    TLDR Ayurvedic treatments helped a 16-year-old regrow hair after modern medicine failed.
    A 16-year-old patient with alopecia areata, who did not respond to conventional modern medicine, underwent a six-month Ayurvedic treatment regimen including Karanj oil, Rakt Pachak Churna, Rasayan Churna, Aarogyavardhini Vati, and Jalaukavacharan (leech therapy). After three months, significant hair regrowth was observed, suggesting that Ayurvedic Shaman and Shodhan treatments can effectively manage alopecia areata.
