TLDR Malatyadi tailam effectively improved hair fall, dryness, and thinness in a patient.
The document reports on a 19-year-old female patient with hair fall (Khalitya), dryness (kesha rukshata), and thinness of hair (kesha tanutva) who was treated with Malatyadi tailam, an Ayurvedic oil. The treatment showed significant improvement in the patient's hair fall, dryness, and thinness after regular application. The study suggests that Malatyadi tailam is effective in managing Khalitya by balancing the tridosha (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and promoting hair follicle regeneration and healthy hair growth, offering a safe and cost-effective treatment option.
September 2019 in “International journal of research in ayurveda and pharmacy” Ayurvedic treatment with Bhringraj Vati and coconut oil was safe and effective for reducing hair fall.
