Efficacy of intra-ovarian injection of autologous platelet-rich plasma in women with poor responders: a systematic review and meta-analysis
ConclusionIntra-ovarian injection of PRP improved ovarian reserve markers with increasing AFC, serum level of AMH and day 3 E2 and decreasing serum level of day 3 FSH. In addition, this treatment improved ART outcomes through the increasing of number total oocytes, number of MII oocytes, number of cleavage-stage embryos and number of day 5 embryos in POR women.ImplicationsAlthough treatment of POR women remains challenging, the use of intra-ovarian injection of autologous PRP in POR patients prior to IVF/ICSI cycles is a sign of new hope for increasing the success of IVF/ICSI. However, further well-organized, randomized co...
