Despite the use of assisted reproductive technologies (ART), success rates remain low in this population. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy is emerging as a potential adjunct to enhance ovarian reserve.Case Illustration:Case 1: A 25-year-old nulliparous woman with a history of ectopic pregnancy and an anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level below 1 ng/mL received two PRP injections scheduled between days 7 to 12 of her cycle. After the first injection, her AMH level remained < 0.5 ng/mL. Following the second PRP injection, her AMH level increased to > 0.5 ng/mL. A frozen embryo transfer resulted in a successful term pregnancy and healthy newborn.Case 2: A 36-year-old nulliparous woman, married for seven years, also presented POI and AMH levels < 1 ng/mL followed the same PRP and IVF protocol. After two PRP sessions, her AMH levels improved similarly to Case 1. Despite an initial pregnancy, the patient experienced pregnancy loss.Conclusion: These findings suggest that PRP may improve ovarian response in women with POI undergoing IVF. Further studies are warranted.Keywords: in vitro fertilization, IVF (D005307), infertility (D007246), platelet-rich plasma, PRP (D053657), primary ovarian insufficiency, POI (D016649)
