A new study in a preclinical model, by investigators from Brigham and Women's Hospital, demonstrates the potential for restoring fertility when the ovaries have stopped working. The researchers found that adult stem cells could restore healthy hormone levels after chemotherapy and lead to natural conception resulting in the birth of live mice. Techniques based on the study could revolutionize fertility options for women with premature ovarian failure. The results are published today in the journal eBioMedicine.
