Photobiomodulation for Fertility, What the Danish Research Means for Irish Women

What the research shows

The Ohshiro 2012 study followed 701 Japanese women with severe infertility through a course of 830nm laser therapy over 3 to 4 months. The result was a 22.3% pregnancy rate with 79 live births, among women who had been told their options were exhausted.

Danish physiotherapist Anne Marie Jensen developed a clinical protocol combining the GigaLaser with the Mojzisova physiotherapy method. Applied over 3 to 4 months, her documented outcomes in women with pelvic adhesions, inflammatory conditions and poor ovarian response have attracted international clinical attention.

Why 3 to 4 months is the right timeframe

Egg development, from primordial follicle to mature egg ready for ovulation, takes approximately 90 days. The cellular environment during those 90 days directly influences egg quality. A single session cannot meaningfully influence a process that unfolds over three months. A consistent 3 to 4 month programme can.

How the GigaLaser supports fertility specifically

At 12cm penetration depth, it reaches the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, endometrial lining and pelvic vascular structures. Biological effects relevant to fertility include improved mitochondrial function in egg cells, reduced oxidative stress in follicular tissue, improved circulation to the uterine lining, reduced pelvic inflammation and support for hormonal axis regulation.

Using PBM alongside IVF

The GigaLaser is non-hormonal and does not interfere with IVF protocols. Sessions are typically concentrated in the follicular phase and coordinated with whatever fertility treatment you are receiving. Many women begin a GigaLaser programme 3 to 4 months before a planned IVF transfer.
