Lymphocyte Immunization Therapy in Indore: Facts Before You Decide
LIT is promoted for recurrent miscarriage, but evidence does not support routine use. Learn what LIT is, what guidelines say and proven alternatives.
Lymphocyte immunisation therapy (LIT) involves injecting a woman with white blood cells from her partner or a donor, based on the idea that it may change the immune response in pregnancy. It has been promoted for recurrent miscarriage and repeated IVF failure. At Asian Navkar Hospital, Indore, we believe you deserve clear, evidence-based information before considering any treatment, and this page explains what current research says.
What Do Guidelines Say?
International guidance, including the ESHRE guideline on recurrent pregnancy loss, recommends against using LIT for recurrent miscarriage, because good-quality studies have not shown that it increases live births. It also carries potential risks, such as transmission of infections and allergic or immune reactions.
Proven Steps for Recurrent Miscarriage
Before considering any immune therapy, couples should have a full recurrent miscarriage evaluation: antiphospholipid antibodies, thyroid function, uterine assessment, karyotype where indicated and lifestyle review. Treatments with evidence, such as aspirin and heparin for antiphospholipid syndrome or surgery for a uterine septum, are offered when the cause is found.
