@jeant1948, some people have reported hair loss with Hydrea treatment. It may also be related to age. There are medications you can take to help with the hair loss, but you would want to clear it with your hematologist first.

I'm glad that your platelet levels are improving. How are you feeling?

What are the medications for hair loss?
Mine is getting pretty thin.
I have been on HU for 8 months.

I feel great. Just the hair loss problem. My hematologist acted like he had never heard of hair loss before and had no suggestions. Thanks for your reply.
