Brief summary
This trial will study the safety and efficacy of cultured allogeneic adult umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells delivered intravenously for the treatment of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
Detailed description
Stem cell treatment has shown efficacy for PCOS in both human and animal studies. Complete resolution was seen of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in a young woman after a single intravenous injection of umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCDSC). It is hypothesized that intravenous infusion of UCDSC can reduce or eliminate PCOS. Patients will receive roughly 2 million umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells per kg of body weight. Hormone levels and ultrasound will be checked 3,6 and 12 months after treatment.
