Severe Hairfall during Covid and post covid and keloids on back - #24678

Ajay Rawat

I started losing hair during covid and later on my brother also started to shed hair and after some time we could see our scalp the hair fall did not stop so we took blood test and their were some nutritional deficiencies like vit d iron b12 so we corrected them but the hair fall did not stop so later we had prp andI started using minoxidil and my hair were back but after using minoxidil for more than 1 year suddenly 2 months back my hair started to fall again. But doctors told me it should not have happened if you are using minoxidil regularly.

Here’s a clear and explainable Ayurvedic approach in one paragraph: Hair fall after COVID and due to deficiencies like Vitamin D, B12, and iron is seen as a result of Pitta aggravation, dhatu kshaya (tissue depletion), and weakened agni (metabolism) in Ayurveda. To restore hair health, treatments should work from the root level. Internal medicines like Bhringrajasava, Narasimha Rasayana, Amalaki Rasayana, and Brahma Rasayana help strengthen the hair roots by nourishing rasa and rakta dhatus. Nasya therapy (putting medicated oil drops in the nose) using Anu Taila or Brahmi ghee is highly effective in stopping hair fall as it stimulates the brain and scalp nerves. Shiroabhyanga (head massage) with oils like Bhringraj Taila or Neelibhringadi Taila improves circulation, reduces stress, and promotes regrowth. In chronic cases, Shirodhara and Takradhara (therapeutic pouring on the forehead) help reduce stress-related hormonal hair loss. A Pitta-pacifying diet and avoiding hot, spicy foods, late nights, and mental strain are equally important for long-term hair stability.
