IAt first I ought the thinning of hair on my legs and pubic area was part of the whole menopause adventure. Then I realized the hair on my arms was more transparent and finer- peach fuzzy.
In recent months my hair has slowly shed abnormally then my scalp started crawl. Then within the last month it has accelerate and my scalp shows everywhere, but my hair has been short since I had chemo in 2000. But the loss shows no sign of stopping. Yesterday I finally caved and bought a wig. The eyelashes are beginning to jump ship. And all I can do is watch helplessly. Don't get blood work done until after the first of the year. There are so many possible reasons or maybe none at all. Yikes! Ok that's all. I've learned on this site. Mahalo

You have to go to Dr

Sounds like Areata.

Why did not you let your hair grow once chemotherapy was gone?
Have you worn long hair before?
