Patients with systemic lupus erythematosus suffer from varying degree of subfertility & some of them have infertility. It is associated with obvious maternal and fetal complications including spontaneous abortion in first trimester. We report a case with IVF pregnancy who conceived successfully in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus. A 32 years old nulliparous woman suffering from infertility since 7 years diagnosed with SLE 5 years back presented for IVF. She underwent frozenthawed embryo transfer after antagonist cycle of ovum pick & received autologous PRP intrauterine instillation. The patient responded well & conceived in 1st attempt of IVF. Now she has continued her pregnancy up to 6 weeks of GA without any complications. This case report indicates that the PRP can be an emerging option for improving endometrial receptivity and good outcome in IVF patients in coming years.
