Does anybody have any recommendations for hair products/supplements that might help my hair grow back. It seems like I keep losing more hair even though my chemo ended about three weeks ago. How long before it starts to grow back? I am still seeing lots of hair on my brush every time I brush it.

Hope everyone had a nice weekend.

Hugs,
Sara
