Dear Rajesh, First of all you should know that, hair loss is not just a cosmetic issue but a deep rooted health issue with specific reason behind it. Treating the cause could the first step of management- Here are some causes - Nutritional deficiencies like iron, vitamins , magnesium etc Digestion disorders- IBS, Malabsorption, constipation or diarrhoea etc Hormonal disorders like thyroid disorders, Pcos, diabetes etc Poor scalp health & hygiene Lack of oiling of scalp & dryness Excessive stress and lack of sleep Please evaluate the cause and go for the treatment options. Ayurvedic management of baldness focuses on addressing underlying imbalances in the body, promoting hair health, and enhancing overall vitality. Here are some key approaches: 1. Dietary Recommendations: Nutrient-Rich Foods: Include foods rich in vitamins and minerals, such as leafy greens, nuts, seeds, and whole grains. Hydration: Drink adequate water to support overall health and hair moisture. Spices: Incorporate herbs and spices like turmeric, fenugreek, and black sesame, known for their beneficial effects on hair. 2. Herbal Remedies: Bhringraj (Eclipta alba): Often referred to as "king of herbs" for hair, it can promote hair growth and prevent premature graying. Amla (Indian Gooseberry): Rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, it nourishes hair follicles and promotes hair growth. 3. Home Treatments: Scalp Massage: Regular oil massages with herbal oils like Bhringraj oil or coconut oil can improve circulation to the scalp. Avoid if there is any skin infection on scalp like dandruff or seborrhoea. Hair Masks: Use natural masks made from ingredients like yogurt, amla, and fenugreek to nourish hair. 4. Therapies : Procedures like Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) can help reduce stress and promote relaxation, benefiting overall health. 5. Lifestyle Practices: Stress Management: Techniques such as yoga and meditation can help reduce stress, which may contribute to hair loss. Sleep Hygiene: Ensure adequate and restful sleep to support overall health. 6. Avoiding Harmful Practices: Limit the use of harsh chemical treatments and heat styling tools that can damage hair. 7. Consultation: Always consult with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized recommendations based on individual dosha imbalances and health conditions. These approaches aim to promote healthy hair growth and overall well-being, addressing both internal and external factors.

I totally get what you’re going through. Hair loss can be super stressful. In Ayurveda, it’s often linked to an imbalance in Pitta dosha—basically, too much “heat” in the body, which can weaken hair roots and lead to shedding. Here are a few Ayurvedic tips that might help:
1. Bhringraj Oil Massage: This one’s great for nourishing the scalp. Just warm up some Bhringraj oil (you can find it online or at health stores), massage it into your scalp a couple of times a week, and leave it on for about 30 minutes before washing off. It’s known to cool down that excess Pitta and strengthen hair roots.
2. Watch Your Diet: Spicy, oily, and acidic foods can make Pitta even higher, so try cutting down on those. Go for more cooling foods like cucumber, melons, and greens—they can help balance things out from the inside.
3. Herbal Support with Amla: Amla (Indian gooseberry) is an awesome Ayurvedic herb for hair. It cools Pitta and is rich in Vitamin C. You can take it as a supplement or mix Amla powder in water and apply it as a hair mask once a week.
These steps won’t give overnight results, but with some consistency, they can really make a difference. Hope this helps, and good luck!
