I posted "Chemotherapy Permanent Hair Loss" in the Her2group thread a number of months ago. You may want to search and read the replies. I have since connected with other women around the world who have experienced permanent hair loss after taking Taxotere. It is not common but Dr. Slamon confirmed for me that it does happen. If anyone from this site wants to connect with others with this problem, please visit

I sincerely hope you have a different long term outcome than me.
