Hair Loss And Its Treatment: An Ayurvedic Perspective

The document discusses hair loss from an Ayurvedic perspective, attributing it to imbalances in the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—and disturbances in Rakta and Asthi dhatus. Pitta dosha is primarily responsible for follicular damage, while Vata and Kapha contribute to dryness and obstruction. Ayurvedic treatment aims to address these imbalances through purification, pacification, rejuvenation, and lifestyle changes. Key treatments include the use of herbs like Bhringraj, Amalaki, and Brahmi, and therapies such as Nasya, Shirodhara, and Taila Abhyanga, which are believed to control hair loss and promote regrowth, ultimately restoring hair health and systemic balance.
