Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy Can Help Older Women Get Pregnant

Introducing a new therapy treatment that can help older women get pregnant: Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy. Today’s older women – between 38 and 42 – have more fertility treatment options than ever before. Women who are past their reproductive prime used to be automatically placed on the fast-track to IVF.

Look: Time is of the essence. Before undergoing IVF, older women can now consider Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy. Bottom Line: As a first line measure, both Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy and IVF can avoid repeated failed infertility treatment cycles.

Older Women and Egg Follicles

All older women – even menopausal women – have egg follicles in their ovaries. These eggs are dormant and don’t grow because their environment for development is not optimal. This occurs when a woman’s rigid ovarian wall pushes on follicles and keeps them dormant. When a woman is unable to ovulated, Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy can coax her ovaries into producing viable eggs for fertilization. At New Hope Fertility Center, fertility specialist – Dr. Zaher Merhi – has achieved phenomenal pregnancy success using Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy.

Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy may be recommended when:

• A woman’s egg follicles cannot be seen on an ultrasound; or
• A woman’s body is not responding to fertility medications administered during IVF

At New Hope Fertility Center, Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy is performed in a non-invasive manner compared to other techniques currently being used by other clinics.

Here, Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy is similar to an IVF egg retrieval procedure and is performed in office:

• A woman’s ovaries are punctured multiple times transvaginally
• Pressure on egg follicles is relieved from the rigid ovarian wall
• Dormant eggs are revived and freed from follicles

Candidates for Ovarian Rejuvenation Therapy

• Menopausal women
• Peri-menopausal women
• Women who have a low egg reserve and low Anti Mullerian (AMH) hormone levels
• Women suffering from Premature Ovarian Failure (POF)
