Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is a cutting-edge fertility treatment option that utilizes a patient’s blood to promote healing and tissue regeneration. This non-surgical procedure can be used to treat a variety of fertility issues, including endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and poor ovarian reserve.
PRP therapy begins with a simple blood draw from the patient. The blood is then processed to separate the platelets and plasma from the other blood cells. The concentrated platelets and plasma are then re-injected into the patient’s body, typically into the uterus or ovaries.
The platelets and plasma contain growth factors that promote healing and tissue regeneration. These growth factors can help to improve blood flow to the ovaries, stimulate the growth of new blood vessels, and promote the growth of healthy ovarian tissue.
