Personal Care Products for Women After Chemotherapy

My sister-in-law in India has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer and has recently started chemotherapy. She’s now experiencing skin rashes and other side effects. I’d like to send her some personal care products from Australia that can help with comfort and hygiene. Things like toothpaste, toothbrush, gentle skin care, and other suitable items for someone undergoing chemo.

Could anyone recommend specific brands or products that are safe and effective for women going through chemotherapy?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Re: Personal Care Products for Women After Chemotherapy

Hi @SVS 

What a wonderful way to support your sister in law when she is going through treatment. 

 

If others have suggestions this is a great place to share. 

 

Our health professionals would also be able to assist with reccomendations, please call 13 11 20 for some support and information. 

 

Take care,

Felicity
