HELLO NIKIETA,
You are experiencing a combination of hormonal, metabolic, nervous system, and digestive disorders.
High prolactin= hormonal imbalance due to stress, impaired metabolism(kapha-vata aggravation)
Insomnia= Vata imbalance (racing thoughts, nervous system hyperactivity)
Alopecia(hair fall)= poor digestion(Agni) , excess vata and pitta in scalp, stress, low nutrition
Obesity, Insulin resistance= Kapha and Meda (fat tissue) accumulation, weak Agni(digestive fire)
Gut issues, bloating= weak digestive fire (Mandagni), vata imbalance in intestines
Mood swings, low energy= vata-pitta imbalance, chronic stress, poor nutrition, hormonal dysregulation
HOW THESE CONDITIONS CONNECT
-High prolactin may be due to stress or pituitary imbalance (linked with adrenal exhaustion)
-Insulin resistance and obesity further disturb hormones, worsen sleep, increase cravings
-Poor digestion leads to "Ama" (toxins), which further disturbs metabolism, energy, skin and hair
-Hair loss is a symptom of deeper nutritional, digestive and hormonal issues.
TREATMENT GOAL
-balance kapha, reduce ama(toxins)
-restore Agni(digestive and metabolic fire)
-calm Vata (especially for sleep, stress, digestion)
-support healthy hormones (especially prolactin, insulin)
-nourish hair tissues (Asthi and Majja dhatus)
-improve emotional and mental wellbeing
