So first thing, not talking about my head, Im talking about the pubic area. I was told by my Dr I would lose hair in that area, which I did. Its been over 2 mnths since I finished RT and just noticed hair growth and the color is black when it was somewhat gray. Has thing happened to anyone else?

It happened to me. My pubic hair got darker. However, 4 years later my pubic hair is back to grey.

My hair has been comical since my ADT and radiation. Radiation was two years ago. ADT completed in June 2024

Beard - no change

Underarms - fell out; hasn't returned

Chest - fell out; hasn't returned

Pubic - less of them but still there; no color change

I was all white everywhere. Lost the hair on my legs. All other areas stayed the same. Actually preferred the no hair look in shorts.

Not what you're looking for?
