For most patients, only one Ovarian Rejuvenation is required. If the desired response does not occur or several months have passed since the initial Ovarian Rejuvenation and the patient has not yet responded as desired, consideration can be given to a second Ovarian Rejuvenation.
Because the effect of Ovarian Rejuvenation is on the ovaries and not the entire body, the vast majority of women do not feel any different after the treatment. Effects can be seen on hormone values, the number of follicles seen on ultrasound, and/or the quality of the eggs/embryos formed following Ovarian Rejuvenation.
The procedure is done by experienced specialist and is done very carefully under ultrasound guidance. Both patients and staff are able to directly observe the procedure. We are pleased that in hundreds of cases, there have been no complications.

Individualized Recommendations: Dr. Wood will review your medical history, answer questions, and make personalized recommendations.
Logistics & Pricing: The Ovarian Rejuvenation Specialist will help coordinate logistics, discuss pricing, and guide you through the next steps.
Pre-Treatment & Supplements: After your initial consultation, if you decide to move forward with treatment and pay the initial deposit, you can immediately begin the recommended pre-treatment protocol and supplements.
Scheduling: You can schedule your procedure at the time of your consultation, typically about one month out, allowing enough time for the pre-treatment phase. (some do not need pr-treatment medications, but they still need to wait about a month for procedure, or for period start)

Convenient Lab Locations: We will electronically send in your lab orders to a nearby laboratory that is most convenient for you.
Ongoing Support: Dr. Wood reviews all results, and our clinical team remains in constant communication with you throughout the process.
Arrival: Most OR patients fly in the evening before the procedure. Procedure Day: The next morning, you come to our office for an initial blood draw, then return in the early afternoon for treatment. Departure: Many patients choose to explore San Diego afterward or even fly out the same day.
No you do not because Dr. Wood is highly experienced, no anesthesia is required for the Ovarian Rejuvenation procedure. You may drive yourself, enjoy San Diego or fly home after the treatment is complete. Of course, if you decide you do want anesthesia even though it is not necessary, then you will need someone to drive you.
Remote Follow-Up: All monitoring can be done at a local lab or clinic near your home.
Ongoing Communication: We will provide detailed instructions, send in lab orders, and stay in contact to review your results.
