Is anyone else noticing hair loss while using Letrozole? I've been on it for 15 months and I reckon I've lost about a third of my hair thickness. Older ladies in my family tend to have thinner hair anyway but I'm thinking this is connected to the Letrozole? My other treatment was lumpectomy and 3 weeks radiotherapy just over a year ago with a clear mammogram last November.
Good morning Leolady
Does the Sea Kelp really help as I have been on Letrozole since January and have fine hair anyway but have noticed it is getting thinner so I keep it in a short bob. Was taking the awful Tamoxifin before but fine this not much better so stiff and achy all the time.
Will look into the sea kelp just another tablet to take.
Have a wonderful day!!!

I think it really is. Apparently be careful as it can affect your thyroid, well there would be an SE!!!!
I had a lot of fine hair before. It still is fine but a lot of it.And seems to be growing daily
Good luck
