hello priyanka pandey ,

I understand how worrying and frustrating it must be to experience hair loss at your age, especially when it’s not genetic. Hair fall and dental issues together often point toward nutritional deficiencies, stress, or imbalance in your body tissues (Rasadhatu and Majjadhatu) from an Ayurvedic perspective. Essentially, your body is lacking the nutrients and energy needed to maintain healthy hair, nails, teeth, and overall tissue strength. The goal of treatment is to strengthen the roots, improve scalp circulation, nourish tissues, and correct deficiencies.

Internal Medicines:

Bhringaraja Churna / Tablet – 500 mg, twice daily with warm milk or warm water. Supports hair regeneration and strengthens roots. Amalaki Churna / Tablet – 500 mg, once daily with warm water. Rich in Vitamin C, boosts immunity, and improves tissue health. Ashwagandha Churna / Tablet – 500 mg at night with warm milk. Helps reduce stress, strengthens hair follicles, and enhances vitality.

External Therapy:

Bhringaraja Oil / Coconut Oil Massage – Massage scalp 3–4 times a week for 5–10 minutes. Improves blood flow and nourishes hair roots. Optional Nasya with Anu Taila – 1–2 drops per nostril daily can support overall head and hair health.

Dietary Suggestions

Include protein-rich foods: lentils, paneer, eggs (if non-vegetarian), nuts, and seeds. Add leafy greens and fruits rich in vitamins and antioxidants. Avoid excess fried, processed, and spicy foods. Drink enough water throughout the day to stay hydrated.

Investigations (Recommended)

CBC (Complete Blood Count) Serum Ferritin & Iron Vitamin B12 & Vitamin D Thyroid profile (TSH, T3, T4) Scalp dermoscopy (if localized patches are present)

Lifestyle & Supportive Measures

Sleep 7–8 hours per night; manage stress with meditation, yoga, or breathing exercises. Avoid harsh shampoos, chemical treatments, or tight hairstyles. Gentle daily scalp massage improves circulation and strengthens hair roots.

If this regimen is followed consistently for 3–6 months, you should see reduction in hair fall and improvement in hair density. Proper nutrition and supplementation will also help in improving teeth health and overall vitality.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

Dr. Neha Saini
I’m Vaidya Neha Saini, an Ayurvedic Physician with a strong foundation in classical Ayurveda and a passion for restoring health through natural and individualized care. I hold a BAMS degree from Shree Krishna Government Ayurvedic College, Kurukshetra, and completed my MD in Ayurveda from the esteemed Dr. D.Y. Patil Vidyapeeth, Pune. With over five years of clinical experience, I have dedicated my practice to helping patients manage chronic health conditions, lifestyle disorders, and long-standing imbalances through a holistic lens. My treatment approach integrates the timeless principles of Ayurveda with modern clinical sensibilities. I focus on addressing the root cause of illness rather than just alleviating symptoms. Over the years, I have supported patients suffering from joint and musculoskeletal pain, chronic skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, hormonal imbalances including PCOS and thyroid dysfunction, and neurological concerns like paralysis and post-stroke rehabilitation. Each case is treated with individualized Ayurvedic therapies that may include herbal medicine, Panchakarma detoxification, lifestyle restructuring, and personalized diet plans tailored to the patient's prakriti (body constitution) and vikriti (current imbalance). I provide both in-person and online consultations to make Ayurvedic care accessible and convenient for everyone. My goal in every interaction is to listen with empathy, guide with clarity, and offer treatments rooted in authenticity and clinical evidence. I firmly believe that true healing is a collaborative journey—where the patient and practitioner work in harmony to bring the body, mind, and spirit back into equilibrium. For me, Ayurveda is not just a profession—it is a way of life, a science of understanding human nature, and a philosophy of living in sync with the rhythms of nature. I am committed to walking this path with you, offering my knowledge, experience, and care at every step of your healing journey.

Priyanka ji, when you say baldness, do you mean you are experiencing general hair fall/thinning, or is it a patchy type of hair loss (like alopecia)? This will help me understand your condition better and guide you more accurately.

1 Bhringamalakadi Taila - extly apply and massage for 10 min. 2 times

2 Jeevamrita Leha or Chyavanaprasha Leha-1 tsf after food 2 times with milk

3.Shuddha Shilajatu-250mg+ Saptamrita Loha - 500mg+ bhringaraja Churna -3gm after food 2 times with honey and ghee

Diet and Lifestyle Pathya: Fresh fruits, fresh vegetables, nutritious food, adequate sleep Apathya: Avoid salt, sugar, tobacco, and alcohol. Overconsumption of salt and sugar increases dandruff and hairloss. Avoid large amounts of vitamin A Avoid strong soaps, shampoo or hair sprays. Only use mild castile soaps. Hats and wigs are apt to cause hair to fall out faster, since they limit the air to the scalp.

Avoid tension, stress, worry and hurry.

Hello Priyanka ji,

I truly understand your concern . At the young age of 25, facing baldness and hair loss can be very stressful. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊

✅PROBABLE CAUSES AS IN YOUR CASE -

☑️Nutritional deficiency =poor absorption leads to hair + teeth issues together. ( try to follow diet tips given below)

Stress & irregular sleep =blocks hair regrowth cycle.(maintain a regular sleeping pattern)

Hard water (Bengaluru water issue) = makes hair thin & brittle. ( there are many water softening solutions available which converts hard water to soft water)

✅ AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT-

✅INTERNAL MEDICATION ( to nourish from inside)

1Narasimha Rasayanam – 1 tsp morning empty stomach follwed by warm. Water (very effective Rasayana for hair & teeth both).

2 Bhringrajasava – 30ML -0- 30Ml with equal water after food (improves hair root strength).

3 Groo 1-0-1 after food ( Essential hair protein supplement)

4 Triphala powder – 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime (detox & improves nutrient absorption).

✅ EXTERNAL REMEDIES (for scalp)

👉Neelibhringadi Tailam – gentle scalp massage 2–3 times/week.

👉Aloe vera pulp + hibiscus leaf paste – apply as a hair pack weekly, keeps scalp cool & nourished.

👉Avoid chemical shampoos – use mild natural shampoo (shikakai/reetha-based).

✅If bald patches are there Apply paste of INDRALUPTA MASHI mix with lemon juice and apply on only bald patches ✅ DIET AND LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

✅Include black sesame, curry leaves, soaked almonds, amla, ghee daily.

❌Avoid excess spicy, oily, fried foods, late-night work.

👉Drink plenty of water, but avoid very cold water.

👉Practice Bhramari & Anulom-Vilom pranayama – reduces stress + nourishes scalp circulation.

Priyanka ji, since your baldness is not genetic and started only in the last 2 years, it is reversible with proper care

Your hair and teeth problems together indicate that your body’s nutrition absorption is weak

if you follow the above plan, you should start seeing hair strengthening within 2–3 months and gradual regrowth later.

Please don’t lose hope — you are very young, and this can be corrected naturally with patience.😊

Wish you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

I am working in Ayurveda field from some time now, started out as a general physician at Chauhan Ayurveda Hospital in Noida. That place taught me a lot—how to handle different types of patients in OPD, those daily cases like fever, digestion issues, body pain... but also chronic stuff which keeps coming back. After that I moved to Instant Aushadhalya—an online Ayurveda hospital setup. Whole different space. Consultations online ain’t easy at first—no pulse reading, no direct Nadi check—but you learn to ask the right things, look at patient’s tone, habit patterns, timing of symptoms... and yeah it actually works, sometimes even better than in person. Right now I’m working as an Ayurveda consultant at Digvijayam Clinic where I’m focusing more on individualised care. Most ppl come here with stress-related problems, digestion issues, joint pain, that kind of mix. I go by classic diagnosis principles like prakriti analysis, dosha imbalance and all, but also mix in what I learned from modern side—like understanding their lifestyle triggers, screen time, sleep cycles, food gaps n stress patterns. I don’t rush into panchakarma or heavy medicines unless it’s needed... prefer starting with simple herbs, diet change, basic daily routine correction. If things demand, then I go stepwise into Shodhan therapies. My goal is to not just “treat” but to help ppl know what’s happening in their body and why its reacting like that. That awareness kinda becomes half the cure already. Not everything is perfect. Sometimes ppl don’t follow what you say, sometimes results are slow, and yeah that gets to you. But this path feels honest. It’s slow, grounded, and meaningful.

Dr. Sumi. S
I am a dedicated Ayurvedic physician with specialized expertise in Shalakya Tantra, focusing on the diagnosis and management of disorders affecting the Netra (eyes), Karna (ears), Nasa (nose), Mukha (oral cavity), Danta (teeth), and Shira (head and ENT region). My training and clinical experience have equipped me to treat a wide range of conditions such as Netra Abhishyanda (conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early and advanced cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Karna Nada (tinnitus), Pratishyaya (chronic rhinitis and sinusitis), Mukhapaka (oral ulcers), Dantaharsha (dental sensitivity), and Shirashoola (headache and migraine). I routinely incorporate classical Ayurvedic therapeutic techniques like Kriya Kalpas, Nasya, Tarpana, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, Gandusha, Pratisarana, and Dhoomapana, along with internal Rasayana and Shamana therapies, ensuring treatments are both effective and tailored to each patient’s prakriti and condition. Beyond my specialization, I bring over two years of clinical experience managing multi-systemic disorders. My approach blends classical Ayurvedic principles with a sound understanding of modern diagnostics and pathology, allowing me to handle cases related to metabolic disorders (such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, and PCOS), musculoskeletal issues (like arthritis and back pain), gastrointestinal disorders, skin conditions, and women’s health concerns, including infertility and hormonal imbalance. I believe in evidence-informed practice, patient education, and holistic healing. My focus is always on delivering compassionate care that empowers patients to actively participate in their health journey. Through continuous learning and clinical research, I remain committed to upholding the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda in a way that aligns with today’s healthcare needs.

Hello Priyanka

Thank you for explaining your condition in detail. Your case of early hair baldness at 25 years (non-genetic) along with teeth issues indicates pitta-vata imbalance, rasa–rakta dhatu kshaya (weak nourishment of tissues), and asthi dhatu dushti (bone & teeth weakness). The approach will focus on Pitta shamana (cooling), Rasayana (rejuvenation), Dhatu poshana (tissue nourishment), and strengthening hair roots as well as dental health.

🔎Recommended Investigations

1. Vitamin D3 & Calcium profile – to check bone and teeth health. 2. Iron studies (Hb, Ferritin, Serum Iron) – as deficiency causes hair fall. 3. Thyroid profile (TSH, Free T3, T4) – as thyroid dysfunction often leads to hair loss. 4. Vitamin B12 levels – to rule out deficiency. 5. Dental X-ray / scaling consultation – for gum & cavity assessment.

💊Internal Medicine

First 15 days – Agni Deepana & Dhatu Poshana

1. Triphala churna – 3 g at bedtime with lukewarm water (for detox & digestion). 2. Amalaki rasayana – 1 tsp with honey in morning (rich Vit C, nourishes hair & gums). 3. Lakshadi guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food (for bones & teeth support).

After 15 days – Rasayana & Hair Nourishment (for 45 days)

1. Bhringaraj churna – 3 g with warm water, twice daily after meals. 2. Narikela Lavan (Coconut-based formulation) – 1 g with lukewarm water after lunch & dinner (strengthens teeth). 3. Chyawanprash – 1 tsp in morning with warm milk (general immunity & tissue building).

🍀External Therapy

1. Bhringamalaka taila / Neelibhringadi taila – apply on scalp thrice a week, leave for 30 min, wash with mild herbal shampoo. 2. Oil pulling (Gandusha) – swish sesame oil or coconut oil for 5 min daily morning (for gum & teeth health). 3. Herbal tooth powder (Triphala + Clove + Rock salt, fine powder) – use instead of chemical paste, once daily.

🥗Diet & Nutrition Tips

❌Avoid

1.Junk, spicy, deep-fried foods (increase pitta, worsen hair loss). 2.Excess coffee, alcohol, smoking. 3.Refined sugar, soft drinks, bakery foods.

✅Include

1.Amla (gooseberry), curry leaves chutney, drumstick leaves. 2.Milk with turmeric at night (strengthens teeth & bones). 3.Tila (sesame seeds), almonds, dates, figs (for calcium & hair). 4.Warm jeera–dhania–saunf water daily.

Lifestyle Modifications

1.Sleep: At least 7 hrs, avoid late nights (vata-pitta aggravates hair fall). 2.Exercise: 30 min brisk walk + yoga.

🧘🏻‍♀️Yoga for Hair & Teeth:

1.Hair: Adho mukha svanasana, Vajrasana, Sarvangasana (if no neck issue). 2.Teeth: Simhasana (lion pose – improves gum circulation). 3.Pranayama: Sheetali & Anulom Vilom – 10 min morning & evening (cooling & stress relief). 4.Stress management: Practice meditation; chronic stress worsens hair loss.

Follow up

Check progress after 45 days. Based on reports and response, rasayana medicines can be continued for 3–6 months for long-term benefits.

✨ With right care, your hair & teeth strength can improve naturally. Be patient, consistent, and follow up for adjustments.

With kind regards, Dr. Sumi

Hair loss at 25 can feel concering, especially when it is not genetic. Since you mentioned it’s not hereditary and that you’re also experiencing teeth issues, there might be an underlying imbalance affecting both. In Ayurveda, hair and teeth health often connect to the bones, or asti dhatu, and are also influenced by the body’s doshas—especially Pitta and Vata. Given your situation, focusing on balancing these doshas could be beneficial.

First, take a close look at your diet, as it plays a crucial role in Ayurveda. Increase intake of foods that nourish the bones such as sesame seeds, almonds, and leafy greens. Till oil (sesame oil) can be particularly helpful. Include dairy products like milk which support the body’s calcium needs. Also, drinking amla juice daily helps reduce Pitta, which can contribute to hair loss.

Ensure you’re avoiding foods that aggravate Pitta and Vata. This means, stay clear of too much sour, spicy, and processed foods. Instead, opt for freshly cooked meals where possible, which are easier to digest and more balancing.

Managing stress is also key. Practices like yoga, pranayama, and meditation can help reduce stress, which may aggravate Vata and Pitta leading to hair ailments. Rest and proper sleeping patterns are imperative; aim for 7-8 hours to support regeneration and body balance.

For topical solutions, massaging your scalp with Brahmi oil or Bhringraj oil at least twice a week can promote circulation and nourishment. Additionally, preparation of herbs like Tripahala and Ashwagandha might support general wellness and help with recovery.

Regarding teeth issues, pay attention to daily oral hygiene using techniques like gandusha (oil pulling) with coconut oil, which is not only good for dental health but detoxifies. Chewing neem sticks is a traditonal practice that, as per Ayurveda, helps maintain oral health.

If conditions don’t improve or worsen, it would be ideal to follow up with a local Ayurvedic doctor who can provide personalized treatment based on your full medical history and constitution.

Hair loss and baldness can be complex in nature, especially when not linked to genetics. In Siddha-Ayurveda, such issues often relate to imbalances in the doshas, specifically an increase in Pitta dosha, which can contribute to hair thinning and loss. Here’s a tailored approach that you might find useful:

First, assess your dietary habits. It’s vital to pacify Pitta, so include cooling, sweet, and bitter foods. Try incorporating coconut water, aloe vera juice, and amla (Indian gooseberry) which can help stabilize Pitta. Avoid spicy, oily, and fried foods which may aggravate this dosha.

Second, focus on daily scalp care. Apply Brahmi or Bhringraj oil regularly to nourish the scalp and strengthen roots. Massage the oil into the scalp gently which can also improve blood circulation to the area, supporting hair health.

Stress might also exacerbate hair issues, so consider integrating meditation and breathing exercises like Pranayama in your daily routine. These can help balance energy channels (nadis) and promote mental calmness, supporting overall wellness.

For your teeth problems, which could be linked to bone tissue imbalances (Asthi dhatu), ensure adequate calcium intake through natural sources like green leafy veggies and sesame seeds. Rinsing with saline water can also be beneficial for oral hygiene.

Deeper issues may lie in your lifestyle, so try to establish a regular routine with sufficient sleep and hydrate well throughout the day. If the condition persists, consulting with an Ayurvedic practitioner in Bengaluru can provide further personalized care, possibly exploring herbal formulations such as Triphala that could address underlying imbalances.

This guidance should fit into your daily life in Bengaluru, yet immediate dental concerns might require a dentist’s attention to prevent any serious complexities.

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 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. Shaily Rathore
I am Dr. Shaily Rathore and my whole thing with Ayurveda started from a really personal space where I felt modern life was like... too fast, too noisy, and kinda disconnecting us from ourselves. I mean, there's this crazy ancient wisdom just sitting there in texts like Charak Samhita n Sushrut Samhita—and honestly, every time I read through them, there's always something new I hadn’t noticed before. Those classics don't just talk about herbs n diseases, they talk about how your lifestyle, emotions, food, sleep, all of it connects. That idea of balance? Not just between doshas like Vata Pitta Kapha, but also in how we think, live, even how we breathe. I mainly work with people who wanna heal without jumping straight into heavy meds. Like ya, if your condition allows it, I’ll def choose dinacharya tweaks or basic food corrections before writing up a full medicine plan. I’ve seen in many cases, your body can bounce back when you just give it the right rhythm again. I pay close attntion to small patterns — like when ppl say they’re just tired “all the time” or can’t digest food even though reports look fine. These tiny clues matter. I also make Ayurvedic content online—in Hinglish, btw—'cause honestly I feel ppl listen more when you talk their language. Nothing too textbooky. It's more like “let’s chat about your gut issues over kadha,” y'know? There’s way too much info out there, but not all of it makes sense to the average person. I like keeping it real, simple, and actually do-able. Whether you’re lookin’ to figure out why your skin’s always reacting, or how to manage stress without burning out, or just curious how to live more sattvic—I’ll be there. I’m not the kind to rush into pills n powders. But I also won’t sit back if deeper intervention’s needed. Each person’s body tells a diff story, and honestly I just wanna help you read yours better.

Dr. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. 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. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

Dr. Anupriya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
ChatGPT said: 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. 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. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

Dr. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Suchin M
I am someone who’s honestly just really drawn to how deep Ayurveda goes—like really deep—not just treating what’s showing on the surface but getting into what’s actually causing it underneath. I really believe that even those complicated lifestyle diseases, stuff like diabetes or BP or obesity that people think they’ll just have to live with forever, can totally be managed with Ayurvedic principles. Not magically or overnight, but through proper diagnosis, diet tweaks, daily habits, and herbs that actually work if you use them right. That’s the part I focus on—making Ayurveda work practically, not just in theory. After finishing my BAMS, I’ve worked with chronic conditions for over a year now in clinical setups. Mostly patients dealing with long-term stuff that doesn’t go away with one pill—usually the kind of disorders rooted in stress, wrong food choices or too much sitting. I’ve seen that if you really listen first, like actually listen—hear their story, feel where they’re coming from—half the work’s already done. Then when you assess their Prakriti, figure out where the doshas are out of balance, and connect that with their history (plus any modern test reports they might bring), it gives you this full picture that’s so valuable. My treatment plans aren't one-size-fits-all. Sometimes it’s about bringing agni back into balance. Sometimes just clearing aam helps. Most people are shocked that things like bloating or even periods issues can shift just by aligning food and herbs with their constitution. And if the case is acute or there’s a red flag, I have no problem referring for emergency allopathic care. Integrative care makes sense—Ayurveda doesn’t have to be isolated from modern medicine. My aim? It's not just to fix a symptom. I want people to feel at ease in their own body again. To build habits they don’t need to break later. To know their own rhythm, not just follow some generic health trend. That’s what Ayurvedic healing means to me... not perfect, but real.
