Platelet Rich Plasma Uterine Infusion

Summary

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), a rich source of important growth factors, has been shown to significantly affect the body's ability to heal and regenerate tissues. It is an affordable, accessible treatment with little risk of side effects that is being utilized in many areas of regenerative and cosmetic medicine. PRP is also relatively easy to prepare with supplies on hand in most IVF clinics. Specifically relating to reproductive function, PRP has been demonstrated to increase cellular proliferation and decrease fibrosis in damaged rat endometrium. It is hypothesized that infusing the uterus with Platelet Rich Plasma at measured intervals prior to embryo transfer will increase concentrations of implantation-promoting cytokines while reducing concentrations of inflammatory cytokines during the window of implantation.
