Hairfall reduce - #604

Ah, hairfall can be really distressing, especially when it feels sudden and severe like this. But don’t worry too much, Ayurveda offers some pretty effective solutions. The weight gain and hairfall both could be linked to imbalances in your doshas, particularly Kapha and Pitta. Stress and dietary habits can disrupt these doshas, you know. First off, addressing your diet will be crucial. Try to include more bitter and astringent-tasting foods, they help balance Pitta. Think dandelion greens or neem if you can find them. Avoid anything too spicy or oily, as they can aggravate Pitta dosha further. Now about lifestyle, manage your stress – easier said than done, right? But seriously, stress has a knack for throwing everything out of whack. Practices like yoga and meditation work wonders. Even 15 minutes daily can make a big difference. Exercise contributes too, so something like brisk walking or a light jog can help, just don’t over-exert, especially if you're not used to it. For your scalp, massaging is great with warm coconut or sesame oil, infused with bringraj (false daisy) or amla (Indian gooseberry), ashwa—and if you are able to—apply the oil twice a week. These herbs are ancient hair-nourishers. Leave it on for at least an hour before washing. Amla also works wonders if consumed, prefer fresh or as juice if possible, but powder can work too. Ensure you are getting enough sleep, aim for 7 to 8 hours. Poor sleep increases stress hormones, which is no good for the hair! A herbal tea before bed, like chamomile, can promote better rest. One more thing, check on your gut health. If your digestion is off, your tissues won’t be nourished correctly. A simple trikatu powder (a combo of long pepper, black pepper, and ginger) in warm water before meals boosts digestion. A teaspoon would suffice. If there's no improvement or it feels like it's getting worse, please see a qualified healthcare provider. Sometimes underlying conditions like thyroid imbalances can play a role in weight and hair concerns that need attention. Remember this is a journey; patience is the name of the game.
