Can a blood injection boost fertility? new trial tests PRP for poor ovarian response
NCT ID NCT07282314
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether injecting a woman's own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) into her ovaries can help improve egg production and IVF success. It includes 142 women with poor ovarian response or premature ovarian insufficiency. The treatment is given via ultrasound-guided injections over 1-3 cycles, and researchers will measure changes in egg count and hormone levels.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could offer a new way to improve egg production and pregnancy chances for women with poor ovarian response.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage trial with only 142 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The treatment may not improve fertility or could cause side effects like infection or pain.
