Abstract:
Preserving ovarian function is important to women's reproductive health. It is necessary for fertility and maintaining the overall hormonal balance. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous plasma containing a predominately platelet concentrate prepared from fresh blood. It has been observed that PRP injections into the ovary can renew the functional cells of the cortical layer of the ovary follicles and reactivate the production of sex hormones. It may improve a woman's fertility in the case of premature ovarian failure, the condition after chemotherapy treatment, or during the climacteric period. The main markers to evaluate the procedure's success are elevated anti-Müllerin hormone and enlarged count level of atrial follicles in ovaries. The aim of this review is to identify the ovarian PRP procedure success markers and point out the electrochemical sensor techniques. Literature was selected depending on including and excluding criteria; studies were sorted by topics in two blocks: PRP biomarkers and electrochemistry. As PRP acts as a regenerative care, electrochemical biosensors can provide accurate, real-time data to evaluate the biological response to PRP therapy. The biosensors' ability to monitor hormonal levels and follicle development serves as objective markers of the effectiveness of PRP in restoring ovarian function. Together, these approaches enable a more precise evaluation of ovarian health and fertility outcomes after PRP intervention.
