Recent advancements in assisted reproductive technology (ART) have enabled couples to achieve pregnancy, who were previously unable to conceive. However, recurrent implantation failure (RIF) remains a significant challenge. This case study exhibits the effective use of hysteroscopic-guided platelet-rich plasma (PRP) instillation in the treatment of a female patient aged 33 who was nulliparous and diagnosed with RIF and a thin endometrium, which resulted in primary infertility. The couple had a history of 10 years of infertility and had previously undergone ART procedures, including intrauterine insemination (IUI) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), which failed. The female partner was diagnosed with a thin endometrium (<7 mm) and underwent hysteroscopy, revealing no other significant intrauterine pathologies. Following hormonal treatment and ovum pick-up, hysteroscopic PRP was administered, resulting in improved endometrial thickness (ET) and successful embryo implantation, as evidenced by a positive serum β-hCG level of 1470 mIU/mL. This case demonstrates the hysteroscopic injection of PRP's potential for increasing endometrial receptivity and enhancing ART outcomes in women with RIF due to thin endometrium, making it a promising alternative to conventional therapies.
