PRP Hair Loss Treatment. Hollywood, CA

Hi Sara

I have checked them and my iron was 38 and my ferritin level 35. I started more iron supplement ( Thorne brand ) with vitamin c and lysine to increase absorption . It went up over 40 points in 6 weeks . My iron is 76 and ferritin 55, I want to have it over 70. Also my DHEA and testerone levels were normal . I currently taking biotin ( Thorne brand ) , iron , vitamin C , MSM and started taking prenatal also . I tried the matrix hair vitamins and did not like it . I was scared because I just did the PRP 5 days ago and the shedding increased , i can't afford to lose any more . I will keep you updated and give you an honest review before you spend 100s of dollars .

Thank you very much. My testerone levels are always normal as well but I have sigh of high level of testerone. I got my scalp Biopsy and that showed androgeneric alopicia also known as female pattern hair loss and its cause by high level of male harmones. Many times dht level test are fine but you have dht. If your hair lose does not stop I highly recommend a scalp biopsy. Also I was told that for healthy hair re growth your ferritin level should be 80 doc told me to go for 120. I wish you very best. Also eat good amount of proteins they are very important for hair re growth.

My ferritin has always been low , I am aggressively treating because I am so desperate . I will ask for a scalp biopsy , my dermatologist is not very helpful . Are you still losing hair ? I am losing between 140 a Day And that is from brushing my hair after I take a shower . I am so distraught . Thank you

Dermatologist are never really helpful I have been to so many all ready with some help you need to do your on search then go find a a doctor who specialize in treating hair loss and also a dermatologist. I am will tell you this I am 26 now started losing my hair Beautiful hair extremely tick to now you can see my scalp. I would have found out at in my early hair loss I would be able to save them by taking dht Blokers. I have been taking spprionalactone for 2 mouths now and do see some difference in amount of lose the reason I am not seeing much difference because I have fungus infaction on my scalp now for the past 6 months. That also cause hair loss I am not giving up hope. Loosing 140 hair is a lot in my eyes. First your need to get your ferritin level at least to 80 I am not a doctor but for the past 10 years I Study about hair different type of hair loss every book on hair. I can imagine how disturb you are but you have early hair loss and before it gets worse you can save and regrowth what you lost. Are thinning hair on specially on top of your scalp and do you get hair growth on your face and unwanted acne on face. And are your periods regular. Do you lose hair in shower as well.

Also did you just do prp or prp with acel?

Hi Sarah ,

I have always had diffused hair loss , I remember the first time I experience it ,I was 12 years old then it stops and it will start again . I am 39 years,my periods are regular so far , and don't have hair on face . However , my estrogen has gone up when I have develop a big cyst on my ovary , the cyst was extracted surgically . I don't know what else to do , I am not able to use rogain . However., this is the longest period that have had hair loss , it usually last 6 months and suddenly stops , this time it has been different . Do you have any side effects by using spprionalactone ? And how did you first notice hair loss ? Was it w massive loss at the beginning or it just began to thin ? I know what you are going through ,I am also trying to do what I can . Thank you so much

I only did the PRP ,I did not want to waste 2500 just in case it did not work . I have read in the badtruthhairloss website that some people had negative experience or no improvement at all .

Yes not everyone benefit from prp. I can't use rogain either it makes my scalp itchy and makes me loose more hairs. with sprionalactone side effects that I notice is breast tender light pain, I get dizzy getting up if I don't take enough salt my doc said to increase salt intake with sprio I don't get dizzy because I have increase my salt intake and I had and inregular periods with sprio now they are back to normal I think it needed my body to get use to also I drink 8 to 10 glasses of water. I notice my hair lose at age 16 and it was massive about 300 and more per day. But I started taking nuhair at age 20 which helped to stop hair lose and regrow little and started loosing hairs again for the past 15 months with a lose of 150 to 200 a day. I am so sorry about your ovary surgery. You might wanna start taking sprionalactone 50 mg to 2 times a day then increase to 100 mg 2 times a day. If you don't mind me asking what doctor did your prp? As a women hair are our pride you know what I am saying man loses hair people say he looks sexy but for women not the same as you know. I will strongly advise you to find a dermatologist who is specialize in hair lose and talk to him about taking sprionalactone and see if that helps.

I will definitely go to my primary to see a different dermatologist . I also want a scalp biopsy . I went to Metro Md in Hollywood , they had a groupon special . I did not want to go to a specialist because they charge btw 1000 and 2500 per treatment and everyone uses same process , draw blood and inject it , so my rationality was that it would not matter , I hope I was right . I am also juicing in the morning , I read parsley , cucumber and celery is very good for hair loss . Were you losing 150 everyday even on non wash days ? I have been going through this for 9 months and I cried when I comb my hair . Thanks for your support

Yes everyday I washed my hair I was losing 150 I wash my hair everyday with very mild shampoo also I lost hair every time I would even touch my scalp like going trought with figers hairs would come in my hands. Presley cucumber, celery are very good for hair also start eating blueberrys 1 cup a day they are very high in antioxidants. I cried everyday too and got so sad that I stopped going out it even cause problems in my relationship. Also try eating at least 90 or more grams of proteins a day hairs are mostly made of protein. If you have any question ask me I would try to help you I know how it feels to lose hair sadly I never met a women who cares about my problem it's sad because as a women we should support each other in hair loss problems. Take very good care of your self also try working out that helps with stress and that can also cause hair lose.

It does help to have a support system . No one understand till you go through it , especially for a female . How long ( months ) have you been losing 150 a day ? Also why do you wash your hair every day ? I wash every 3 days , I can't take the trauma of seeing so much hair on brush . I feel so sad and mad . It is a mixtures of emotions . I also blend blueberries with oatmeal every evening . What do you eat for protein ? Thanks so much .

I have to wash my hair every day I have darmatities so if I don't wash it every day it gets worse meaning more hair loss then. On top of hair loss the last thing I needed was this I got about 9 months ago. Sounds like you eat healthy. And for proteins I take rainbow right rice protein in my smoothie in the morning, and I take lentils, chickpeas, organic turkey and seafood. I also try avoid eating bread, pasta I eat brown rice pasta. My doc told me and he is hair transplant and hair loss specialist that people with thinning hair should wash hair every day. Also I notice more hair lose when I don't take iron and protein.

I also get soreness on scalp once in awhile . I use ketaconozale shampoo 2% and it helps . I just don't like it because it is drying to hair . When did you start noticing that you could see your scalp ? I guess what I am trying to find out if I lose 150 every day , when will my scalp be noticeable ? This is all I think about . Thanks so much

My last hair loss started 14 months ago and I started see my scalp about after 4 to 5 months. But you might never see your scalp if you get to treat now you have early hair loss. Also ketaconozale shampoo makes you lose more hairs in some people but you can use two times a week and other mild shampoo like seba meds anti dandruff shampoo it has a ph of 5.5 you can use every day and it's made in Germany you can get it from Amazon I do think that might help also get a wood comb not a plastic comb.

Sorry to ask so many questions ... How many hairs were losing daily before you started noticing your scalp ? I remember you saying that you were losing 300 hairs daily at one point . Thanks for recommending the shampoo , the name is seba meds ? Thanks again

Yes I was losing 300 years a day when my hair loss started at age 16 and my hair stopped at age 20 but because I had soo much hair before so that's why I did not go bald now my hair loss stated after 5 years and this time I stared losing 150 hair a day the reason I can see my scalp is that I did not have thick hairs like I did when I was 16 and my hair loss started. This time I could not lose more hair but I did and can see my scalp now. And you can ask me question. I can give you my email if you would like.

Yes I have tried laser as well I am going to email you the rest of my answer.

Any update from prp? Thanks
