    TLDR Ashwagandha may help reduce symptoms of adrenal hyperplasia.
    The document reported a case study of a 57-year-old woman with non-classical adrenal hyperplasia who self-treated with Withania somnifera (Ashwagandha) for 6 months. This treatment led to significant decreases in her serum levels of 18-OH-hydroxycorticoserone, 17-OH-pregnenolone, corticosterone, and 11-deoxycortisol by 31%, 66%, 69%, and 55%, respectively. The biochemical improvements were accompanied by a noticeable reduction in scalp hair loss, suggesting potential benefits of Ashwagandha in managing symptoms associated with adrenal hyperplasia.
