Guest guest Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 Ellen, I didn't have that problem but I know at one time there was a discussion about hair growth. I am sure someone will get back with you. Hugs nne Breast Cancer Patients Soul Mates for Life http://www.geocities.com/chucky5741/breastcancerpatients.html BreastCancerStories.com http://www.breastcancerstories.com/content/view/433/161/ Angel Feather Loomer www.angelfeatherloomer.blogspot.com Check out my other ornaments at www.geocities.com/chucky5741/bcornament.html Lots of info and gifts at: www.cancerclub.com HELP! Okay, I KNOW that someone will know the answer to this question here. I hope so anyway. Several days ago, I noticed that, along with the hair growing back on my head (which I am obviously thrilled about), I seem to have hair on the sides of my face! YUCK! It is blonde but it's like fuzz. Is this a chemo side effect, a hormonal thing, because I'm now menopausal???? Did anyone experience this? If so, what the heck do I do about it???

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 A hormonal thing because you are menopausal. Shave it off. You will probably notice that the hair on yoour legs decreases and reappears other places. If it ain't one thing it is another! You actually have the same amount of hair, it is a redistribution thing! Ruth > > Okay, I KNOW that someone will know the answer to this question here. > I hope so anyway.

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 Hi Ellen, I did not experience this, but I was on a board where several women reported this. I'm not sure if it's related to specific chemo. Sorry I can't tell you want to do (other than shave?), but I think I remember the women saying it eventually went away. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Ha, ha ha! You are too funny. I won't shave it. Don't want to be the next attraction at the carnival. " The bald, skinny, bearded lady " . I'm going to get my neighbor to try cutting it really close with scissors. Thanks everyone for your answers. > > " Fuzz on the side of my face...yuck!
