Hello everyone

Do any of you have any experience with the hormone treatment Ribociclib?

It's a cancer drug and I wonder does it have the same side effects as chemo has, does it cause hair loss? Will my hair ever grow back?

I realise it's a long term treatment (3 years) and when I remember the side effects and how chemo made me feel, am I going to experience the same  feelings? Am I going to feel normal again?

If any of you are taking this drug, I would live to hear your experience with it.

Thank you

  • Hi

    I’ve just started on it last week and so far no side effects at all. My oncologist and the chemo nurse said it is unlikely to cause hair loss though may thin it a little but letrozole can do that too. Hope you get on well with it .
