I started prp 3 months ago and have had two sessions so far will have my third soon. My shedding has decreased I went from shedding 200 hairs a day to 64 hairs a day. Im so happy the shedding has stopped. However my hair looks thinner and my crown looks worse than when I started PRP my back hair is also falling off. My hair looks completely flat. Can I ever regrow hair?

Answer: Good things take time! I am happy to hear your shedding has stopped! Androgenic alopecia can be caused by a variety of factors tied to the actions of hormones, including ovarian cysts, taking high androgen index birth control pills, pregnancy, and menopause. My recommendation would be to go to a medical professional who can help determine what may be triggering the recent increase in thinning of your hair. The best results from treatment happen when you begin treatment as soon as possible after the hair loss begins because prolonged androgenetic alopecia may destroy many of the hair follicles. As always, treatments have the best chance of being effective if they are geared to the cause of the hair loss as well as to triggering hair growth. In your case, PRP does not cause hair loss, and it will help your hair follicle regain its thickness and strength by providing the scalp with rich growth factors. Continue with your third PRP treatment, and be sure to be seen by a professional who can investigate the increase in thinning of your hair. Good Luck!

Answer: Can PRP make your hair worse?I am a 25 yr old female with androgenic alopecia. PRP in most cases will help hair loss. No known side effects so far. Worse case scenario it won’t help.
