Emotional Triggers in Hair Fall: A Homeopathic Case Study at Dr Batra’s
1 Chief Homeopathic Consultant, Cuttak Branch, Dr Batra's Positive Health Clinic Pvt. Ltd, Qualification BHMS
Hair fall and alopecia are common conditions affecting both men and women worldwide, with significant psychosocial impact on self-esteem and quality of life. Factors such as genetics, hormonal imbalance, nutritional deficiencies, emotional stress, and lifestyle changes play a vital role in its pathogenesis. Conventional treatment often provides temporary relief but fails to address the underlying constitutional causes. The homeopathic approach emphasizes individualized treatment, considering the patient’s physical generals, mental state, and miasmatic background. This paper presents a case of chronic hair fall in a young adult male with strong emotional etiology, managed successfully with constitutional remedies over a period of 12 months, demonstrating the holistic role of homeopathy in hair disorders at Dr Batra’s.
