Aditi’s Hair Fall After Jaundice: Her Traya Plan

Traya Journey at a Glance

• A young woman noticed her hair fall wouldn’t stop after a bout of jaundice and heavy medication around October.
• Alongside shedding, she also had dandruff and a scalp that felt “normal” but kept swinging between dry and slightly oily.
• Her plan included an anti-dandruff night lotion, scalp oil, conditioner, and daily supplements like Hair Vitamin and Iron Santulan as part of a personalized hair treatment plan.
• She was guided to expect a gradual timeline: scalp clearing first, then treatment, with better control around month four and visible improvement from month five onward.
• The biggest shift wasn’t just the products - it was finally having a routine that felt doable even with her gym-heavy lifestyle and upcoming wedding.

“I don’t know… it’s just not stopping.”

Aditi (name changed), a fitness-focused young professional from a metro city, had been powering through her days like usual - gym, sweat, showers, repeat. But sometime after October, something started to feel off.

“I had jaundice a few months ago,” she said on her first call with a Traya hair coach. “After that, there was complete hair fall… a lot of medication at that time, so maybe… I don’t know. But the hair fall isn’t stopping.”

It’s the kind of sentence that carries more weight than it seems. Not dramatic. Just tired. Like she’d been waiting for her body to “go back to normal,” and it simply wasn’t.

And now, with her wedding coming up in February, Aditi had a new worry bubbling underneath: if she was going to be using hair sprays, makeup, and styling products for events, would any of this get worse?

When the trigger is health, hair is often the aftershock

Aditi wasn’t on medication anymore, but she had been through “a lot” of it when she fell ill. Her coach explained that yes - hair fall after medication can happen. But what stood out was that Aditi’s story didn’t stop at that single trigger.

On the call, the coach also mapped out other possible contributors she could already see in Aditi’s profile and scalp pattern: dandruff, stress, low metabolism, and low iron.

Here’s why that layering matters. Dandruff isn’t just “flakes.” The coach explained it in simple, visual terms: when the scalp is irritated, the hair roots can become weaker and more damaged, and shedding often looks worse. And when internal health is off - whether it’s metabolism, absorption, or iron - hair may not get the nutrition it needs to stay anchored and strong.

For many women, that’s how the spiral starts: the scalp feels uncomfortable, the roots feel weaker, and the body is still recovering in the background. Over time, it can turn into dandruff and dry scalp hair loss that feels confusing because it’s not just one issue - it’s several small ones stacking together.

Does dandruff really cause hair fall?

Yes - because dandruff can irritate the scalp and weaken the roots. When the scalp is inflamed or constantly itchy, hair fall can increase, and treatment absorption can also get affected until the scalp is calmer and cleaner.

The question she didn’t want to ask (but did)

In the middle of the routine explanation, Aditi paused with a very real, very human question.

“Actually, my wedding is in February… there will be a lot of makeup and products used in my hair by default. That won’t cause a problem, right?”

The coach didn’t shame the question or give a rigid answer. She reassured her: it’s okay - events happen. Just make sure to wash the hair properly after the program/events are done, especially if styling sprays are used.

It sounds small, but moments like this matter. Because hair loss doesn’t happen in isolation. Life keeps moving: gym schedules, celebrations, photos, functions, and the pressure to look like yourself again.

The lifestyle piece: gym sweat, frequent washes, and a confused scalp

Aditi mentioned she works out regularly, which means she used to wash her hair around four times a week because of sweat. Her scalp, she said, was “mostly dry,” but since dandruff began it sometimes felt oily too - then she corrected herself: “Actually normal.”

That “normal” is common when your scalp is in flux.

Her coach suggested a simple shift: reduce shampoo washes to twice a week and keep the scalp clean so that the treatment absorbs well. On the other days, if needed, she could rinse with plain water.

For Aditi, this was the first time someone connected her routine to results - without making her feel like she’d been doing everything wrong.

The turning point was the clarity

This was Aditi’s first consultation call with a hair coach. And instead of handing her generic advice, the coach gave her a rhythm she could actually follow.

She explained the kit as two parts: weekly wash-day products and daily supplements.

Aditi’s wash routine became straightforward:
On the night before shampoo day, she was told to apply the Anti-dandruff Night Lotion on her scalp without massage - just gently spread it with fingertips. The next morning, about 30 minutes before shampoo, she’d apply the Scalp Oil to the scalp and then wash. After shampoo, she’d use conditioner on hair length for a minute or two.

She also clarified a doubt Aditi had immediately: if she washed her hair three times in between, would she need to repeat the whole routine every time? The coach simplified it - oil and shampoo routine twice a week; other days can be plain water if she wants.

The inside-out support: why her supplements mattered

Along with her topical routine, Aditi was given daily supplements - Hair Vitamin and Iron Santulan - because the goal wasn’t only to calm the scalp, but also to support what’s happening internally.

From the Traya range, Hair Vitamin is designed for hair loss linked to nutritional gaps and includes biotin along with vitamins and minerals, with natural DHT blockers like pumpkin seed extract and bhringraj extract.

Iron Santulan is positioned for iron deficiency - linked hair fall; it supports natural iron absorption from diet and helps manage anaemia-related hair fall. Many women only hear “take iron,” but the deeper point is that hair fall due to anemia can be tied to how well the body restores and absorbs iron over time.

That’s why this kind of iron deficiency hair fall recovery is rarely overnight - it’s a steady rebuild.

Aditi’s supplement routine was also made practical: take them after food for better absorption, and if she missed a day, she didn’t need to “double up” - just restart the next day.

The part most people don’t expect: time

Aditi was told something many people need to hear early: results take time, and that’s not a failure - it’s the process.

Her coach explained a broad timeline:
In the first month, the focus is scalp cleaning and dandruff reduction so that treatment absorption improves. In the next phase, a serum may be added, and she was pre-warned that in the initial weeks, hair fall can sometimes look like it increases as weaker strands shed first - so healthier growth can follow. From around the fourth month, she was told she should see better hair fall control, and from the fifth month onward, thickness, density, and texture can start improving.

For someone already anxious about her wedding photos, this wasn’t just “information.” It was a plan with patience built into it.

Resolution: from panic to a plan she could stick to

By the end of the call, Aditi sounded lighter. Not because her hair fall had magically stopped on day two - but because she now had a map.

She had already started the kit the day before. “I started yesterday after seeing the instructions,” she told her coach. “Today is the second day. I had breakfast and took the morning tablet.”

That’s what resolution looks like at the beginning: not a dramatic before-and-after, but the moment someone goes from helpless to consistent - especially when they’re balancing sweat-soaked gym days and wedding season styling.

And as her coach reminded her, the journey wouldn’t be done alone. Follow-ups every 12–15 days, progress tracking, and a diet plan inside the app - because digestion and hair fall connection is real when nutrient absorption is part of the bigger picture.
