The endometrium is an essential tissue in the normal immunologic dialogue between the mother and the conceptus, which is necessary for the proper establishment and maintenance of a successful pregnancy. It's become evident that the maternal immune system plays a key role in the normal pregnancy's initiation, maintenance, and termination. In this perspective, the immune system contributes to regulating all stages of pregnancy, thus immunological dysregulation is thought to be one of the major etiologies of implantation failures. Many researchers believe that immune therapies are useful tactics for improving the live births rate in certain situations. Lymphocyte immunotherapy (LIT) is an active form of immunotherapy that, when used on the relevant subgroups of patients, has been shown in multiple trials to dramatically enhance maternal immunological balance and pregnancy outcome. The primary goal of LIT is to regulate the immune system in order to create a favorable tolerogenic immune milieu and tolerance for embryo implantation. However, there are a plethora of influential factors influencing its therapeutic benefits that merit to be addressed. The objective of our study is to discuss the mechanisms and challenges of allogeneic LIT.
