Low Level Laser Therapy LLLT for Fertility

Backgrounds: Application of low level laser therapy (LLLT) to improve fertility status is a rapidly growing discipline in medicine. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is a form of laser medicine used in physical therapy and veterinary treatment that uses low-level lasers or light-emitting diodes to alter cellular function.Material and Method: To achieve this aim, the related articles from accredited databases such as: PubMed, SID, EMBASE and Google Scholar were investigated. The materials relating to low level laser therapy, Women's Fertility and induction of ovulation were studied. Then, content analysis was carried out and the results were summed up Result: The impact of LLLT on oocytes maturation merits consideration. The studies show that low level laser therapy (LLLT) used on acupuncture points on the neck and over the ovaries appears to enhance mitochondrial activity and ATP production, increase blood flow and helps to reduce oxidative damage and The number of cells progressing through the cycle and mitochondrial membrane potential enhanced significantly. Besides, cyclin B and cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK4) levels are similarly increased.Conclusion: Laser therapy for infertility is a non-invasive and inexpensive method, and more studies are needed in this field.
