Incredibly thin, fine hair, STILL, 3+ years after chemo

Options

Really wasn't sure of the best place to post this, but has anyone dealt with incredibly thin hair after chemo? I always just assumed it would fill in and thicken over time, but despite copious amounts of biotin, and even some attempts at Rogaine, it's still super thin, over 3 years after completing chemo.

When I say thin, I mean...you can see my scalp through my hair, no matter how I style it.

Any suggestions for how to deal, or what this could be caused by? I miss my thick hair!!!

    I was hoping you had gotten some answers. I have the same issue. I used to have super thick hair and now it is so, so thin. I finished chemo in November 2015 and hair did not even start growing back until Feb 2016. I really miss my thick hair too. Sorry you are also experiencing this.
