Does platelet-rich plasma therapy help embryos to implant after IVF?
If you have been doing some research on IVF with own eggs treatment, you may have come across PRP treatment – platelet-rich plasma therapy. It is said that local injection of PRP promotes embryo implantation through its increased level of growth factors.
Answer from:
Gynaecologist, Reproductive Gynecologist Clinica Tambre
Yes, PRP can help the implantation, especially in women with a thin endometrium. Some women have difficulties growing the endometrium for embryo transfer. This can be because of damage, for example, because of a surgery or infection. In these women, PRP can help to have a thicker and three-lining endometrium, so they will have a higher success rate of embryo implantation.
