Immunotherapy (Lymphocyte Immunization Therapy - LIT)

Treatment for Repeated Miscarriages and IVF Failure

Hello, I am Dr. Mohan Raut, practicing Gynecologist for last 20 years and partner of CPRM, India's first Immuno therapy center for treatment of patients with repeated miscarriages and IVF failure or implantation failure. Today I'm gonna discuss a unique treatment called Immuno therapy, that is, Lymphocyte Immunization Therapy which is a form of active immune therapy for patients who have repeated miscarriages or repeated IVF failure.

LIT or Lymphocyte Immunization Therapy uses the patient's husband's white cells called lymphocytes for the treatment. In this, once the LI immune factor is confirmed, we separate certain type of white blood cells called lymphocytes from husband's blood and they are injected into the wife by sub-cutaneous intravenous route. Once this injection is given then the couple is asked to wait for a period of four weeks and after that, they should make active attempts at pregnancy and over the next one year, she should conceive. This is a very safe procedure as it has no long term side effects and it is quite effective.

We have been doing this treatment for more than 20 years and it has helped more than 500 couples whom we have given this treatment. Apart from LIT, there are other forms of therapy which can be given and these are the use of intravenous immunoglobulins, use of Intra liquids, use of medicines like steroids and certain injections like low molecular weight restaurant. So, with this therapy, it has been possible to overcome the problem of repeated miscarriages especially when all other factors are normal because the reason is LI immune problem.
