Yes, mine grew back fairly quickly. It seemed like I didn't even notice the process of them growing back in. One day I just noticed that they seemed to be full like they were before. I thought that was so weird that they fell out again, because I was only on Herceptin at the time--I had finished my Taxol & Carbo a couple months earlier.

I think they were only thinned for 6 to 8 weeks, but that is just a guess.
