Hair Loss As a Result of Chemotherapy + Radiation Posted: 02-18-07 05:52am


Hey all. I suffered leaukemia when I was 8 years old and obviously I survived since im here telling the tale. However, my hair did not fully recover and there is a large segment which remains bald. I have spoken with a doctor about it, and she stated that my only option is to get a hair transplant and that even that would be dangerous and may trigger an infection. Can anyone provide me with any other options / opinions? Thanks, jay.
