PRP (platelet rich plasma) injection?

I have a bad knee mostly in the patella. I get PRP injections but it does take time. I also make sure to build up the muscles of the knee to help support it. I also eat Bitter Melon which has shown to help with pain. I have had too many family and friends still suffer with knee pain after a replacement.

Helpful, hopeful info about allowing time for the platlett healing to take place. My issue is also my patella and has been for 40 years, but it's gotten dramatically worse the last 5 years. I don't have access to fresh Bitter Melon. I may give the capsuales a try, although fresh I'm sure is more beneficial.
I've had physical therapy and do leg strenthening exercises daily which don't involve bending my knee.
