Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) in Infertility—Infusion versus Injectable PRP.

(1) Background: During IVF (in vitro fertilization) procedures, endometrial thickness has a significant role in the success of pregnancy outcomes for embryo transfers. Endometrial thickness, a crucial component of endometrial receptivity, is a contentious issue. The regenerative properties of PRP have been shown in recent research to have positive effects on the endometrium. PRP increases the pregnancy rate in IVF patients with thin endometrium and recurrent implantation failure. In order to demonstrate the efficacy of PRP therapies, this work compares the administration of injectable and infusible PRP during endometrial preparation. (2) Methods: This prospective single-arm control study was conducted at an IVF center in Oradea, Romania. This study included 50 patients; 27 were included in the group with Injectable PRP and 23 in the group with Infusible PRP. The outcome was compared between the two groups, with the primary outcome being the endometrial thickness after the PRP infusion or injection and the secondary outcome being the pregnancy rate in both groups. (3) Results: Patients who were treated with Injectable PRP had a higher pregnancy rate. An improvement in the quality of the endometrium, in terms of thickness, was also observed in the patients who were injected with PRP. (4) Conclusions: Compared to PRP infusions inside the uterus, sub-endometrial PRP injections in frozen embryo transfer methods have a greater pregnancy rate. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
