Balding already? Here's what really works to reverse hair loss in men
Hair loss in men is one of the most common yet emotionally charged concerns as it affects not just appearance but also confidence, career readiness and personal relationships. While it is tempting to search for a one-size-fits-all remedy, the truth is: treating hair loss is both a science and an art, and timing is everything.
In an interview with HT Lifestyle, Dr Ajara Sayyad, Medical Director at The Eterne Clinic in Mumbai's Hiranandani Gardens (Powai), shared, 'Medical management is most effective when hair thinning has just begun (typically Grades 1 to 3). The goal here is to preserve what's remaining and improve scalp function.' Treatments may include:
Dr Ajara Sayyad said, 'In many cases, men who are hesitant to take daily tablets can now opt for injectable DHT blocker mesotherapy under medical supervision, offering a more convenient and targeted approach.'
She added, 'Regenerative therapies have also shown tremendous promise. These include PRP, GFC, iPRF and Hair Exosome Therapy, which help stimulate weakened hair follicles and enhance density naturally over time.'
According to Dr Sayyad, when baldness progresses to Grade 4 and beyond, restoration becomes the focus. Surgical and cosmetic interventions help recreate hairlines, boost coverage, and improve appearance.
Key options include:
Dr Ajara Sayyad answered, 'Every patient's hair journey is different. That's why we begin with a scalp analysis and trichoscopy, which helps assess the stage of hair loss, follicle vitality, and donor hair reserves. Based on these insights, we tailor a plan that may involve medical therapy, regenerative support, cosmetic enhancement, or a combination of all three.'
She concluded, 'Hair loss in men is no longer an irreversible destiny. With evolving medical advancements and minimally invasive techniques, it's possible to both preserve and restore what was lost, often without anyone noticing you've had a procedure. The earlier you seek help, the more options you keep open because when it comes to hair restoration, it's not just about regrowth — it's about reclaiming confidence and control.'

From stress to self-mastery: Affirmations and conscious practices to reset your life instantly
The growing pace at which the world is moving makes it chaotic and brings physical and mental pressures, not allowing us to function with ease. Not being aligned to natural rhythms of sleeping, eating and resting mentally, we are fatigued in more than one way but it is time we outsmart the pandemic called 'stress' through easy, needful and doable steps. In an interview with HT Lifestyle, Coach Samira Gupta, Executive Life and Wellness Coach, said, 'Stress isn't a setback — it's a signal for growth. Begin with the 5-Second Rule: when overwhelmed, count down 5-4-3-2-1 and take immediate action, shifting from paralysis to progress. Engage in somatic practices like body scans or mindful movement to reconnect with your body and release tension.' She recommended, 'Utilise cognitive reframing to view challenges as opportunities, asking, 'What is this teaching me?' Incorporate gratitude journaling to shift focus from stressors to strengths. These tools don't just manage stress, they harness it, transforming pressure into purpose and adversity into advantage. Embrace these practices to evolve into a resilient, self-aware leader.' Bringing her expertise to the same, Shweta Rhea Chopra, Spiritual Life Coach, shared some simple yet powerful suggestions to live consciously, combating everyday stress and leading to self mastery. 1) The moment you wake up, sit up straight on your bed for about two minutes. Bring all your attention to your heart center, connect to your being within and smile at yourself and everything out there. Thank the universe for blessing your day in the best way. Say to yourself, 'Everything in the universe supports me', announcing victory over all your endeavors. 2) Play your favourite music that elevates or inspires your spirit while dressing up. Look at yourself in the mirror and say, 'I attract blessings and fruitful outcomes and need to chase nothing'. 3) Fix 10 minutes of 'me-time' just before sleeping and write down your observations to better yourself in every area of life, be it your work or relationships. Release your worries and make little notes of communication to the divine creator with the belief that you are being heard. Only if we become as conscious of our inner grooming as we are of ourselves outwardly, life would change its pace to a much manageable one.

IBS vs IBD: Gastroenterologist shares the main differences between the two common gut conditions
Gut health is getting spotlighted in wellness conversations today, and for all the right reasons. Because of the growing discourse around it, there are a lot of remedies and superfoods for common, upset gut issues like bloating, acid reflux, or diarrhoea. But what if these gut issues are actually signs of underlying health conditions that require medical intervention, not just your go-to gut superfoods? IBS and IBD typically share very similar symptoms and may even be confused with everyday digestive issues like bloating, which commonly happens after a heavy meal. It's common to brush them off as minor issues, but they can also hint at IBS and IBD. In an interview with HT Lifestyle, Dr Anukalp Prakash, Director of Gastroenterology at CK Birla, Gurugram, shared the key differences between IBS, IBD, and their symptoms, diagnosis and treatments. He explained the basics, addressing the confusing overlap of symptoms, 'The spread of digestive health problems is on the rise, and two conditions frequently mentioned in such a context are IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease). Even though the two share a common set of symptoms and both involve the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, they are quite distinct in causes, implications, and treatment approaches. Understanding the difference is key to effective management and future well-being. Both IBS and IBD benefit from early diagnosis to be treated most effectively and with the best long-term prognosis.' Dr Anukalp Prakash shared a detailed guide with HT Lifestyle, distinguishing the key differences between IBS and IBD, along with treatment pathways: ALSO READ: Tired of chronic constipation?
