HELLO LIZA, You're 23, experiencing severe hairfall, bad body odour, obesity, and have a history of liver infection- that's complex, interconnected situation. 1) HAIRFALL- KHALITYA/INDRALUPTA IN AYURVEDA -PRIMARY CAUSE= vitiation of pitta and vata doshas in the scalp region. Pitta burns the hair roots; vata dries and weakens them. -SECONDARY CAUSE= poor liver function, poor digestion (agni), and accumulation of Ama(toxins) -NUTRIENT TRANSPORT(rasa dhatu, Rakta Dhatu) is compromised- the hair is not getting nourished. 2) OBESITY (STHOULYA) -caused by kapha and medo dhatu vriddhi (increase in fat tissues ) -weak digestive fire (mandagni)-> leads to ama(toxins) , low metabolism, and fat deposition. -emotional or stress eating may aggravate kapha. 3) BODY ODOR (GANDHA, DURGANDHA) -indicates ama in sweat channels (sveda vaha Srotas) - pitta related toxins in the liver and blood may be coming out through sweat, producing a stinging odour -liver malfunction is key here.
