The 48-year-old Mexican communicator uploaded to her account Instagram the first photo without hair with an extensive message in which she talks about the disease, chemotherapy, side effects, her family and, above all, invites more women to touch themselves and have the corresponding mammograms performed.
I had not shared any photos like this, not out of pity but because everything is a process that has to be assimilated. I know it’s just hair and although it’s not the most important thing, it is important. I said goodbye to my hair since last February 15, since seeing how it fell little by little, I do not deny it, made me feel sad, ”Martha began her message.

The former driver of Televisa She also mentioned that her doctor gave her two options to try to minimize the side effect of hair loss, one of which was the use of custom-made wigs and natural hair.
My doctor told me about 2 options, trying to preserve my hair with a device that cools your scalp but that did not guarantee that a large part of it would not fall out or have me make an oncological wig, I did not know what to do and about wigs I only knew the ones in costumes.
“Some patients had told her about custom-made cancer wigs, made of natural hair and very soft so as not to irritate the scalp, that’s how I met @capilartespelucas, so I decided on the wig, although I kept my hair as long as I could until that it began to fall out, when the fall began, in 3 days I was already practically bald, so it was hair and to wear a wig, “explained Martha.

However, the Mexican politician also decided to accept what was happening to her, as it is part of her healing process, despite experiencing aggressive symptoms.
“This is how I look without my wig, I’ve gotten used to it and it reminds me that I’m going through a healing process and every symptom, skin sores, bruised nails, white and sensitive tongue, watery eyes, tiredness, hot flashes, dizziness and all the ailments you may feel, are passing so that breast cancer never returns, “he explained.
Finally, Martha asked her followers to carry out all possible checkups as soon as possible, because early detection of breast cancer can save lives.
Get touched and get your mammograms and ultrasounds every year. My story would be different if I hadn’t detected #breastcancer in time. #timelydetection”, she finished.
