Platelet-Rich Plasma with Microneedling in PCOD-Associated Alopecia: A Case Report

A case report on a 26-year-old female with PCOD-associated alopecia (Ludwig Grade III) demonstrated that treatment with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) combined with microneedling significantly reduced hair shedding and improved hair density. The patient underwent four sessions of PRP with microneedling at two-week intervals, alongside a vitamin-rich diet. Evaluations using global photography, trichoscan analysis, and a 60-second hair count test showed increased terminal hair growth and follicular density, with no adverse effects reported. This suggests that PRP with microneedling is a safe and effective treatment for advanced alopecia linked to PCOD.
