The prognosis of patients under the age of 40 who undergo PRP can be improved. It is important to note that the aim is to increase the number of eggs because the technique does not increase the quality of the eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Ana Fuentes, head of the Low Ovarian Reserve Unit at the Bernabeu Institute, explains that PRP is a treatment with which the clinic has already had a year and a half’s experience treating patients with a low response. “We indicate it if we think it can improve their prognosis and if there are no contraindications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The doctor warns that up to 20% of the cycles may have a low response, and it is a part of them to whom PRP is administered, not all of them. It is part of the complementary treatments along with other low-response strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The technique “awakens” dormant follicles and makes it possible to obtain eggs that cannot be obtained with conventional ovarian stimulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In patients over 40 years of age, experts do not recommend PRP, warning that it is not advisable. This is because, from the age of 40 onwards, more oocytes are needed to improve the prognosis. It is important to note that in women over 40, the quality of the eggs obtained is not improved because the oocytes correspond to the patient’s age. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the other hand, for a woman of around 35 years of age, the difference between obtaining 2 more oocytes is very important and can change the outcome of the treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fame that PRP has acquired means that some patients want to have this treatment but have no need for activation. “There are patients who want PRP without needing it,” explains Dr. Fuentes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PRP is a treatment that is performed in conjunction with other strategies. It is also being applied in cases of ovarian failure, to see if in these very specific cases it is possible to activate follicles. It is a treatment that has hardly any contraindications and is simple.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
