Will I lose my hair if I receive chemotherapy for uterine cancer?

Hair loss is a normal reaction after chemotherapy. Hair loss is a common side effect, but it does not necessarily occur, and the degree of hair loss varies depending on the drugs used. After chemotherapy for endometrial cancer, various side effects such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, and hair loss often occur, which seriously endanger the patient's health. Clinically, CTC cell immunotherapy is often combined with chemotherapy. Chemotherapy combined with CTC cell immunotherapy can systematically and thoroughly eliminate tumor cells, alleviate the toxic side effects of chemotherapy, regulate the body's immune function, and ensure the patient's full recovery.

Hair loss caused by chemotherapy drugs has no adverse effects on the patient's body. The main problem is the change in self-image caused by hair loss. This may cause certain psychological pressure and burden for patients who care about their image. Because hair can grow again after stopping chemotherapy, and even during chemotherapy, it can be corrected by wearing a wig. Therefore, patients who are about to receive chemotherapy or are undergoing chemotherapy must have a correct understanding of hair loss caused by chemotherapy drugs, avoid the fear caused by insufficient understanding, and accept treatment with a calm and happy mentality, which is conducive to recovery from the disease.
Patients undergoing chemotherapy can choose fruits rich in vitamin C and vitamin A, such as watermelon, banana, apple, tangerine, peach, pineapple, apricot, orange, hawthorn, strawberry, kiwi, and roxburgh.

Donkey-hide gelatin is especially good for nourishing yin and blood. You can also moxibustion the turtle shell into ash and swallow it with rice wine.
