An Exciting Innovation In Fertility.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy has gained attention in recent years as a promising approach to enhance fertility. Originally used in orthopedic and aesthetic medicine, PRP involves injecting a concentration of a patient’s own platelets, which are rich in growth factors, into targeted areas of the body to promote healing and regeneration. In fertility treatment, PRP is primarily used to improve ovarian function and endometrial receptivity, potentially helping women with diminished ovarian reserve or poor endometrial lining achieve pregnancy.

PRP fertility treatment is typically considered for women who have experienced recurrent implantation failure due to thin endometrial lining related to Asherman Syndrome/intrauterine adhesions, or premature ovarian failure. The procedure involves drawing a small amount of the patient’s blood, processing it to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, and then injecting the PRP into the ovaries or uterine lining, depending on the specific condition being treated. The growth factors in the PRP are believed to stimulate cellular repair, promote tissue regeneration, and improve blood flow, which can enhance the environment for embryo implantation or revitalize aging ovaries.

The PRP Process

The process for PRP fertility treatment involves several key steps, which are carefully coordinated to maximize the potential benefits for improving ovarian function or enhancing the uterine lining. Here’s a detailed overview of the process:

Initial Consultation & Evaluation

We will first assess the patient’s medical history, fertility challenges, and previous treatments. Blood tests and ultrasounds may be conducted to evaluate the ovarian reserve, hormone levels, and the condition of the uterine lining.

Blood Collection

A small amount of the patient’s blood is drawn, usually from the arm, similar to a routine blood test. The volume of blood collected typically ranges from 10 to 60 milliliters, depending on the specific protocol used.

PRP Preparation

The drawn blood is placed in a centrifuge, a machine that spins the blood at high speeds to separate its components. This process concentrates the platelets and other growth factors into a layer known as platelet-rich plasma. The PRP layer is carefully extracted from the rest of the blood components.

Injection

For women with diminished ovarian reserve or premature ovarian failure, the PRP may be injected directly into the ovaries. This procedure is usually performed under ultrasound guidance to ensure precise placement. If the treatment is aimed at improving the uterine lining, the PRP is injected into the endometrium, the lining of the uterus. This can be done during a hysteroscopy or a simple catheter-based procedure.

Post-Procedure Monitoring

After the PRP injection, the patient is usually monitored for any immediate reactions, though the procedure is generally well-tolerated. Depending on the treatment goals, follow-up ultrasounds or blood tests may be scheduled to assess the response of the ovaries or the thickness of the endometrial lining.

Following the PRP procedure, patients may proceed with other fertility treatments such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF) or intrauterine insemination (IUI), depending on the treatment plan developed with their fertility specialist.

The effectiveness of PRP treatment may vary, and its impact on fertility outcomes can take weeks to months to fully manifest. Regular follow-ups with the fertility specialist are crucial to track progress and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
