Not all chemotherapy causes hair loss. The degree of hair loss can be different for different types of drugs. For example, hair falls during chemotherapy in the treatment of breast cancer.

Most patients have hair loss during cancer treatment. The reason for this is chemotherapy. Chemo targets fast-growing cells, which damages the hair roots and hair starts falling. Sometimes radiation therapy can also cause hair loss.

A special mixture of cancer drugs is used in every type of chemotherapy treatment, due to which not all chemotherapy patients experience rapid hair loss. Apart from hair loss, thinning of hair or baldness can also occur in cancer treatment.

The problem of hair loss is usually seen only after about 3 weeks. First the hair of the head goes away, then the hair of other parts of the body starts falling. However, its effect can vary on different patients.

Chemotherapy does not cause permanent hair loss. If hair is falling out as a side effect, it can grow back within a few months after the treatment is over. According to experts, hair grows back in 3 to 5 months. You can try to strengthen your hair again.
