Hi
has anyone experienced hair loss on cisplatin & vinorelbine ?
Hello Ela61,
My hair thinned out a little but I didn't lose it and anyone who didn't already know me already would not have known.
I was advised to use just baby shampoo on it because tis is gentler.
I hope your treatment goes well.
Derek.
Thank you but I washed my hair this morning and it came out in clumps, I was totally devastated after being told my hair could thin but I wouldn’t lose it, I wasn’t expecting so much loss, I suppose the damage to the hair follicles is already irreversible, I know it must sound vain but I’m finding the treatments side effects very hard and keeping my hair was keeping me going xx
