PRP Therapy for Rejuvenation of Ovary

PRP Therapy for Rejuvenation of Ovary

What is Ovarian Rejuvenation?

Platelet-rich plasma is a concentrate of platelet-rich plasma protein acquired from whole blood. It is prepared by a method called double centrifugation method, by this method the concentration of platelet is four to five times the normal value. For the treatment, it is prepared from your own blood (autologous), hence it has no side effects.

PRP Treatment for Ovarian Insufficiency

What is ovarian insufficiency?

For long we have been led to believe that once the eggs in ovaries are exhausted due to any reason then there is no alternative but the egg donation to have babies. The disadvantage is that in egg donation the mother is not the biological mother of the baby. It is for this reason that parents have to think hard and long before taking a decision. In some religions, it is not even permitted.

But in the light of recent researches in stem cell and PRP technology, it seems possible to offer these advanced therapies to menopausal women and females with premature ovarian failure, a chance to have a baby of their own eggs.

PRP Therapy for Rejuvenation of Ovary in Delhi

Benefits:

Adipose-derived stem cells or PRP or both injected directly into the ovary can stimulate the endogenous stem cells (pericytes) in the damaged area to regenerate ovarian tissue-specific cells to regenerate and rejuvenate the ovary.

PRP injected directly into the ovary releases it cytokines and growth factors to heal and revive the local tissues in the ovaries to produce eggs again.  In the case of women with premature ovarian insufficiency and menopause, it gives them the opportunity to have a baby with their own eggs.

PRP Alone Can Restore Ovarian Function:

Human female is born with the fixed number of eggs at the time of birth. From the time of puberty, she constantly loses eggs to produce hormones for development of reproductive organs and initiate cyclicity of uterine and ovarian tissues. She constantly loses eggs to produce hormones to mature and release one egg in each cycle. The number of eggs decreases significantly by the age of 35 years and goes down rapidly by the age of forty. When eggs in the ovaries have decreased menopause sets in. In recent years, scientists have been able to stimulate the stem cell to develop in to any type of cell with growth factors.  PRP injected directly into the ovaries releases growth factors into the ovary; stimulate endogenous stem cells to differentiate in to eggs.

This PRP Therapy for Rejuvenation of Ovary in Delhi has shown positive results in menopausal women by restoration of the menstrual cycle and conception even after menopause with their own eggs.

The Role of Growth Factors in Rejuvenation

Body cells normally release growth factors for multiplication and differentiation of cells. These factors are important for cell renewal, the growth of tissues like muscle, bone, organs and wound healing. The plasma platelets also release several growth factors to repair injured tissues. PRP has been in use for long in treating sports injuries, in surgery for wound healing. The same property has been used for regeneration off eggs in the ovary and endometrium of the uterus in cases of the thin endometrium.

Platelets in the PRP have several growth factors that help ovarian regeneration in cases of premature ovarian failure and menopausal patients.

Following are Some of The Growth Factors:
  • Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF).
  • Transforming growth factor (TGF), platelet factor interleukin (IL).
  • Platelet-derived angiogenesis factor (PDAF).
  • Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF).
  • Insulin-like growth factor IGF and Fibronectin.
Benefits:

Word wide this therapy has been quite successful and helped women with premature ovarian failure, and menopausal women. Normally, these patients have to opt for egg donation, which has the limitation that the baby is not the biological child of the mother. With this procedure new wave of egg production starts, normal menstrual cycles are established and the couple can have their own biological child. Several children have been born following this procedure.

The Procedure:

The procedure is quite simple and is done in two steps:

  1. 10-20 ml of blood is withdrawn by vein puncture and it is processed for separation of PRP by standard procedure of double centrifugation. The platelet count should be 4-5 times the normal count.
  1. The second step is the injection of the PRP into ovaries in a procedure similar to Egg Pick up during IVF under local anesthesia. The whole procedure may take 2-3 hours.
PRP Preparation:
  • For PRP preparation the blood is collected into conical centrifugation tubes and centrifuged at 1200rpm for ten minutes.
  • The blood separates into three layers: The lower part contains RBC’s and the upper layer contains poor platelet plasma.
  • Take the deeper 2/3 layer including the buffy coat.
  • The layer in between is Buffy layer and some plasma needs to be aspirated in to new centrifuge tube.
  • This plasma is recentrifuged at 2000 rpm for 10 min.
  • Make the platelet count and it will be 6-8 times the normal count.
  • The platelet count is adjusted with poor platelet plasma to get a final count nearly 5-6 times the normal count.
Infusion Procedure:
  • Call the patient at the end of the periods, before the follicles begin to grow on the empty stomach Withdraw blood for PRP preparation.
  • Inject PRP in both the ovaries as done for the egg pickup under USG guidance.
  • The patient can go home 1-2 hours.
  • The process is to be repeated every month for three months.
  • If the need be The PRP can be infused in to the uterus for thin endometrial thickening.
