Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Evaluation of reactogenicity (absence of fever, nausea, bleeding, pain and allergic reaction symptoms) of allogeneic exosome injection obtained from stem cells derived from menstrual blood. Timepoint: Within two hours, two weeks, 3 months and 6 months after exosome injection. Method of measurement: Clinical assessment.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame

Timepoint: Before intervention, 3 months and 6 months after exosome administration. Method of measurement: Vaginal sonography.;Anti-Mullerian hormone, Estradiol, and FSH levels in blood serum. Timepoint: Before the intervention, 3 months, and 6 months after cell administration. Method of measurement: Biochemical assay.;Number and quality of oocytes in intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection cycle. Timepoint: First intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection cycle after intervention. Method of measurement: Embryologic evaluation.;Implantation rate. Timepoint: In new intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection cycle after intervention. Method of measurement: Vaginal sonography.;Clinical pregnancy. Timepoint: 6-8 weeks after last menstrual period. Method of measurement: Vaginal sonography.
