Has anyone here experienced hair loss with Cisplatin? I was told that this drug usually doesn't cause hair loss, but I seem to be shedding a lot of hair. It could also be postpartum hormones as I just had a baby 4 months ago, but I just wanted to see about others experiences. No clumps of hair, just a lot of shedding.
