Chemotherapy without hair loss

Hello everyone!

Unfortunately, I have to go through chemotherapy and surgery again. My second opinion surgeon gave me the name of chemotherapy drugs that do not lead to hair loss. Unfortunately, I cannot find these names.

Is there anyone here who has been prescribed chemotherapy without hair loss?

Thank you for the answer!

    hey, sorry to hear you need to go through chemo again. My sister just finished her second round, with now hairloss. It is Caeylex- doxorubicin. Well there is hairloss but not getting bald. The hair quality goes down and feels like feather.. but still some hair. My sister had such beautiful hair.... very thick and nice... now she gets more.of her depression from hair status....but I am.just thankful she is still around.
