Hello I get your point. It is quite a handful to manage high cholesterol, fatty liver, hair loss, and dry skin together with hypothyroidism. But, the good thing is that all these problems are connected and can be handled simultaneously with an appropriate Ayurvedic, root-cause-based method.
YOUR CONCERN – SUMMARY
You have:
High cholesterol Fatty liver Hair loss & dry skin Hypothyroidism A diet rich in fats and sugars Symptoms present for more than 6 months<
AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING As per Ayurveda, the condition is mainly a case of:
Agnimandya (low digestive & metabolic fire) Kapha predominance Ama (metabolic toxins) accumulation Medovaha Srotas dysfunction → fatty liver & high cholesterol Rasavaha & Asthivaha Srotas imbalance → hair fall & dry skin Thyroid involvement further slows metabolism
👉 Hence, the treatment should be centered around detoxification + metabolism correction + nourishment.
AYURVEDIC TREATMENT PLAN
SHODHANA (DETOX & METABOLIC RESET) (Mild and safe, depending on strength)
Deepana–Pachana medicines to improve digestion Liver supportive herbs to lessen fat deposition Gentle bowel regulation (to remove Ama)
If needed, a clinical detox (such as Virechana) can be performed later under the guidance of a doctor.
SHAMANA (INTERNAL MEDICATION) (For cholesterol, fatty liver, thyroid support & hair health)
1.Arogyavardhini Vati 1-0-1 after food – for fatty liver & lipid metabolism
2.Medohar Guggulu 1-0-1 after food – for cholesterol control
3.Kanchanar Guggulu 1-0-1 after food – for thyroid metabolism support
4.Amalaki Rasayana 1 tsp morning on empty stomach– strengthens the body & improves skin quality
Duration: At least 3 months, with regular follow-up
It is better not to discontinue the use of thyroid medication abruptly. Dose adjustment is done only after lab improvement.
DIETARY GUIDELINES (MOST IMPORTANT)
STRICTLY AVOID
Fried foods Sugar, sweets, bakery items Cold drinks & packaged juices Excess dairy (cheese, cream) Late-night eating
ALSO, IT IS IMPORTANT TO Consume warm, freshly cooked meals Consume moong dal and vegetable soups Consume bitter vegetables (lauki, tori, methi) Consume ghee - small quantity Consume turmeric, ginger, cumin, black pepper Drink warm water throughout the day
👉 The diet is a direct fatty liver + cholesterol + thyroid helper.
LIFESTYLE & ROUTINE CORRECTION
Wake up before 6:30 am Take 30–40 minutes walk daily Don’t sleep during the day Sleep before 11 pm Practice: Anulom Vilom Bhramari Kapalbhati (if suitable)
EXTERNAL CARE (FOR HAIR & DRY SKIN)
Hair Once a week oil massage with Bhringaraj Taila / Neelibhringadi Taila Do not use chemicals on your hair, and do not wash the hair with hot water
Skin After bath apply sesame oil or coconut oil Do not take very hot shower
INVESTIGATIONS TO MONITOR
Every 3 months: Lipid profile Liver function tests TSH, T3, T4 Vitamin D Hemoglobin
EXPECTED RESULTS
Improved digestion & metabolism Gradual cholesterol level reduction Fatty liver reversal over several months Less hair fall & better skin hydration Better thyroid stability and energy levels
Metabolic problems, as you have, are at the core of all your issues and, to a very large extent, they are reversible if approached holistically.
With discipline in diet + Ayurvedic medicines + lifestyle correction, you can see clear improvement within 8–12 weeks.

When high cholesterol fatty liver hair fall dry skin and hypothyroidism, come together, it usually means low metabolism with poor fat processing, and weak tissue nourishment
You can manage all of this together with the following combination
Arjuna capsules one capsule twice daily after Help cholesterol control and support liver and heart function Arogyavardini vati one tablet twice daily after food with warm water Improves fatty liver and lipid metabolism Triphala churna 1 teaspoon with warm water at bedtime Supports digestion, liver, cleansing, cholesterol, deduction, and skin health
Amla juice 5ML with water once daily at morning Very important for hair fall, dry skin, liver, health, and thyroid balance Ashwagandha churna half teaspoon with warm milk once daily Reduces stress related hair fall and improves skin dryness
Mahabringaraja taila- scalp massage to be done on alternate days Avoid fried food, bakery items, oil, sugar, and late dinner Include more vegetables, fruits, soaked nuts and required protein Do not skip meals
Your liver is congested due to the high sugar/fat diet. A blocked liver cannot produce healthy blood, which is directly causing your dry skin and hair fall. We must detox the liver to fix the hair and skin.
Medicines 1 Arogyavardhini Vati: 2 tablets twice daily with warm water (before food). 2 Kanchanara Guggulu: 2 tablets twice daily with warm water (after food). (for thyroid) 3 Hamsapadiyadi Kshayam 2tsp-0-2tsp with 2tsp warm water before food (for thyroid) 4 Triphala Churna: 1 teaspoon with warm water at bedtime. 5 Syp Liv 52 DS 1tsp-0-1tsp after food
External Therapy For Hair: Massage Neelibhringadi Tailam into the scalp 3 times a week. For Skin: Apply Eladi Tailam 30 minutes before bathing to cure dryness without clogging pores.
Dietary & Lifestyle Advice STOP Sugar and Maida completely. Sugar is the main cause of Fatty Liver, not just fat. Morning Detox: Drink 1 glass warm water + 1 tsp Lemon + 1 tsp Honey on an empty stomach to cut liver fat. Chew 5-6 raw Curry Leaves and eat 1 Amla daily for hair growth. Do Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutations) daily. No daytime sleeping.

For managing high cholesterol and a fatty liver, along with hair fall, dry skin, and hypothyroidism, Ayurveda provides several approaches. Let’s focus on balancing your doshas, especially Kapha and Pitta, which might be aggravated in your condition.
First, addressing your diet. Favor a Pitta-balancing diet, which includes consuming plenty of vegetables, like bitter gourd and cucumber, and fruits such as pomegranate and apples. Avoid oily, spicy, and overly salty foods to help manage cholesterol and protect the liver. Incorporate whole grains like brown rice and barley, which are lighter and support reducing excess cholesterol. Add spices like turmeric, cumin, and coriander to help improve metabolism and enhance your digestive fire or Agni.
For hypothyroidism, supportive foods can include warming spices such as ginger and black pepper. Avoid goitrogenic foods like soy, cauliflower, and broccoli when consuming them raw, as they might interfere with thyroid function. Also, proper hydration with warm water and herbal teas infused with herbs such as ginger and cinnamon can be beneficial.
Lifestyle wise, regular exercise is critical. Gentle yoga poses and pranayama (breathing exercises) can help stimulate metabolism and support liver health. Specific practices like Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation) harmonize bodily functions and should be incorporated daily.
For hair fall and dry skin, apply herbal oils like Bhringraj or coconut oil with a few drops of essence oil to the scalp to nourish hair follicles and promote growth. Abhyanga, a daily warm oil self-massage, not only enhances skin texture by improving circulation but revitalizes the nervous system, supporting overall Vata balance, which can dry out the skin.
Herbal support may include Triphala to support digestion and eliminate ama (toxins). For liver health and cholesterol, Arjuna is a commendable herb. It is advisable to consult an Ayurvedic doc due to the personalized nature of these suggestions and to adjust based on individual conditions, considering any ongoing medications for hypothyroidism.
Engage in regular Abhyanga massage routines and avoid cold showers, as these are typically not recommended for dry skin and might worsen the condition. Follow these lifestyle and dietary changes diligently, integrating them step-by-step for optimal results. If there are any severe symptoms, prioritize consultation with a healthcare provider.
Start with For hypothyroidism: Divya Thyrogrit 2-0-2 after food with water Do Simhasan pranayam specially for Thyroid problem, lom -vilom bhastrika bhamri 5-10mins daily twice. For fatty liver: Tablet Liv-52 1-0-1 after food with water Avoid processed fatty fast sugary foods, junk food. For Hair fall: Amalaki Rasayan 1-0-1 after food with water Light massage on scalp twice weekly with Neelibhringadi Hair oil keep overnight and wash in the morning with herbal anti hairfall shampoo. For Dry skin: Massage your body with sesame oil during winter season and coconut oil during summer season 15 minutes Before bath on alternate day.
