Eyebrows and eyelashes

Less than one minute read time.

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help.  I finished my chemo (4 x TC) on 16th February and my radiotherapy finished on 1st April.  My hair is starting to grow (hooray) albeit it's not very much yet.  However my eyebrows and eyelashes are continuing to drop out. My bottom lashes are gone altogether and the top ones are nearly gone.  My eyebrows have also gone very sparse.  Is this normal as I thought they would start to grow the same time as my hair

    Hi purplelc / Kim,

    Did you mean to post this as a New Discussion in the Breast Group ?

    As it will probably get more replies if you repost it there as a New Discussion as all the breast group members will get an email containing your post to the group.

    Also mention if you taking any hormone therapy tablets now, as these can also thin out hair ?
