Re: Femara to blame??

Hi Donna
Just wanted to say I have experienced similar. It has taken about 22 months since last chemo for my hair to get to a reasonable length - about 4" on top but only about 2" at back! I have been on femara for 20 months and hair is still missing at both sides of forehead just like in male pattern baldness. Fortunately my fringe covers this. I did read somewhere that femara causes this, Also side effects leaflet with tablets states that 1 to 10 out of 100 patients may experience hair loss! When I took wig off I started going to hairdresser every 3/4 weeks to try and get hair into a shape/style. I think this helped hair and me! When I was prescribed Femara I was told about hot flushes but not much else!
