PRP Therapy

Rejuvenating Ovary & Uterine Lining
Innovative solution for women’s infertility

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood product consisting of a highly concentrated preparation of platelets in a small volume of plasma.
Hundreds of bioactive molecules such as growth factors (platelet-derived growth factor, transforming growth factor-b, vascular endothelial growth factor, epidermal growth factor, and fibroblast growth factor), cytokines, and cell adhesion molecules are stored within platelets’ a granules.
The release of the a granules from activated platelets allows the delivery of these factors at high concentrations to target tissues, resulting in the stimulation of cell proliferation and differentiation, angiogenesis, and chemotaxis as well as modification of the local immune response.
Currently, PRP is used in a variety of clinical settings and emerging data have also shown a benefit in in vitro fertilization transfers for women with a thin endometrium.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous product acquired from whole blood through the laboratory process and treatments represent one of the breakthroughs in medical science over last 15 years bequeathing a pathway for people suffering from several musculoskeletal and infertility issues with a possible relief of their symptoms.

Procedure of Intrauterine Infusion

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is transfer inside the uterine cavity with the help of an ET catheter within 1 hour of PRP preparation. Infusion is done by connecting the syringe containing PRP to the ET catheter. Maximum PRP transfusion administered in a patient is three times.
