I finished Chemotherapy last July and my hair has started to grow but is very, very fine and patchy, and still bald in places.

Will this improve , are there any products/ treatments that will help with hair growth, or is this how my hair will be?

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.

    I'm due to start chemotherapy soon so can't answer your question at the moment. However, the online community is divided up into different support groups so if you can tell me what type of cancer you were having chemotherapy for I could give you a direct link to that group where you could ask your question. Alternatively you can look through this list of cancer types and choose the right one for you. 

    When you have a minute it would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment so far into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.

    If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help
