There's a good news for women who are craving for motherhood.

According to British doctors, twice-weekly shots of hormone kisspeptin refurbishes a chemical imbalance in the female reproductive system.

Researchers at Imperial College London found that the shots augmented vital hormone production levels 16-fold.

Their findings have been supported by the British Fertility Society.

Study Leader Dr. Waljit Dhillo remarked that infertility is a highly stressful condition and affects up to one in seven couples in the UK.

He confirmed, "The results are exciting as they show kisspeptin may be a novel method for restoring fertility to women with certain types of infertility".

However, Dr. Dhillo added that further probing is needed before the findings are put into clinical practice.

Women suffering from infertility will have a reason to rejoice when investigation on kisspeptin will be completed and its injections will storm the markets.
