At 33 years old, experiencing hair fall alongside variations in your menstrual cycle can be indicative of underlying imbalances in your body, possibly related to hormonal fluctuations or nutritional deficiencies. In Ayurveda, hair health is closely linked to Rakta (blood) and Shukra (reproductive tissue) dhatus, and any disturbances in these can affect both hair growth and menstrual regularity.
To address these issues, it is essential to first focus on your diet. Incorporate nutrient-dense foods rich in iron, vitamins (especially B vitamins), and minerals to support both hair health and hormonal balance. Foods such as leafy greens, nuts, seeds, and whole grains can be very beneficial. Additionally, consuming Amla (Indian gooseberry) in powder or juice form can improve hair quality and regulate menstrual cycles due to its high vitamin C content and antioxidant properties.
Herbs like Shatavari and Ashwagandha can help balance hormones and support reproductive health. Triphala is also recommended for its ability to detoxify and rejuvenate the body, which can aid in improving digestion and nutrient absorption.
Incorporating regular physical activity, stress management techniques like yoga and meditation, and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule can significantly impact both hormonal balance and overall well-being. Gentle yoga poses such as Baddha Konasana (Bound Angle Pose) and Viparita Karani (Legs-Up-the-Wall Pose) can enhance blood circulation and help regulate the menstrual cycle.

Ah, sounds like your body's giving you some signs you can't ignore, right? Ok, let's try to unpack this. First, about the hair fall. It can be such a bother, I know, and Ayurveda really looks deeper at situations like this, connecting different parts of your life.
Hair fall and menstrual changes like you're describing could potentially be connected with your doshas — which, for you, might be Vata getting a bit out of whack. Vata governs movement and change, and when it's disturbed, it can affect both your hair and your cycles. Here's a couple of things you might wanna do:
First off, look at your diet. Include more grounding, moist foods. Things like ghee, milk, almonds, sesame seeds, and root veggies. These can help pacify Vata and nourish your hair. Also, try to cut down on dry, cold or overly spicy foods which might aggravate Vata.
Also, adding a bit of ritual to your daily routine can help calm things down. Oil your scalp with warm coconut or sesame oil before showering, 2-3 times a week. A gentle massage as you do this can improve circulation and might help nourish your follicles.
With your periods, herbal remedies like Ashwagandha can be a good friend. Ashwagandha is known for balancing hormones and reducing stress, which can be a culprit in both hair and cycle disruptions. You can take it as a powder or capsule, just be consistent though, it doesn't work overnight.
Oh, and don't forget stress. Easier said than done, I know, but practicing yoga or even simple pranayama exercises daily helps to put your mind at ease, balancing both your cycle and your hair health.
But hey, if these changes don't get you sorted soon, absolutely chat with a healthcare professional in person to rule out any other issues like thyroid stuff or PCOS. Balancing our bodies takes time, so be patient with yourself.
