PRP of the Ovary
Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy in Mumbai
Innovative platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy to rejuvenate ovarian function and potentially improve egg quality in women with diminished ovarian reserve. Our Mumbai clinic offers this advanced treatment.
Success rates are still being established and vary significantly. Some studies report improved IVF outcomes, but it's not a guaranteed treatment for pregnancy.
The PRP injection procedure is quick (about 30 minutes). The effects on ovarian function may take a few months to assess.
Minimal discomfort; most women can resume normal activities the same day.
Understanding the Treatment
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy is an emerging treatment aimed at improving ovarian function and egg quality in women experiencing diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). At Dr. Vrushni Bhuta's clinic in Powai and Santacruz, we are at the forefront of offering this innovative therapy.
The procedure involves preparing a concentrated solution of growth factors from your own blood and injecting it directly into the ovaries. These growth factors are believed to stimulate the regeneration of ovarian tissue and potentially activate dormant follicles.
While still considered experimental in some regions, PRP therapy shows promising results for some women, offering a new hope for conception when conventional treatments have not been successful.
The Treatment Process
Consultation & Assessment
We assess your ovarian reserve (AMH, FSH, antral follicle count) and discuss your medical history to determine suitability for PRP therapy.
Blood Draw
A small sample of your blood is drawn, similar to a routine blood test.
PRP Preparation
Your blood is processed in our lab using a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets and growth factors, creating the PRP solution.
Ovarian Injection
Under transvaginal ultrasound guidance, the PRP is carefully injected into each ovary. This is a quick outpatient procedure.
Follow-up & IVF Cycle
We monitor your response and plan an IVF cycle subsequently, aiming to retrieve more and potentially better quality eggs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon can I expect results after PRP?
It may take a few months to observe changes in ovarian function. The effects are typically assessed when you undergo a subsequent IVF cycle.
