Hallo everyone,,

I had ECT in 2006,almost 8 times on alternative days.I have problem on hair falling after the treatment. At present I feel trauma about the treatment that I had been administered. I am very upset as I should be avoided that at any cost but circumstances made me to go for ECT . my all hair falling seems not stopping..

If ECT (electroconvulsive therapy?) is absolutely essential, I guess you could wear a cute scarf over your hair until it grows back. I'm not so sure ECT -- which messes with your brain -- is a good thing, especially as you don't seem enthusiastic about it. But the decision should be totally up to you. Hair loss can be hidden. Let nosy people think you're going thru chemo (wear a pink scarf & tee shirt).

Rainey. That's the best advice you could have given. Great input about the scarf and tee shirt.

Anishsamuel, I wish you well!! I truly hope everything works out for you.
