      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: A random series of 30 individuals were produced for eligible patients. In each sequence, the intervention group with autologous exosome and the control group would be considered by a 1:1 ratio; thus, 15 patients will be allocated to each group. Random Sequence will be provided using Sealed Envelope web site with block size of 4.</study_design>
      <phase>1-2</phase>
      <hc_freetext>Diminished ovarian reserve.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: 5 mililiter of menstrual blood sample will be collected from patients with menstrual cup. Mesenchymal cells will be isolated and cultured from a menstrual blood sample. After culturing menstrual blood-derived mesenchymal cells, in the fifth passages, the cells will be identified by Flow cytometry.Then exosomes will be isolated from the culture medium by Chromatography. Intra-ovarian injection of autologous exosomes will be performed in the intervention group. On the day of injection (follicular phase of menstrual cycle until day 14) 2 mililiter (ml) of autologous exosome with 1 percent phosphate buffered saline(PBS) with a total protein of 20 micrograms per microliter will be injected into the ovary with a puncture needle from the cortex to the medulla in several areas under ultrasound guide. Intervention 2: Control group: For patients in the control group, the in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle with antagonist will be performed, then after 1 to 3 months, the freeze embryo will be transferred. From day 1 to 3 cycles, vaginal ultrasound will be performed. FSH recombinant ampoule (2-4 pieces) will be prescribed. Then ultrasound is performed every other day and depending on the number and size of the follicle, Human Menopausal Gonadotropins (HMG) will be added or subtracted to the drugs.If a follicle above 12 millimeter (mm) is observed, the antagonist is started and will be prescribed daily. Whenever 17-18 millimeter (mm) follicle is observed, Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) is injected and an ovarian puncture will be performed 34-48 hours later, and the ovums will be delivered to a laboratory for in vitro fertilization. 1 to 3 months later, 1 to 3 grade A or B embryos will be transferred to the patient during the hormonal cycle.</i_freetext>
