Can Trichotillomania be completely cured?

It’s a behaviour that can be managed effectively with the right treatment. A holistic approach, including behavioral therapy and homeopathy, helps control urges and prevent relapses.

Is hair-pulling a sign of something bigger?

Hair-pulling is often linked to emotional distress, anxiety, and impulse control challenges. It’s not just a habit—it’s a coping response that needs understanding and support.

How do I stop pulling my hair naturally?

Managing stress, practicing mindfulness, using fidget tools, and identifying triggers can help. Holistic treatments like homeopathy provide long-term relief by addressing emotional imbalances.

Can homeopathy help control hair-pulling urges?

Yes, homeopathy helps regulate emotional triggers, reduce anxiety, and improve impulse control without side effects.

Is hair-pulling linked to OCD or anxiety?

Yes, many people pull hair to cope with stress or emotions. Managing underlying anxiety is an important part of recovery.

How long does it take to see results with homeopathy?

Results vary, but some people notice a reduction in urges within weeks. Long-term improvement can take a few months with consistent treatment and lifestyle changes.

Can diet impact hair-pulling behaviour?

Yes! A diet rich in omega-3s, magnesium, and antioxidants supports brain health and emotional stability. Avoiding caffeine and processed sugars may also help reduce compulsive urges.

Patient Name - Pooja Malhotra
Treatment Name - Trichotillomania
Duration - 10 Months
Clinic - Sector 14, Gurugram

I struggled with hair-pulling during stressful phases, which led to visible thinning over time. It affected my confidence and made me anxious about my appearance. After starting treatment, the urges gradually reduced, and I noticed steady improvement in hair growth in the affected areas. This progress helped me feel more in control and confident.

Patient Name - Ananya Chatterjee
Treatment Name - Trichotillomania
Duration - 8 Months
Clinic - Minto Park, Kolkata

Hair pulling had become an automatic response for me during anxiety, and I wasn’t fully aware of it at first. With treatment, I began noticing better control over these urges, and the thinning patches slowly improved. The consistent support made managing the condition feel easier and more reassuring.
