    I received the Hairmax a few days ago and am trying it for my thinning hair. It is expensive, but QVC has a special 120 day return policy on this item so I can send it back in 4 months if it does not do the job.

    I have a Hairmax and have been using it for quite a while. I've also gone back to using Rogaine. With the 2 of them, I notice that the hair loss is decreasing. Can't say I'm getting much new growth but at this point, I'm satisfied to maintain. I think if I had gone this route earlier, the hair loss might not have been as bad. But no one warned me. I do have to use a hairpiece as I can no longer cover the thin spots.

    Hi Chrissyb You said your hair came back after six months? Do you mean six months after getting off the drug? My hair loss is really heartbreaking for me.

    I have significant thinning on top and around the crown. i have been on Femara for 3 years now. I too am wondering if hair grows back once this drug is stopped. It is difficult seemingly to get an answer on this question.

    Has everyone dealing with hair loss tried taking biotin? Seems to really help....

    3.5 years post treatment?and starting aromasin now I am realizing my hair returned fine, but my eyebrows and eyelashes never did. Like someone else on this thread, I had them all through chemo. Like 8 weeks later they begin to thin and mostly disappear. So could it be Aromasin?? Damn!!

    I got a little bit of hair back after Arimides but I still am very very thin on top. It's been about 1 1/2 years now so I don't think it will get better
