We sat down to learn about a novel treatment to help improve egg quality in IVF patients. Dr. Zaher Merhi, MD, FACOG, HCLD is a Reproductive Endocrinologist and Medical Director at Rejuvinating Fertility Center in New York City.
Dr. Merhi walks us through what ovarian rejuvination is, how it works to improve egg quality in women doing IVF, how ovarian rejuvination is done, and how long the effects of the treatment last.
In women that have had poor egg quality in previous IVF cycles, ovarian rejuvination, can improve egg quality and the number of genetically normal embryos someone can get from a subsequent IVF cycle.
If you've heard of PRP injections that people do to improve injuries, this is the same type of treatment except the PRP is injected into the ovaries!
PRP stands for platelet rich plasma. The PRP is actually from your own blood!
Your blood is drawn, processed, and then the PRP is injected into the tissue being treated. In this case, the ovaries.
