    TLDR Chemotherapy harms healthy cells, causing side effects like hair loss and reduced immunity.
    Chemotherapy, while effective in targeting rapidly multiplying cancer cells, also negatively impacted healthy cells that divide quickly, such as those in the bone marrow, digestive system, and hair. This led to side effects including decreased blood cell production, inflammation of the digestive lining, hair loss, reduced immunity, and general lethargy in cancer patients.
