A group of scientists from the Robinson Research Institute, University of Adelaide, South Australia, discovered a way to turn 'bad' or 'broken' eggs in women into good eggs again.

The group found that the inside of the egg has a substance that causes red blood cells to be red (called "hemoglobin" ) and this is the protein or thing inside the egg's blood cells that makes it red.

According to lead researcher Dr. Hannah Brown, normally good eggs will have very high hemoglobin, while broken eggs lose this substance.

The president of the Australian Reproductive Society, Professor Michael Chapman, said the new discovery would open the door to hope for infertile women or those with congenital infertility or unhealthy lifestyles leading to infertility.

This research program has been implemented since 2012 and is still being experimented on in animals.
