Appetite Loss

Appetite loss or poor appetite are common side effects from cancer and its treatment. This means that you may eat less than usual, not feel hungry at all, or feel full after eating only a small amount.

Ongoing appetite loss may lead to serious complications. These include weight loss, not getting the nutrients that the body needs, and fatigue and weakness from muscle loss, which is called cachexia (see below). These issues can slow recovery and lead to breaks in treatment.
