Question

I'm a bit concerned about my hairfall since I've had my first PRP session about ten days ago and noticed it's actually increased. My doctor said to have the next session in about 12 weeks. Should I be worried about the hairfall getting worse, or is this normal? Would love some advice on whether this is okay.
