Understanding Ovarian Rejuvenation: All You Need to Know

At Sunrise Fertility and IVF, we are dedicated to advancing fertility care with innovative treatments like ovarian rejuvenation. This procedure offers hope to women experiencing decreased ovarian function due to age or other conditions. Here’s what you need to understand about ovarian rejuvenation, its potential benefits, and how it could impact your fertility journey.

What is Ovarian Rejuvenation?

Ovarian rejuvenation is a cutting-edge treatment aimed at stimulating the ovaries to produce viable eggs. The procedure is intended for women with diminished ovarian reserve, early menopause, or poor egg quality, offering them a chance to conceive using their own eggs.

Causes of Diminished Ovarian Function

Factors that may lead to diminished ovarian function include:

Age: Natural decline in egg quantity and quality as a woman ages.
Premature Ovarian Failure: Early depletion of ovarian reserves before the age of 40.
Genetic Conditions: Such as Turner syndrome or Fragile X syndrome.
Medical Treatments: Effects of chemotherapy or radiation therapy.

How Ovarian Rejuvenation Works

Ovarian rejuvenation works by stimulating the ovaries to activate dormant eggs, potentially increasing fertility through:

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy: Injecting PRP derived from your own blood into the ovaries to potentially stimulate egg development.
Stem Cell Therapy: Using stem cells to regenerate ovarian tissue and function.

Benefits of Ovarian Rejuvenation

While still experimental, ovarian rejuvenation has shown promise in:

Improving Egg Quality: Enhancing the health and viability of eggs.
Increasing Follicle Count: Potentially increasing the number of follicles available for fertilization.
Extending Reproductive Age: Offering older women additional chances to conceive naturally.

🩺 Diagnosis and Assessment

Before considering ovarian rejuvenation, a thorough fertility assessment is conducted, including:

Hormonal Testing: Evaluating levels of FSH, AMH, and estradiol.
Ultrasound Scans: Assessing ovarian volume and antral follicle count.
Consultation: Discussing medical history and previous fertility treatments.

Treatment Process

Ovarian rejuvenation involves:

Pre-Treatment Assessment: Detailed evaluation to determine suitability for the procedure.
Treatment Administration: Administering PRP or stem cells directly into the ovaries through guided imagery.
Post-Treatment Monitoring: Regular follow-up to assess response and plan further fertility treatments if necessary.
