What causes body parts to "fall asleep"?

Can cancer causes our body hairs to fall?

  • Answer:

    Cancer does not make hair fall out. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy cause hair to fall out. The cells in the hair follicles that make the hair are very fast-growing compared to other cells in your body. Many drugs to treat cancer attack fast-growing tumors, and these can often kill the cells in the hair follicles, too. The hair on the top of your head is faster growing than other hair, so cancer treatments will cause hair there to fall out first, but often hair all over the body falls out. Eyebrows, eyelashes, and other body hair.

Cancer doesn't cause the hair to fall out, it is the medication they use to *treat* the cancer, called chemotherapy that causes the hair to fall out... And yes, body hair sometimes falls out from chemotherapy as well as the hair on the head.
