When chemotherapy is given?

Chemotherapy usually starts within 4 to 12 weeks after surgery. It is commonly given on a 21 or 28-day cycle. Drugs are generally given weekly or once every third week, with a rest period to allow your body to recover. The length of the cycle will depend on the type of drugs used. The length of the treatment period will vary, but it often lasts from 3 to 6 months.
