People also say that propecia and minoxidil made their hair loss worse. New treatments often cause shedding and some people freak out when this happens. I shed both times I had PRP but after a couple of months my hair looked much better than before the treatments.

Ryan, how many treatments are you planning on getting? Is this something you need to keep doing every few months ?

Man just show us the results if you cant then go and tell these fairy tales to your grand daughters!!

I was seriously thinking about PRP treatment and even planning on getting one, but now I'm a bit scared. I've read a couple threads now on different sites by people saying that they were worse off after the treatment.
This really sucks. I was hoping it would be my next defense line against further hair loss.

If you guys think its non sense then you can surely go for this treatment n i will pray it works for you without worsening your hair loss.

See i dont want to scare anyone or ruin this forum, i saw the MANY negative comments by MANY REAL PEOPLE. i ain't telling dr. Greco just wants to make money offering this treatment nor i am against PRP, But i just want is that doctors should exclude the factors like TGB that are harmful for our hair follicles...So that this treatment can really give its benefit to all the hair loss sufferers.

Come on there are many people on this thread reporting prp worsened their hair loss. So my comments make SENSE and may be who knows your just an plant on PRP thread like many plants shouting on TRX2 thread that ya its working its an miracle pill every one should go for it! huh!!

Yeah, you caught me. My whole plan was to open an account here last October and post about all sorts of topics just waiting for the day when I could defend PRP and get my massive pay day from Dr. Greco for doing it.

I simply wish that people in this forum could present a little more factual data and a little less hysteria. The fact that a very small number of men who are already suffering from hair loss showed up in this thread to say they are still losing hair after a PRP treatment does not warrant a hysterical, unsubstantiated freak out printed in ALL CAPS by someone who has not even personally experienced a PRP treatment. I put this in the same category as men who tell the world that propecia will make your dick fall off and cause you to grow man tits when they have never taken the drug. You people are ruining this forum for the adults who would like to have a real conversation about this condition and the ways to treat it.

I wish people would stop spreading unsubstantiated nonsense on these websites. If I didnt know better, these forums would make me think that mpb made people insane. I have had two prp treatments with dr Greco and they have been beneficial to me. They certainly haven't increased the rate of my hair loss.

Hey guys, I hope that you get a chance to read Dr. Greco's post on blogspot as he clearly addresses this question of the things that could be harmful to your hair...I've had nothing but success with PRP and am getting my 4th procedure done in mid July. I do wish the best for losinghope and please keep us updated on your progress...I've heard of rare cases that finasteride shedding is similar to what you are describing but eventually gets better. Hang in there!

Guys Beware when you go for any PRP treatment. IT contains some factors like TGB and some more factors that are responsible for FOLLICLE DEATH!!

PRP CAN EVEN WORSEN YOUR HAIRLOSS IF IT DOES NOT DOES ANY GOOD FOR YOU!! SO gUYS BEWARE!!

[VictimOfDHT]

That sucks, losinghope. I feel your pain. My hair has been falling out like crazy too in the past 4 months for no god damn clear reason and the worst shed is actually in my transplanted area. I am so desperate I was thinking about this PRP treatment but now I don't know. You're not the first person to report accelerated hair loss and negative results after the PRP. At least you only lost $ 1500. My loss was over $20000, money that took me forever to save, and it's all for nothing because I'm losing my transplanted hairs.

I hope things do turn around for you. Just let us know if they do.
