Ovarian rejuvenation platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a fertility treatment that may address the issues of egg production and ovarian ageing. By injecting platelet-rich plasma growth factors directly into your ovaries to stimulate your stem cells, we may be able to help increase the number or quality of eggs you produce.
Whether you are trying to conceive naturally or through fertility treatments, such as IVF, ovarian rejuvenation therapy is a type of treatment that may assist your journey.
Ovarian rejuvenation treatment may be beneficial for women who are of advanced maternal age, have struggled to conceive, suffered from several miscarriages, have been diagnosed with secondary infertility, are going through early menopause, or have experienced multiple failed IVF cycles.
As women age, so do the quality and quantity of their eggs. If a woman is experiencing low ovarian reserve or premature ovarian failure, the window to conceive without help could easily be missed. Ovarian PRP is an option to potentially help rejuvenate ovarian function, which may improve the ability to produce eggs.
The process is natural, safe, and simple as we use your own blood. Your specialist will advise the best time to have the procedure performed per your menstrual cycle. If undergoing an additional fertility treatment, such as IVF, ovarian rejuvenation PRP is generally performed two to three months prior.
We'll take a blood sample from your arm - the same way we would for a standard blood test.
Your blood will be taken to our onsite lab where it will be put into a centrifuge and spun to separate the plasma from the red blood cells.
Our team will review your blood sample and purify the platelet-rich plasma ready for treatment.
The procedure is minimally invasive and performed under either local or general anaesthetic in theatre. The plasma is injected directly into the ovaries via laparoscopy or transvaginally.
After your ovarian rejuvenation treatment is complete, you’ll need to go home and rest for the day. Most people are able to return to their usual activities the next day.
As with any medical treatment, there are certain risks to consider. However, PRP is a generally safe procedure that uses minimally invasive methods with very low associated risks.
Mild tenderness is normal following the procedure but typically resolves within a few days. Light vaginal bleeding may occur, and the risk of local infection is under 1%.
To support optimal recovery, we recommend taking time to rest after the procedure.
Anyone can struggle with fertility issues, but it doesn’t have to mean that you won’t be able to fulfil your dreams of creating a family. At Create Fertility, our team works to understand the underlying cause of your fertility challenges and discusses this with you in a way you’ll understand. We then work together to develop a personalised treatment plan that works for you.
