= nourishes all 7 dhatus

WARM MILK WITH RASAYANA- restores strength to hair

AVOID STRICTLY -fermented foods- bread, idli, dosa, cheese -excess tea/coffee -cold water on head -stress, night work, irregular sleep -over washing or scrubbing scalp

LIFESTYLE AND YOGA SLEEP- by 10 pm. Hormonal balance depends on this. -Anulom-vilom= balances doshas -Sheetali/sheetkari- cools pitta -Bhramari- reduces mental tension, indirectly reduces hair fall -Balayam- nail rubbing- 10 mins/day

EXPECTED RESULTS

WEEK 1-2 = dandruff reduces, scalp cooling WEEK 3-4 = hair fat slows, itching gone MONTH 2= grey hair stabilises, new baby hair MONTH 3-6 = hair thickens, regrowth in bald areas begins

DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

I’m Dr. Hemanshu, a second-year MD scholar specializing in Shalya Tantra (Ayurvedic Surgery), with a focused interest in para-surgical interventions such as Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma. My academic and clinical journey is rooted in classical Ayurvedic surgical wisdom, complemented by a modern understanding of patient care and evidence-based approaches. With hands-on training and experience in managing chronic pain conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, hemorrhoids, fistula, and other ano-rectal conditions, I provide treatments that emphasize both relief and long-term wellness. I am deeply committed to offering individualized treatment plans that align with the patient’s prakriti (constitution), disease progression, and lifestyle factors. I believe healing is not limited to procedures alone; it also requires compassion, communication, and continuity of care. That’s why I ensure each patient receives personalized guidance—from diagnosis and therapy to post-treatment care and preventive strategies. I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.

NAMASTE MOHAN,

At 21 years old, with signs of androgenetic alopecia , severe dandruff, greying, and receding hairline, its important to act early to slow or control the condition

-Androgenetic alopecia- this is genetic and hormone driven(DHT sensitivity), typically causing hairline recession and crown thinning

-DANDRUFF could be seborrheic dermatitis or fungal - causes inflammation that worsens hairfall

-Premature greying= often linked to pitta imbalance, genetics or nutritional deficiencies

DIETARY CHANGES

EAT -amla daily- raw, juice, or as a churna -black sesame seeds- 1 tsp daily in morning -curry leaves-- raw or in cooking -cow ghee- nourishes scalps and nerves -pumpkun seeds- for zinc and DHT regulation -protein rich foods- moong dal, panner etc

AVOID -excess spicy, oily, salty and processed foods -caffeine, soft drinks, smoking -late night sleeping

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) TRIPHALA CHURNA- 1 tsp with warm water at night= for detox

2) BHRINGARAJ CHURNA- 1 tsp twice daily with honey and water

3) AMALAKI RASAYANA- 1 tsp daily in morning

4) ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA- 1 tsp at bedtime with warm milk reduces stress-related hairloss

5) YASHTIMADHU- 1/2 tsp in milk-supports scalp health

EXTERNAL HAIR OIL -brigaraj+brahmi+amla+neem+coconut oil massage scalp 3 times/week at night, leave overnight wash in morning

LIFESTYLE AND SCALP CARE -use mild herbal shampoo 3 times/week -use neem water rinse weekly for dandruff -avoid hot water for head bath don’t use chemical based gels/sprays

YOGA AND PRANAYAM to reduce stress -bhramari, anulom vilom, kapalbhati -sarvangasana, shirsshasana, balasana

REGULAR SLEEP -go to bed by 10-10:30 pm aim for 7-8 hours

NATURAL DANDRUFF CONTROL -NEEM LEAF PASTE - apply weekly to scalp -FENUGREEK SEED- soak overnight make paste apply30 mins before washing -Aloe vera gel- apply fresh to scalp to soothes inflammation

FOR PREMATURE GREYING -Amla juice + cure leaf powder daily -bhringaraj+black sesame paste applied weekly -avoid stress, fried foods and late nights

No treatment will give permenant results overnight- consistency for 6-12 months is needed

DO FOLLOW

THANK YOU

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

Dr. Ayush Varma
I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

Dr. Karthika
I am currently a PG 2nd yr student in the dept of Shalakya Tantra at Parul Institute of Ayurveda and Research, batch 2024. I joined right after UG—no break—straight into PG (regular batch). I did my undergrad from Rajiv Gandhi Ayurveda Medical College (2017 batch, CCRAS syllabus under Pondicherry Univ). Somehow managed to secure 2nd rank university-wide back then, which I didn’t totally expect. Right now, my core interest lies in the Ayurvedic and integrative management of eye disorders. I’ve got decent exposure to both classical texts and clinical practice. From anatomy to pathology, I try to stay grounded in both the traditional Ayurvedic view and also the modern opthalmic understanding, especially with conditions related to the cornea, retina, and anterior segment. During PG deputation in 2nd year, I handled like 200+ OPD patients daily within 1–2 hrs (felt crazy at first but got used to the pace). I’m also trained hands-on in cataract and cornea surgeries under supervision. Not calling myself a surgeon yet, but I did get a good amout of surgical exposure in the PG postings. In terms of academics, I got 82% in the first-year PG exams—distinction score—secured department 1st and university topper at Parul Institute. Sometimes I do wonder if all this speed actually lets me go deep into each case but I’m learning to balance efficiency with proper patient care. Honestly I think that’s the biggest challenge in clinical ayurveda today—staying rooted in shastra while also being practically useful in today's overloaded OPDs. Anyway, still got a lot to learn, but I try to show up with clarity, humility and the will to keep improving every day.

Dr. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

Dr. Sumi. S
I am an Ayurvedic doc trained mainly in Shalakya Tantra—basically, I work a lot with issues of the eyes, ears, nose, oral cavity, head... all that ENT zone. It’s a really specific branch of Ayurveda, and I’ve kind of grown to appreciate how much it covers. I deal with all kinds of conditions like Netra Abhishyanda (kinda like conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early or full-on cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma stuff), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Pratishyaya (chronic colds n sinus), Mukhapaka (mouth ulcers), and even dental stuff like Dantaharsha (teeth sensitivity) or Shirashool (headaches & migraines). I use a mix of classic therapies—Tarpana, Nasya, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, even Gandusha and Dhoomapana when it fits. Depends on prakriti, the season, and where the person’s really struggling. Rasayana therapy and internal meds are there too of course but I don’t just throw them in blindly... every plan’s got to make sense to that individual. It’s kind of like detective work half the time. But honestly, my clinical work hasn't been just about Shalakya. I’ve got around two yrs of broader OPD experience where I’ve also handled chronic stuff like diabetes, thyroid issues, arthritis flares, PCOS, IBS-type gut problems, and some hormonal imbalances in women too. I kind of like digging into the layers of a case where stress is playing a role. Or when modern bloodwork says one thing, but the symptoms are telling me something else entirely. I use pathology insights but don’t let reports override what the patient's body is clearly saying. That balance—between classical Ayurvedic drishtis and modern diagnostic tools—is what I’m always aiming for. I also try to explain things to patients in a way they’ll get it. Because unless they’re on board and actually involved, no healing really works long-term, right? It’s not all picture-perfect. Sometimes I still re-read my Samhitas when I'm stuck or double check new case patterns. And sometimes my notes are a mess :) But I do try to keep learning and adapting while still keeping the core of Ayurveda intact.
