I have been prescribed Letrozole after surgery and Chemo for Breast Cancer it says one of the side affects is Hair Loss. As my hair is just starting to grow back slowly this upsets me greatly.

  • I really hope you don't have any problems....but its a very small price to pay to stay well........I've got very thick hair, when I began taking Letrozole it thinned very slightly, not noticeable unless I looked at the bath plug hole after a shower. But then it grew back thickly again and much more curly.

  • Hiya, 

    I have also been on letrozole for 3 years and I have not noticed any hair loss. Other side effects are minimal too. 

    Cwtches,
