Subject: hair loss
Date: 02/10/2008
My friend has ovarian cancer. She has beautiful long thick hair and is worried that she will lose it when she starts chemo. I know that not everyone loses their hair but I wonder whether this will be true for her? Will she lose it or will it thin out or will she be ok?

I'm sure you know that ovarian cancer is very serious and must be treated aggressively.  I'm afraid hair loss (not just thinning) is a common side effect of the strong platinum drugs. Her SURVIVAL must be kept in perspective...hair always grows back.
