Does PRP cause hair to shed more?

MatthewDavid
Ok so i got some prp injected in my scalp late August. I First noticed some shedding for a few weeks then t stopped. Recently it picked up again but it seems to be shedding more than usual and it's sort of concerning. Would please like some closure to give me a little hope that this will work otherwise im looking into a hair transplant.
