How long have you been on warfarin as there may be other factors which are contributing to hair loss? What is a prp treatment, topical or invasive?

There are now alternative anticoagulants to warfarin which may not have the same side effects, I would suggest speaking with your prescriber to check out whether hair loss is due to warfarin or any other underlying conditions.
