Cold caps
Ive been cold capping with AC. Kept maybe 10% of my hair. Round 4 next week. When you move to the week Paclitaxel, do you still need to cold cap then? I bring my own from home.

Hi kitkat5 - great question and thankyou for starting the conversation.
While we wait for others to share their lived experience with cold caps - we found an older post that had quite alot of chatter:
Scalp cooling - should I stop, done 11 chemos and 5 to go | BCNA Online Network
Also sharing our website page Scalp cooling to prevent or reduce hair loss
Perhaps after you gather all of the insights and information, it could be a good idea to have a conversation with your breast care nurse as well.
All the best with the rest of your treatment. Hopefully the cold capping hasn't been too uncomfortable for you so far.
