Ova-PRP: Reawakening Ovarian Potential with Your Body’s Own Healing Power
A new frontier in fertility care
For women facing diminished ovarian reserve, poor response to IVF, or the natural decline that comes with perimenopause and advanced reproductive age, the options have traditionally been limited — and often emotionally difficult. Donor eggs, while effective, are sometimes not the right path for everyone.
Ova-PRP (Ovarian Platelet-Rich Plasma) offers a promising alternative: a regenerative approach that uses your own blood-derived growth factors to potentially reactivate ovarian function, improve egg quality, and give your reproductive system a renewed chance.
What is Ova-PRP?
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a concentrated preparation made from your own blood, rich in platelets, growth factors, and bioactive proteins that the body naturally uses to repair and regenerate tissue.
When introduced directly into the ovaries, PRP is believed to activate dormant follicles and stimulate the stem cells responsible for egg development — essentially “waking up” ovarian tissue that has slowed or stopped functioning.
Emerging clinical reports, including documented live births in women with premature ovarian insufficiency, suggest that the human ovary may be capable of rejuvenation — something once thought impossible.
Who might benefit from Ova-PRP?
Ova-PRP may be considered for women who are:
- Diagnosed with poor ovarian reserve or poor ovarian response
- Experiencing repeated unsuccessful IVF cycles
- Of advanced reproductive age
- In perimenopause or early menopause
- Exploring options before turning to donor eggs or embryo donation
It is particularly meaningful for couples who, for personal, emotional, or religious reasons, wish to pursue pregnancy using their own genetic material.
How the procedure works
The Ova-PRP journey is straightforward and typically completed in a single day.
- Baseline evaluation
Before treatment, we assess your ovarian profile through antral follicle count (AFC) and hormone testing (FSH, LH, E2, AMH). - Blood collection & PRP preparation
Approximately 10-20 mL of your blood is drawn and processed in a specialised centrifuge to concentrate the platelets and activate their growth factors. - Intraovarian injection
Under transvaginal ultrasound guidance — the same gentle technique used in IVF egg retrieval — your fertility specialist injects the PRP directly into each ovary. The procedure takes around 10 minutes and is performed under sedation or general anaesthesia for your comfort. - Recovery
After a short rest of about 15-30 minutes, you’ll be able to return home the same day. - Follow-up assessment
Hormone levels and follicle counts are reviewed in the weeks and months following treatment to monitor your response.
Why Ova-PRP is considered safe
Because Ova-PRP uses your own biological material, it carries none of the risks associated with donor blood products — no allergic reactions, no immune rejection, no risk of transmissible infection.
PRP has a well-established safety record across more than two decades of clinical use in orthopaedics, dermatology, cardiovascular surgery, dentistry, urology, ophthalmology and aesthetic medicine. Its application in reproductive medicine is a natural extension of these proven regenerative principles.
As with any medical procedure, minor risks exist — including bleeding, infection, or discomfort — and these will be discussed thoroughly during your consultation.
What Ova-PRP can — and cannot — promise
We believe in honest, transparent care. Ova-PRP is an emerging treatment, and while published case studies and early research are encouraging, outcomes vary from person to person. There is no guarantee of pregnancy, and the procedure should be considered part of a broader, personalised fertility plan developed with your specialist.
What we can promise is this: a carefully delivered, evidence-informed procedure, performed by experienced fertility specialists, in a centre committed to quality, ethics, and your wellbeing.
A renewed conversation about possibility
For many women, Ova-PRP represents more than a procedure — it represents another door, opened. A chance to explore what your own body may still be capable of, before moving on to other paths.
If you’ve been told your options are limited, we invite you to start a new conversation with our fertility team.
