My Sister is undergoing Chemotherapy after successful Mastectomy. But so far there is no hair loss. Why isn't she losing her hair with Chemo? Is it an indication that Chemo is not working? Please help me.

No , it’s not like that . Hair loss are usually seen after 2 or 3 cycles , that’s because of hair cycle and not based on chemo effectiveness. It is not not related to chemo effect in aspect . Also hair loss is depends on the chemotherapy regimen she is having . If she is having a single drug regimen now , that may the reason for lower hair fall . Also keep in mind that hair loss is not permanent, hair will again grow after completion of chemo
