Dual-double stem cell therapy, which integrates mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), represents a cutting-edge approach in regenerative medicine, particularly for conditions such as ovarian decline, premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), and induced ovarian failure. This therapy leverages the unique properties of MSCs and HSCs, enhancing tissue repair, immune modulation, and overall regenerative outcomes. MSCs, known for their ability to differentiate into various cell types, provide a supportive microenvironment and secrete bioactive molecules that promote angiogenesis and reduce inflammation. HSCs, crucial for hematopoiesis and immune function, further enhance this environment by supporting hematopoietic processes and immune regulation. Clinical evidence increasingly supports the effectiveness of stem cell therapy in ovarian regeneration. Studies have demonstrated improved folliculogenesis, normalization of hormone profiles, and successful pregnancies in patients with POI. Furthermore, recent clinical trials in various medical fields underline the superior potential of dual-double therapy compared to monotherapies involving MSCs or HSCs alone, enhancing tissue repair and functional outcomes. However, despite these benefits, the therapy presents risks that require careful consideration. For autologous MSC therapy involving expanded cell populations, risks include tumorigenic potential, with evidence of sarcoma formation in certain cases of cultured MSCs. In contrast, autologous non-expanded MSC and HSC therapies may be limited by low cell yields, potentially compromising therapeutic efficacy. Additionally, non-expanded HSC therapy poses risks of insufficient cell numbers for successful engraftment and delayed immune reconstitution. These considerations underscore the importance of quality control and rigorous screening to optimize safety and efficacy. This article explores the mechanisms of action, clinical applications, and potential complications of dual-double stem cell therapy, underscoring the need for continued research and optimized protocols to enhance safety and outcomes in ovarian insufficiency and related conditions, offering new hope for affected women.
