Stress causes hair loss' - What is the Ayurvedic remedy?
I have hair fall problem for last two years. I used over the counter oils for that. Not much benefit. Many people in my college have this problem. For this we are shaved. What to do to stop hair fall and regrow shed hair? Can you give medical advice? - Aravindan, email
Ayurvedic physician Dr. L. Mahadevan: Many people think of hair loss as a major problem. A human being has one lakh to one and a half lakh hair follicles. Researchers say that a person sheds up to 100 hairs every day. But, it does not grow to the same extent. You can see this while taking a shower, shampooing, or getting a headache.
Sarakar says that if you take too much Sinta Dushti, your hair will fall out. Bald head is called alopecia. Male pattern baldness is called androgenetic alopecia. Sometimes it looks like a worm bite and even the eyebrows fall off.
Hair loss can occur due to fungal infections, lack of nutrition, lack of hygiene, radio therapy, chemotherapy, iron deficiency, skin erosion etc. Seborrheic dermatitis is a cause of hair loss. People who are under a lot of stress also experience hair loss.
In Ayurveda, hair is said to be the excrement of Asthi Datu. Chiro Apyangam is a part of our culture. In southern regions they bathe with oil. After bathing and drying well in northern regions, oil is applied. In coconut oil for hair growth, oils that are distilled with other ingredients are the best.
First take a medicine for fine hair loss (take 20 grams of mustard, gooseberry, tanrikai surnam at night) and then start the treatment. Balm can be easily brewed at home.
Ponnankanni, karisalangkanni, curry leaves, red leaf, vetiver, licorice, gooseberry, mustard etc. can be added to coconut milk to make oil. Rub this oil on your hair and legs. Leave it for up to 20 minutes.
People who have a lot of dandruff can rub mustard seeds, gooseberry, tanrikaya mixed with unfermented buttermilk and take a bath. Agasthya rasayan can be taken daily by 2 spoons for those with acne. Mustard and dasamula are the main ingredients.
Others may take legyam called Narasimha Rasayana. You can eat milk and egg. 2 tablets of Kantha Centurum (500 mg) tablets can be taken in the afternoon to increase iron levels. 2 drops of Atuma Thilam or Madhuyashtiathi Thilam can be left through the nose to reduce the speed of bile.
Do not use combs that have been used by others for any reason. Change the pillowcase once a week. Hair should be cut short. Have to wait at least one year. Don't be upset that you apply oil today and your hair doesn't grow tomorrow.
There are 60 herbs for hair growth. All doctors advertise these herbs interchangeably. Many times people are fooled by advertisements, oil bottle cover image. Try brewing oil at home.
A few people get colds when oil is rubbed on the head. They can lightly heat a spoon, leave oil in it and then rub it. Even so, if you have a cold, you can use tripalathi carom oil available in the store. It belongs to mustard, gooseberry, and fennel. Does no harm.
3 Ways to Prevent Hair Loss:
1. Take one cup each of aramik, Ponnankanni, curry leaves and fenugreek and grind it. Put this paste in a cup of coconut oil and let it boil without changing its green color. Keep it in a bottle for a day and it will clear up. Separate and store the clarified oil. If you rub it on your head twice a week and rinse it with chickpeas, it will stop hair fall.
2. Grind both fenugreek seeds and fenugreek seeds and soak them in coconut oil for a week and rub them daily to stop hair loss.
3. Grind equal amounts of auri, curry leaves and curry leaves and eat 5 grams three times a day for good hair growth. Hair loss problem will be reduced.
