Mrs. Ümmühan, who doctors called "very difficult to have a child" with the diagnosis of "early ovarian insufficiency", became pregnant with PRP, the method of ovarian rejuvenation. Yeditepe University Kozyatağı Hospital Obstetrics and Gynecology Obstetrics and IVF specialist says that this method will be hopeful for many couples, such as the couple who counted the days to take their baby in their arms.
The patient, who applied to the doctor with the complaint of menstrual incontinence and irregularity, was diagnosed with ‘early ovarian insufficiency’ after the tests. She found Obstetrics and Gynecology Obstetrics and IVF specialist. The patient, who tried the PRP method with the recommendation of the physician, became pregnant without the need for IVF treatment.
''I consult a doctor due to my menstruation irregularity. I learned that some of my values were different from normal in the tests. For example, my FSH hormone value was over 40. My AMH value was around 0.01. I started menstruating on medication. I was told that it was hard for me to have children. I met my doctor during this time. “Some genetic tests were done, and I started antioxidant serum and drug therapy.”
The patient, who was also informed about the PRP method, stated: “My doctor said that there is no 100 percent guaranteed method for pregnancy, but it is useful for me to try. I trusted and tried. The treatment lasted 10 sessions and was quite easy. First, hyperbaric oxygen therapy was applied. Then PRP was injected into her ovaries. It was an intensive treatment, but not stressful.”
Providing information about PRP, Yeditepe University Kozyatağı Hospital Obstetrics and Gynecology Specialist: “We need to rejuvenate the ovaries in women with decreased ovarian reserve, ovarian reserve insufficiency, or premature ovarian aging. Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), which has started to be used in the world as an ovarian rejuvenation method, is now also used in our country. We started to achieve successful results with this method. We use PRP by injecting it into the eggs to awaken the sleeping cells and get better eggs. We support this with hyperbaric oxygen therapy.''
Sometimes at a young age, you may also experience early ovarian insufficiency. As our patients, they can apply to the doctor with the complaint of not having menstruation. In such a case, the chance of conceiving spontaneously is less than 3 percent.
Stating that they had a chance to improve their ovarian reserve relatively well with PRP treatment and other supplements and to correct the hormones, the physician also added: "In the process, we called IVF treatment after 3 months of treatment, the patient got pregnant.''
The decline in ovarian reserve under the age of 40 is called ‘premature ovarian insufficiency’. There is no rule that ovarian reserve will decrease only in advanced ages. Therefore, at younger ages, genetic, autoimmune ovarian surgeries, and for unknown reasons, the reserve may decrease. Those who are younger and have a history of menstrual irregularity or early menopause in the family should definitely pay attention to ovarian reserves.
