description Abstract Background The successful use of PRP in regenerative medicine has led investigators to study its effect in the treatment of conditions like decreased ovarian reserve, poor responders, and premature ovarian insufficiency. Objective To review the uses of intraovarian PRP in reproductive medicine. Methods A literature search for English articles related to the uses of intraovarian PRP in reproductive medicine, including articles published in PubMed, from 2000 to April 2021. Results Seventeen studies: No RCT. Studies were classified according to indication. (1) For diminished ovarian reserve: 6 studies including 369 patients. (2). For poor responders: 3 case series studies including 41 patients with an improvement in ovarian response. (3) For premature ovarian insufficiency: 8 studies including 373 patients. Ovarian reserve markers were the outcome of all studies with conflicting results. LBR was not determined in the majority of studies. Conclusion Intraovarian PRP for diminished ovarian reserve, poor ovarian response, or POI is still experimental. Well-designed, large RCTS to confirm its efficacy and safety are required.
