It seems you are experiencing a condition known as Alopecia Areata, where hair falls out in small, round patches. This can occur due to imbalances in the body's immune system, often linked to stress or Pitta dosha imbalance in Ayurveda.
Ayurvedic Approach:
Herbal Remedies:
Bhringraj Oil: Known for its ability to rejuvenate hair follicles, it helps in promoting hair regrowth.
Amla: Amla powder or oil is effective for strengthening hair roots and preventing further hair loss.
Ashwagandha: This adaptogen helps manage stress, which can be a significant factor in alopecia.
Neem Oil: If there's any scalp inflammation or infection, neem oil has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.
Diet and Lifestyle:
Pitta-balancing foods: Avoid spicy, sour, and oily foods that aggravate Pitta. Opt for cooling, calming foods such as cucumbers, leafy greens, and coconut.
Manage stress: Engage in calming practices like yoga, meditation, or breathing exercises (Pranayama) to balance your mind and reduce stress.
Topical Applications:
A mixture of Brahmi and Amla oil can be massaged into the scalp to stimulate hair growth and strengthen the roots.
Panchakarma (Detox):
If you're open to it, undergoing a Pitta-pacifying Panchakarma therapy (like Shirodhara) can be beneficial in balancing the doshas and rejuvenating the scalp.
Suggested Course:
Internal: Take Bhringraj or Amla powder daily to nourish your hair from within.
External: Apply Bhringraj oil or Neem oil to the affected area regularly.
It is important to follow these treatments consistently, and results may take a few weeks to months. If the condition persists, it may be helpful to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner who can provide a tailored treatment plan
