Astaxanthin improves assisted reproductive outcomes in patients with poor ovarian response by alleviating oxidative stress and regulating granulosa cell mitochondrial function

Key Points

• Astaxanthin improves reproductive outcomes by alleviating oxidative stress in granulosa cells, promoting healthier ovarian response.
• Key evidence shows significant improvement in reproductive success rates after astaxanthin supplementation in infertile individuals.
• The analysis used measures of oxidative stress and mitochondrial function in granulosa cells to assess outcomes in assisted reproduction.
• Further investigation may highlight astaxanthin's role in reproductive health, particularly in women with poor ovarian response.
