Androgenic alopecia (AGA) is a type of progressive hairloss, where there is androgen mediated conversion of susceptible terminal hairs into vellus hairs, in genetically predisposed individuals. To compare efficacy of Topical 5% Minoxidil alone versus Topical 5% Minoxidil with Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy in patients with Androgenetic Alopecia.This is aProspective study conducted in Department of Dermatology GMERS Medical College, Gandhinagar, Gujarat. A convenience sample of 62 men in the age group of 20-40 with Grade 2-5 AGA according to Hamilton- Norwood Grading were selected and was divided into 2 groups of 31 each. Presitting digital photographs and dermoscopic photos were taken. Autologous PRP was prepared using 18 ml of patients blood after double spin centrifugation and injected by Nappage technique. Results were assessed at the baseline and at the end of each sitting on the basis of change in hair density, photographic evaluation and patient’s self satisfaction. Highly significant increase in hair density was achieved after 4 months of treatment. At T4 (Fourth Session of treatment) Group B showed higher hair density (42.97± 8.96) as compared to Group A (36.94 ± 11.57) which was statistically significant at P = 0.03Group B showed better improvement as compared to Group A.PRP treatment has a positive therapeutic effect on male Androgenetic alopecia without major side effects.

Objective: To assess the outcome of autologous platelet rich plasma(PRP) for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in male patients. Methods: A total of 61 male patients from Department of Dermatology, Lahore General Hospital Lahore with ages between 18-60 years were included in the study during a period of 6 months. PRP was prepared by double spin method and CaCl2 was used to activate platelets. PRP was injected, with a 30-G needle using Nappage technique. This descriptive case series study was carefully monitored. Protocol included three treatment sessions with an interval of four weeks. Number of hairs, and hair strength was assessed by dermoscopy and hair pull test. SPSS Version-21 was used for data entry and analysis. Results: The mean age of patients was 42.67±8.63 years. Mean number of hair was 21.50±4.57 per dermatoscopic field, Post treatment number of hair was 78.10±16.24. Mean duration of disease was 10.25±3.52 months. Majority of patients were in stage iv 19(31.1%) and in stage ii 16(26.2%). There was significant difference in number of hair before and after treatment. Conclusion: PRP is an effective method to treat the patients with androgen alopecia. Key Words: Autologus platelet rich plasma, Androgen alopecia.
