Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a therapeutic approach that is gaining attention for its potential in the treatment of poor ovarian response. This meta-analysis aimed to systematically review and analyze clinical studies to evaluate the impact of PRP on poor responders undergoing ovarian stimulation for IVF. METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted in electronic databases, including PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library to identify relevant studies published in English. The pooled data, such as pregnancy outcome, number of MII oocytes, number of transferable embryos, and ovarian reserve markers were analyzed using R version 4.2.3. RESULTS A total of 10 trials were enrolled in the present meta-analysis. Following PRP treatment, live birth rate was found to be 16.6% (95% CI 8.8%-26.1%), while clinical pregnancy rate was observed to be 25.4% (95% CI 13.1%-39.9%). PRP pretreatment resulted in a higher number of MII oocytes (MD 1.073, 95% CI 0.720 to 1.427), a higher number of embryos (MD 0.946, 95% CI 0.569 to 1.323), a higher antral follicle count (MD 1.117; 95% CI 0.689 to 1.544), and the change of hormone levels. CONCLUSIONS Among the studies evaluated in this review, PRP showed promising results in poor responder. Further research is required to clarify the potential role of PRP in female reproductive health.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The incidence of infertility caused by diminished ovarian reserve has become a significant problem worldwide. The beneficial effect of PRP treatment of the ovaries has already been described, but the high-level evidence of its effectiveness has not yet been proven. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic search was performed in five databases, until March 12th, 2024. Both randomized and non-randomized studies that compared PRP treatment of the ovaries to self-control among women with diminished ovarian reserve were eligible for inclusion. Hormonal levels (Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), Luteinizing hormone (LH), Estradiol (E2), In-vitro fertilization parameters (Antral follicle count, oocyte, and embryo count), biochemical and spontaneous pregnancy and livebirth were measured. RESULTS 38 eligible studies were identified reporting on 2256 women. The level of AMH rised, the level of FSH decreased significantly after the PRP treatment. AMH 1 month MD 0.20 (n = 856, p > 0.001, 95% CI: [0.12;0.28]), 2 months MD 0.26 (n = 910, p = 0.013, 95% CI: [0.07;0.44]), 3 months MD 0.36 (n = 881, p = 0.002,95% CI: [0.20;0.52]). FSH 1 month MD -10.20 (n = 796, p > 0.039, 95% CI: [-19.80;-0.61]), 2 months MD -7.02 (n = 910, p = 0.017, 95% CI: [-12.48; -1.57]), 3 months MD -8.87 (n = 809, p = 0.010, 95% CI: [-14.19; -3.55]). The antral follicle count elevated significantly MD 1.60 (n = 1418, p = < 0.001, 95% CI: [0.92; 2.27]). Significant improvement was observed in the number of retrieved oocytes MD 0.81 (n = 802, p = 0.002, 95% CI: [0.36; 1.26]), and embryos created MD 0.91 (n = 616, p = 0.001, 95% CI: [0.45;1.36]). The incidence of spontaneous pregnancy following PRP treatment showed a rate with a proportion of 0.07 (n = 1370, 95% CI: 0.04-0.12), the rate of biochemical pregnancy was 0.18 (n = 1800, 95% CI: 0.15-0.22), livebirth was 0.11 (n = 1482, 95% CI: 0.07-0.15). CONCLUSIONS Our meta-analysis showed that based on protocolized analysis of the widest scientific literature search to date, containing predominantly observational studies, PRP treatment resulted in a statistically significant improvement in the main fertility parameters of diminished ovarian reserve women. Further multicenter, randomized trials, with large patient numbers and a longer follow-up period are needed to certify our results and develop the most effective treatment protocol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor ovarian response (POR) patients often encounter cycle cancellation and egg retrieval obstacles in assisted reproductive technology. Platelet rich plasma (PRP) ovarian injection is a potential treatment method, but the treatment methods are different, and the treatment results are controversial. OBJECTIVE This study adopts a systematic review and meta-analysis method based on clinical research to explore the efficacy and safety of PRP injection on POR. METHOD The following databases were searched for research published before March 2023; Medline (via PubMed), Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Embase, Cochrane Library, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database (CNKI). The literature was then screened by two independent researchers, who extracted the data and evaluated its quality. Research was selected according to the inclusion criteria, and its quality was evaluated according to the NOS standard Cohort study. The bias risk of the included study was assessed with STATE 14.0. RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis. MAIN RESULTS Ten studies were included in the analysis, including 7 prospective cohort studies and 3 retrospective studies involving 836 patients. The results showed that after PRP treatment, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) significantly decreased and anti-Mueller hormone (AMH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) significantly increased in POR patients, but estradiol did not change significantly; The number of antral follicles increased, and the number of obtaining eggs and mature oocytes significantly increased; The number of Metaphase type II oocytes, 2PN and high-quality embryos, and cleavage stage embryos significantly increased. In addition, the patient cycle cancellation rates significantly decreased. The rate of natural pregnancy assisted reproductive pregnancy and live birth increased significantly. Four reports made it clear that no adverse reactions were observed. CONCLUSION PRP may have the potential to improve pre-assisted reproductive indicators in POR patients, increase the success rate of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in POR patients, and improve embryo quality, and may be beneficial to the pregnancy outcome. There is no obvious potential risk in this study, but further clinical support is still needed.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effects of ovarian injection of autologous platelet rich plasma (aPRP) on patients with poor ovarian responder (POR) based on the existing clinical evidence. Methods According to systematic review and meta-analysis, we comprehensively searched nine databases established as of September 6, 2023, and evaluated the impact of ovarian PRP infusion on poor ovarian responder. The research results include serum follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH) and anti-Mullerian hormone(AMH) levels, antral Follicle Count(AFC), oocyte number, and embryo number. The Newcastle Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to evaluate the quality of inclusion in trials. Results Add up to 10 studies consisting of 793 participants were included in the meta-analysis. A review of existing evidence showed that intraovarian injection of PRP has significant therapeutic effects in increasing levels of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) (SMD=0.44,95% CI [0.07,0.81], p=0.02), antral follicle count (AFC) (MD=1.15,95% CI [0.4,1.90], p=0.003), oocyte count (MD=0.91, 95% CI [0.40, 1.41], p=0.0004), and embryo number (MD=0.78, 95% CI [0.5,1.07], p<0.0001). We compared the relevant data of patients before and after treatment after 2 months of intervention. It can be seen that ovarian injection of PRP treatment for 2 months has better effects in reducing FSH levels, increasing AMH levels, increasing antral follicle count, and increasing the number of oocytes and embryos (p<0.05). When the dose of PRP injected into each ovary was ≥ 4ml, there was also a significant correlation (p<0.05) with improving the number of AFC, oocytes and embryos. Significant heterogeneity existed among the studies. Conclusion The pooled results suggest that intra-ovarian injection of PRP can promote ovarian regeneration and improve the reproductive outcomes of patients with ovarian dysfunction. This therapy may have significant clinical potential in improving sex hormone levels, increasing AFC, oocyte count, and embryo count. However, this findings still requires more rigorous and extensive trials worldwide to determine the value of intra-ovarian injection of PRP in POR patients.

Abstract
The ovary has a comparatively short functional lifespan compared with other organs, and genetic and pathological injuries can further shorten its functional life. Thus, preserving ovarian function should be considered in the context of women with threats to ovarian reserve, such as ageing, premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) and diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). Indeed, one-third of women with POI retain resting follicles that can be reactivated to produce competent oocytes, as proved by the in-vitro activation of dormant follicles. This paper discusses mechanisms and clinical data relating to new therapeutic strategies using ovarian fragmentation, stem cells or platelet-rich plasma to regain ovarian function in women of older age (>38 years) or with POI or DOR. Follicle reactivation techniques show promising experimental outcomes and have been successful in some cases, when POI is established or DOR diagnosed; however, there is scarce clinical evidence to warrant their widespread clinical use. Beyond these contexts, also discussed is how new insights into the biological mechanisms governing follicular dynamics and oocyte competence may play a role in reversing ovarian damage, as no technique modifies oocyte quality. Additional studies should focus on increasing follicle number and quality. Finally, there is a small but important subgroup of women lacking residual follicles and requiring oocyte generation from stem cells.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Female ovarian reserve progressively declines with increasing age. Intraovarian injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) seems to be an alternative treatment to increase fertility in women. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of intra-ovarian infusion of PRP in treating women with poor ovarian reserve. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this before-and-after study, 22 infertile women with a poor ovarian reserve who underwent in vitro fertilization with the GnRH antagonist protocol were enrolled. After the oocyte retrieval undergoing vaginal ultrasound guide, PRP was injected into the ovary with a puncture needle under general anesthesia. Finally, the levels of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and antral follicle counts (AFCs) were compared in all participants before and three months after the PRP injection. RESULTS Our findings showed that AMH significantly increased after the intra-ovarian infusion of PRP (P < 0.001) in these women, while no significant changes were observed in AFC (P = 0.140) at the end of the study. In addition, logistic regression indicated that body mass index (BMI) and maternal age had no significant effect on ovarian response to PRP injection. However, the duration of infertility > 5 years was associated with a 20-fold increase in the probability of AFC < 7 in women with poor ovarian reserve. CONCLUSIONS PRP can increase the chance of fertility in women with poor ovarian reserve by significantly increasing AMH levels.

Abstract
Introduction: Infertility is the most critical factor disrupting the marital relationship, which imposes high financial and psychological costs on couples. Despite vast advances, the problem of infertility has not yet been entirely resolved. The new method of injecting platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been promising for couples. This study investigated the effect of PRP injection on the fertility of infertile women.
Material and Method: In this study, 40 women with a history of infertility with a mean age of 37.75 were included in the study. Prior to the demographic information intervention, laboratory findings, including serum anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) levels and ultrasound for the number of antral follicles count (AFC) were performed. Autologous PRP was then prepared for each patient, and an intraovarian injection was performed. Two months after injection, serum levels of AMH and AFC levels were re-evaluated.
Results: The mean AMH levels before and after the injection were 0.07±0.05 and 0.13±0.06, respectively (p

Abstract
The aim of the current study was to characterize ovarian reserve parameters and IVF outcomes in women with a history of poor ovarian response (POR) treated with intraovarian injection of autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP). Reproductive age women (N=510; age range 30-45yo) diagnosed with POR based on Poseidon criteria were included in the study. PRP treatment resulted in higher AFC, higher serum AMH, lower serum FSH, and a higher number of mature oocytes and cleavage and blastocyst stage embryos. After PRP injection, 22 women (4.3%) conceived spontaneously, 14 (2.7%) were lost to follow up, and 474 (92.9%) attempted IVF. Among women who attempted IVF, 312 (65.8%) generated embryos and underwent embryo transfer, 83 (17.5%) achieved a pregnancy, and 54 (11.4%) achieved sustained implantation/live birth (SI/LB). In total, of the 510 women with POR and mean age of 40.3, PRP resulted in improvement of ovarian reserve parameters, a pregnancy rate of 20.5% and SI/LB rate of 12.9%. Our findings suggest that PRP treatment may be considered in women with POR. For wider clinical application, its clinical efficacy will need to be demonstrated in prospective randomized clinical trials.
