Hlo,

I understand your concern — irregular periods + hypothyroidism + low iron + stress + rapid hair fall together clearly point to a hormonal–nutritional imbalance. The good news is: this is reversible with a systematic Ayurvedic plan. Hair loss of this type is usually telogen effluvium + thyroid-related + iron deficiency, not permanent follicle damage.

🔍 AYURVEDIC ASSESSMENT (Simple terms) Dosha involved: Vata–Pitta imbalance Dhatu affected: Rasa, Rakta, Asthi (nutrition → blood → hair) Main causes: Hypothyroidism → slow metabolism Low iron → poor blood supply to hair roots Stress → Vata aggravation → hair shedding Irregular menses → hormonal imbalance

Hello First off, thanks for opening up about what you’re dealing with. Juggling irregular periods, hair loss, hypothyroidism, low iron, and stress – especially at 21 – feels overwhelming. But honestly, you’re not stuck with this forever. You can absolutely turn things around if you take things step by step.

Let’s break it down:

What’s Happening (Ayurveda + Modern Medicine) From what you’ve described, it looks like a few things are happening at once.

Modern Perspective - Hypothyroidism slows down your metabolism, which messes with your periods and hair. - Low iron (iron-deficiency anemia) is a major reason for all that hair coming out. - Stress just makes hormones more chaotic and hair loss worse.

Ayurvedic View - Agnimandya: your digestion/metabolism is sluggish. - Rasa & Rakta dhatu kshaya: when these tissues get depleted, you feel tired and lose more hair. - Vata–Kapha imbalance: throws your periods off. - Manovaha srotas dushti: stress hits your mind-body channels, leading to more hair loss.

What’s the Plan? - Get your thyroid and periods back on track. - Sort out the iron deficiency. - Stop hair fall and encourage new growth. - Calm your nervous system and manage stress.

How Ayurveda Can Help

INTERNAL MEDICATION

- Kanchanar Guggulu: 2 tabs twice a day after food. Helps balance the thyroid and hormones.

- Punarnava Mandur: 2 tabs twice daily after meals. Boosts iron and hemoglobin.

- Ashokarishta: 15 ml with equal water, twice daily after food. Great for irregular periods.

- Bhringraj Churna: 1 tsp with warm water or milk at night. Cuts down hair fall, helps regrowth.

- Brahmi Vati or Brahmi capsules: once at night. Good for stress, anxiety, and hormonal balance.

External Care for Hair

Massage your scalp 2–3 times a week with Bhringraj or Neelibhringadi oil. Take your time – leave it on for an hour or overnight, then wash with a gentle, herbal shampoo.

Food & Nutrition (This Makes a Big Difference)

Add these to your meals: - Green leafy veggies (spinach, moringa) - Beetroot, dates, raisins, pomegranate - Black sesame seeds - Moong dal, other lentils - Warm, freshly cooked food

Skip these: - Junk food, too much sugar - Cold drinks, raw salads at night - Skipping meals

Eat iron-rich foods with something high in vitamin C (like lemon or amla) so your body actually uses the iron.

Lifestyle & Stress Tips

- Try to get to bed before 11 pm. - Do 10–15 minutes of pranayama (like Anulom Vilom or Bhramari) every day. - Move your body a little – walk, stretch, whatever feels good. - Cut down on screens at night.

Tests to Keep an Eye On

- Thyroid profile (TSH, T3, T4) - Hemoglobin, ferritin - Vitamin B12, Vitamin D - Pelvic ultrasound (if you haven’t done one already)

When Will You Notice a Change?

- Hair fall usually slows down in 6–8 weeks. - Periods start to normalize over 2–3 cycles. - Hair regrowth takes about 3–4 months. Just stick with it. Consistency really matters.

You’re not broken, and this isn’t permanent hair loss. With the right care, food, and stress management, you can absolutely get your health and hair back.

Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

Hypothyroidism + Low Iron is starving your hair roots, leading to severe fall. The irregular periods are a side effect of this hormonal imbalance.

Medicines Kanchanar Guggulu: 2 tablets twice daily (After meals). Navayas Lauh: 1 tablet twice daily (After meals). Kumari Asava: 20ml mixed with equal water, twice daily. Nasya (Essential): Put 2 drops of Anu Taila (or Ghee) in each nostril every morning.

Diet for Hair Regrowth Every morning, eat 5 Soaked Black Raisins + 2 Dates + 1 tsp Sesame Seeds. Protein: Ensure you eat Lentils (Dal) or Eggs daily. Hair needs protein to rebuild.

Hair growth is slow. Continue this protocol for 3 to 6 months to see volume return.
