Hair Loss Home Remedies

It is important to confirm your doubt about hormonal imbalance. Consult a specialist who would advise you certain hormonal tests to confirm. After a correct diagnosis treatment options would be many including medications (if required) and diet.


For hair loss and to get rid of facial hair you can try the following remedies till then:

  • Massage your hair with a mixture of coconut oil and castor oil when warm for 15-20 minutes lightly and gently with the tips of your fingers. Then wrap a hot towel around your hair and leave it for 30-45 minutes before washing the hair. This is a very effective remedy for hair loss.


  • Lavender oil when applied on regular basis on the scalp also increases the growth of hair significantly.
  • For facial hair try to pluck the large and thick ones with a sterilized tweezers.
  • Try to bleach them naturally with the help of lemon or use chemical bleach if the hair growth is not too dense.
  • Waxing and threading the unwanted facial hair would also be considered a good option.
According to your height your weight is also above your ideal body weight, it should be ideally 8-10 kg less. If you suspect hormonal imbalance also check for PCOS (poly cystic ovarian syndrome) as weight gain and facial hair growth are two striking symptoms of this syndrome.
