Since the introduction of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in medical practice, various studies have documented that implementing PRP can enhance healing and anti-aging process, employing angiogenesis regeneration due to multiple growth factors cytokines involved. Numerous reports shown promising results with use ovarian treatment, regarding reactivation folliculogenesis. This case series on two women premature failure (POF) aged 40 27 years, respectively, one menopausal woman 46 years....

Intraovarian platelet-rich plasma (PRP) infusion was recently introduced in the context of addressing ovarian insufficiency. Reporting on its effectiveness prior to adopting clinical routine practice is imperative. This study aims provide pilot data regarding PRP application for rejuvenation. Four studies were conducted poor response (POR), premature insufficiency (POI), perimenopause, and menopause, respectively. Each reports thirty patients, 120 participants recruited total. All provided...

This report presents the case of a woman aged 40 who has experienced premature menopause from age 35. Having rejected oocyte donation, she opted for intraovarian injection autologous platelet-rich plasma with aim to rejuvenate ovarian tissue and enable employment her own gametes through in-vitro fertilization. Six weeks following treatment, significant reduction in patient's follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels were noted. A natural fertilization cycle led biochemical pregnancy,...

Poor responders are described as those In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) patients who failing to respond controlled ovarian stimulation protocols. Extensive research has focused on crafting the optimal treatment. However, it appears that each approach fails be established effective or guaranteed towards successful management. Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a novel, highly promising been successfully applied for an array of medical issues. this case series, we present 3 poor responder with common...

Background/Aim: Patients diagnosed with chronic endometritis (CE) may fail to respond standard antibiotic treatment. The driver behind the approach reported here was imperative need for alternative therapeutic solutions. Case Report: This case report presents a woman CE and premature ovarian insufficiency having experienced repeated implantation failures following donated embryo transfers. patient through hysteroscopy, microbiological analysis scanning electron microscopy. Following...

Abstract STUDY QUESTION Are there age-related differences in gene expression during the germinal vesicle (GV) to metaphase II (MII) stage transition euploid human oocytes? SUMMARY ANSWER A decrease mitochondrial-related transcripts from GV MII oocytes was observed, with a much greater reduction advanced age. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Early embryonic development is dependent on maternal accumulated and stored within oocyte oogenesis. Transcriptional activity of oocyte, which dictates its ultimate...

This study examines the relationship between obesity, oxidative stress, and reproductive dysfunction. It focuses on effects of sleeve gastrectomy gene expression hormone profiles in 29 women with severe obesity (BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2). Pre- post-surgical investigations revealed significant differences major expressions hormonal markers. CART reduced significantly from 0.27 ± 4.43 to -3.42 1.14 (p < 0.001), while leptin decreased -1.87 1.75 -0.13 1.55 indicating better metabolic regulation. In...

Early diagnosis and efficient management of Chronic Endometritis (CE) in patients seeking fertility treatment are two components every practitioner wishes to address. With respect endometrial restoration, antibiotic appears perform well. However, regarding the improvement In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) success rates, literature evidence is inconclusive, consensus on optimal has yet be reached. This manuscript uniquely brings first report effective employment intrauterine infusion treat CE...

The present study aims to explore the effectiveness of laparoscopic surgery on women presenting with infertility, unidentified aetiology according standard infertility investigation, and recurrent failed In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) attempts. Identifying correcting possible underlying pathologies by laparoscopy may subsequently enable natural conception in an effort address avoid IVF overuse. One-hundred seven (107) attempts met inclusion criteria. Laparoscopic was performed as endpoint...

The aim of this study is the development a prediction model indicating successful application Oocyte Retrieval performed during Luteal Phase (LuPOR) in poor responders, as defined by retrieval at least one MII oocyte. Recruitment included 1688 responders diagnosed per Bologna Criteria, undergoing natural cycle ICSI between 2012 and 2020. collections were follicular phase luteal similarly. Antral Follicle Count (AFC), Estradiol (E2) levels evaluated on both trigger days prior to Follicular...
