What are the odds that I'll lose my hair during CMF treatment? I don't know if I should try the cold caps if I might not lose my hair. What would you do?

    Hi momwat, and welcome to Breastcancer.org. We're sorry that you have to be here, but glad you've found us!

    In general, the side effects from chemotherapy depend on the regimen you're on, the amount of medicine you're getting, the length of treatment, etc. Hope you get responses soon from other community members that have had same meds and can tell you their experiences with hair loss.

    For more information on cold caps, visit the Cold Caps page in the Day-to-Day Matter section of our main site.

    Hope this helps!
