Get these tests done: CBC Ferritin (iron stores) Vitamin D B12 Thyroid profile —your hair fall is mainly due to imbalance of Vata dosha and Pitta dosha. The change in place, climate, and water quality has increased dryness (Vata) and heat/stress (Pitta), which weakens the hair roots. Instead of only applying oils, we need to balance your body internally and improve scalp nourishment according to your constitution. –Internal Medicines: 1) Tab. Saptamrit Lauh – 1 tab bd after food 2) Cap. Bhringrajasava / Syrup – 2 tsp with equal water bd 3) Tab. Arogyavardhini Vati – 1 tab BD after food —External Treatment: Apply Bhringraj Taila / Neelibhringadi Taila, 2–3 times/week Gentle scalp massage, avoid heavy oiling if not suitable and herbal shampoo wash —Pathya (Do’s): Light, cooling diet Green vegetables, amla, soaked almonds Adequate sleep —Apathya (Don’ts): Excess spicy, oily, fermented food Stress, late nights Chemical-based hair products, hard water exposure –Advice: Prefer filtered/soft water for hair wash Manage stress and maintain routine (Dinacharya) – follow up with reports or after 15 days

Hair fall after shifting place is common due to Jal Parivartan (water change) + Vata–Pitta imbalance + stress, leading to Khalitya (hair fall) and weak hair roots. 1. Correct the root cause (very important) Use filtered/RO water for hair wash (hard water is a major trigger) Final rinse with Amla water or 1 tsp apple cider vinegar in water 2. Oil therapy (choose what suits you): Since heavy oils didn’t suit you: Use light oils → coconut oil + a few drops of castor oil Apply 2–3 times/week, keep for 1–2 hrs (not overnight if it doesn’t suit) 3. Internal support (strongly needed) Amla juice (20 ml daily) → strengthens roots Ashwagandha (for stress) at night with milk Black sesame seeds (1 tsp daily) for hair nutrition 4. Gentle hair care: Use mild herbal shampoo (avoid harsh chemicals) Avoid frequent washing with hard water No tight hairstyles / heat styling 5. Stress control (key factor): Daily Pranayama (Anulom Vilom + Bhramari) – 10–15 min Proper sleep (7–8 hrs) Diet (Hair nourishing) Add: ghee, milk, almonds, dates, green vegetables Avoid: junk, excess tea/coffee, spicy & dry food Expectation Hair fall control in 4–6 weeks, regrowth in 3–4 months with consistency.
