What is PRP Endometrium?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)is used to treat specific gynaecological diseases such as infertility. It is used to enrich the endometrium, which is the inner lining of the uterus , endometrial is a medical technique that uses platelet-rich plasma.
Your blood contains a substance called platelet-rich plasma, which has a higher concentration of platelets, growth factors, and other bioactive proteins. These chemicals are believed to have healing and regeneration abilities.
Successful implantation requires a functional embryo, a receptive endometrium, and a coordinated interaction between the blastocyst and the endometrium. Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) have helped increase conception rates, yet implantation failure has remained a chronic problem.
PRP endometrium may be used to treat conditions such as:
1. Thin endometrium:
Infertility may be impacted by the endometrial lining's inadequate thickness. The goal of PRP therapy is to encourage endometrial development and thickness, which will improve the environment for fertilized egg implantation.
2. Asherman's syndrome:
In this disorder, the uterine cavity develops adhesions or scar tissue, frequently as a result of prior surgeries or infections. The endometrial tissue can repair and regenerate with the help of PRP therapy.
How is procedure done?
A small sample of the patient's blood is often drawn, processed to concentrate the platelets, growth factors, and other therapeutic components, and then the PRP is injected or applied directly to the uterine lining. It is thought that the growth factors in PRP promote tissue regeneration and repair.
How is PRP Endometrium performed?
The procedure is often carried out in a medical setting, such as a fertility clinic,
Before undergoing PRP Endometrium treatment, it is crucial for patients to:
