Hi Skylark, I'm one of the community champions here in this group and I just picked up your post. I don't recall any tightness when my hair grew back, but my scalp can be tender in places from time to time. I'm also on letrozole and zoledronic acid. Are you using any particular brands of shampoo or conditioner that might be impacting this? Hope this eases for you soon, if not might be worth a chat with your GP. Best wishes
