Summary

This study tracks hair loss in 170 women with breast cancer who are taking hormone therapy. Researchers want to learn how common hair loss is, when it starts, how long it lasts, and how severe it gets. Participants will fill out questionnaires about their hair loss and quality of life. The goal is to better understand this side effect so doctors can help women manage it.
