Autotransplantation of the ovarian cortex after in-vitro activation for infertility treatment: a shortened procedure.

Study Question: Is it possible to establish a new in-vitro activation (IVA) protocol for infertility treatment?

Summary Answer: A new IVA procedure is an efficient and easily performed approach for infertility treatment of patients with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR).

What Is Known Already: IVA of primordial follicles with or without stimulators has been developed to treat patients with primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) successfully. However, the efficiency of the procedure is still very low.
