Could stem cell exosomes restore fertility? new trial tests hope for early ovarian failure
NCT ID NCT07510139
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-stage study tests whether exosomes from umbilical cord stem cells can help women with premature ovarian insufficiency (early menopause). The treatment aims to improve ovarian function and quality of life. About 60 women aged 20-39 will receive the experimental therapy, and researchers will monitor safety and hormone levels.
