क्या हर Chemotherapy से बाल झड़ते हैं? | Cancer Treatment & Hair Loss! | Dr Praveen Kammar, SSO
Why Does Chemotherapy Cause Hair Loss?
Chemotherapy targets rapidly dividing cells to kill cancer. Unfortunately, hair follicles also grow quickly and get damaged in the process. This leads to hair thinning or complete hair loss.
Do All Chemotherapy Drugs Cause Hair Loss?
Not all chemotherapy drugs cause hair fall. Some may lead to minimal thinning, while others result in complete loss, depending on their strength and type.
Which Chemotherapy Drugs Commonly Cause Hair Fall?
Drugs like Doxorubicin, Cyclophosphamide, and Paclitaxel are known to cause hair loss. These affect hair follicles as they attack fast-dividing cells.
Can the Degree of Hair Loss Vary from Person to Person?
Yes, hair loss differs based on individual body response, drug dosage, and the type of chemotherapy. Some patients experience patchy thinning, while others lose all hair.
What Can I Do to Manage Hair Loss During Chemotherapy?
Patients often use wigs, scarves, or cold caps to manage the emotional and physical effects. Knowing which drug you are on helps in planning ahead.
Is Hair Loss Always Permanent After Chemo?
The extent and recovery vary, but this video focuses only on which drugs cause hair loss. For specific outcomes, always consult your oncologist.
How Can You Prepare for Hair Loss During Chemotherapy?
Understanding the chemo drug used gives clarity. Preparing with headwear and discussing cold caps with your doctor can be helpful.
What’s the Main Reason Chemo Drugs Cause Hair Fall?
Chemo drugs can’t differentiate between cancer cells and other fast-growing cells like hair follicles. That’s why hair is often affected during treatment.
