Can a blood injection reboot ovaries? small trial tests PRP for fertility
NCT ID NCT04381299
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether injecting a woman's own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into the ovary can help restore function in women with premature ovarian insufficiency (early menopause). 35 women under 40 will receive PRP in one ovary and a saline placebo in the other. The main goal is to see if new follicles grow and produce estrogen within 12 weeks. This is an early, small trial, so results are uncertain.
