What is Ovarian Rejuvenation/Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Therapy?
Simply stated, ovarian rejuvenation is a process in which the ovaries are stimulated to induce follicle growth and produce high-quality eggs for fertilization.
PRP is a concentrated solution of growth factors and cytokines taken from a sample of your own blood. When introduced into the ovaries and uterine cavity, PRP stimulates cellular rejuvenation and blood flow, naturally and effectively enhancing your own fertility.

Ovarian Rejuvenation/PRP at NYC’s New Hope Fertility Clinic
What is the technique?
There are 2 techniques by which you can receive the PRP ovarian treatment at our NYC clinic:
- Ovarian Rejuvenation
- Uterine Infusion
PRP Procedures
Ovarian Rejuvenation
This procedure is performed as an outpatient procedure at our surgical suite in Manhattan. To ensure you do not experience discomfort, you will be provided a pain management option of a local anesthetic or intravenous (IV) anesthesia. If receiving IV anesthesia, a Board-Certified Anesthesiologist will administer the medication during the procedure. The physician performing the procedure will use a transvaginal approach to inject the PRP into the ovaries. The procedure lasts approximately 15-20 minutes. After the procedure, you will be brought to a recovery area where you will be monitored until you recover for discharge, approximately one (1) hour. Upon discharge, it is advised that you have a companion to accompany you home for safety.
Uterine Infusion
This procedure is performed in an exam room as an outpatient treatment. You will be asked to assume the dorsal-lithotomy position and the provider will infuse PRP into the uterine cavity while you remain on the exam table. The procedure takes approximately 15 minutes and there is no post recovery needed.
Will I have Side Effects?
Post-procedure, you will be asked to refrain from inserting anything into the vagina for 24-48 hours.
What happens next?
After your ovarian rejuvenation procedure in NYC, your doctor will advise you to start monitoring your bloodwork and ultrasound once a week.
