Chemotherapy can affect not only cancer cells but also healthy cells. In this, the cells present in the hair follicles also start getting destroyed and the hair starts falling. When healthy cells are damaged, along with the hair on the head, the hair on the eyelashes, eyebrows, and other parts of the body also start falling.

Hair loss can start 1-3 weeks after chemotherapy and hair loss can be severe after 1-2 months. It can also cause baldness. Hair loss occurs during chemotherapy treatment, but hair does not regrow immediately after discontinuing the treatment. This may take some time.
