https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/Treatments-and-side-effects/Heceptin/m-p/31107#M3508 Hi debbru,<BR /><BR />Being male, I didn't worry at all about my hair thinning during my treatment - I actually embrased it. it was Cysplatin in particular that caused my hair to thin out and made my tinittus significantly worse.<BR /><BR />I am led to believe that it is not the Herceptin that causes hair loss, but the other cytotoxis used in the treatment. So I would have thought that hair should be able to grow back if you are ONLY on Herceptin. But I am only guessing.<BR /><BR />If this concerns you, ask your oncologist or GP.<BR /><BR />How do you go in a hat or beret?<BR /><BR />Best wishes,<BR />Rick Mon, 26 Aug 2019 03:06:25 GMT RJG 2019-08-26T03:06:25Z https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/Treatments-and-side-effects/Heceptin/m-p/30739#M3448 <P>Can hair grow back during treatment of Herceptin or only when finished.</P> Sat, 03 Aug 2019 09:48:21 GMT https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/Treatments-and-side-effects/Heceptin/m-p/30739#M3448 debbru 2019-08-03T09:48:21Z https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/Treatments-and-side-effects/Heceptin/m-p/31107#M3508 Hi debbru,<BR /><BR />Being male, I didn't worry at all about my hair thinning during my treatment - I actually embrased it. it was Cysplatin in particular that caused my hair to thin out and made my tinittus significantly worse.<BR /><BR />I am led to believe that it is not the Herceptin that causes hair loss, but the other cytotoxis used in the treatment.
