Hello Mam ❤️
At menopause, your body’s hormone levels especially estrogen start dropping. Estrogen is what keeps your hair thick, shiny, and strong. When it reduces, the hair roots become weak, the scalp becomes dry, the hair cycle becomes short, and you start losing more hair than you grow. That’s why you’re seeing continuous hair fall, thinning, rough texture, and faster greying. Low protein and vitamins in your diet make the roots even weaker. This is not your fault it’s a natural hormonal shift, but it can be corrected and slowed with the right internal strengthening.
🌿 Internal Medicines (start with Ama Pachana)
1. Ama Pachana (first 7 days) • Amapachana Vati – 2 tablets twice daily after food × 7 days
2. After Day 7 — Main Internal Medicines (6–8 weeks) • Bhringrajasava – 20 ml with equal water twice daily after food × 6 weeks • Narasiṃha Rasayana – 1 teaspoon at night × 6 weeks • Keshya Vati – 1 tablet twice daily × 6 weeks • Shatavari Gulam – 1 teaspoon twice daily × 6 weeks • Punarnava Mandura – 1 tablet twice daily × 6 weeks • Guduchi Ghan Vati – 1 tablet twice daily × 6 weeks
💆♀️ External Care (3–4 days a week) • Neelibhringadi Oil – apply on scalp 30 mins before bath • Bhringraj powder paste – once weekly on scalp • Avoid harsh shampoos, use mild herbal shampoo
🧪 Investigations Needed
These are essential because menopausal hair fall often relates to deficiencies: • Vitamin D • Vitamin B12 • Ferritin (iron stores) • Thyroid profile (TSH, T3, T4) • HbA1c (if fatigue or weight changes)
✔️ Do’s • Protein daily: dal, paneer, eggs, sprouts • Include 1 teaspoon ghee daily • Warm water sipping • Include nuts (almond, walnut) • Early dinner
❌ Don’ts • No crash dieting • Avoid frequent hair coloring or chemicals • Avoid very hot baths • Reduce sugar and packaged foods • Don’t comb wet hair aggressively
Menopausal hair fall feels scary because it comes suddenly and heavily, but with consistent internal rasayana support, correction of deficiencies, and gentle external care, your hair fall will reduce, the thinning will slow, and the scalp will regain strength in the next 6–12 weeks. You are not alone in this many women experience exactly this, and it is manageable with the right support.
Warm regards,
Dr. Karthika

Hair loss during menopause is the result of: –Hormonal changes with sharp drop in Estrogen (Estrogen ↓, Vata ↑) –Nutritional depletion –Stress + internal heat (Pitta ↑)
This can be reversed significantly with Rasayana & hormonal balancing therapies.

Menopausal hair fall can indeed be distressing, but Ayurveda provides several profound solutions tailored to your unique needs. During menopause, hormonal changes can cause an imbalance in the Pitta and Vata doshas, affecting the hair’s overall health.
Firstly, it’s essential to balance these doshas. Consider incorporating cooling foods into your diet to soothe Pitta. Favor hydrating fruits like watermelon, cucumber, and adequate citrus. Also, reducing spicy or overly acidic foods can help maintain internal coolness.
Massaging the scalp with oils like bhringraj or amla infused ones can strengthen hair follicles. Do this at least twice a week before washing your hair. This will help in both nourishing the scalp and improving blood circulation—vital for reducing hair fall and also premature greying.
Adding adaptogenic herbs, ashwagandha or shatavari, to your regimen might be beneficial, aligning body’s hormonal balance. These can be consumed in tablet or powder form with warm milk, preferably before bedtime.
Focus on enhancing the dhatus (body tissues); consuming nourishing grains and proteins like quinoa, mung dal, and almonds can aid in fortifying hair health further.
Managing stress is absolutely crucial, as it’s a silent predator of health in such situations. Incorporate breathing exercises, ameditation, or even light yoga—these are known to provide substantial mental peace and alleviate stress, positively affecting hair health.
Lastly, while topical and dietary changes are vital, regular check-ins with a healthcare provider to monitor hormonal levels can ensure no drastic imbalances exist. Ayurveda is a gradual process; consistency and patience will yield noticeable results over time so stick with these practices for a few months, seeing gradual improvements becoming more apparent.
Hair fall during menopause often ties back to hormonal shifts and imbalances, which can disrupt the balance of doshas, particularly Pitta and Vata. Here are some tailored Siddha-Ayurvedic approaches you might consider:
First step is oil application to the scalp, which can nourish and support hair. You might try Bhringraj oil, renowned in Ayurvedic traditions for hair health. Massage a small amount into your scalp gently every evening before bed. Leave the oil in overnight and wash it out in the morning with a mild herbal shampoo. The regular use of Bhringraj may help calm Pitta and stabilize Vata dosha, encouraging healthy hair growth and reducing thinning.
Next, evaluate your diet. Incorporate Pitta-pacifying foods like cooked vegetables, whole grains, and fresh fruits while limiting spicy, fried, and excessively sour foods. Including Amla (Indian Gooseberry) in your diet can provide Vitamin C and antioxidants, supporting overall hair vitality. A beneficial preparation might include Triphala powder; take half a teaspoon with warm water before bed to maintain good digestive fire (agni).
Additionally, consider herbal formulations, such as Shatavari and Ashwagandha, which may help balance hormone levels during menopause when taken regularly. Consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for a tailored dosage.
For hair thinning and grayness, internal balancing is essential. Focus on stress reduction through Pranayama practices — five minutes of deep, rhythmic breathing in the morning and evening could balance Vata dosha.
If symptoms persist despite these efforts, it would be wise to see a professional. There could be other underlying issues needing further evaluation. Hair fall can sometimes signal broader health considerations beyond menopause, particularly if it remains severe over a sustained period.
