Benefits of storing stem cells at childbirth
- Stem cells can potentially treat and even cure many diseases, including cancer, diabetes, immune system disorders, and blood disorders.
- Stem cell preservation can provide a “biological insurance plan” in case your baby develops a condition that could be treated with stem cells in the future.
- You may also store stem cells for other family members who may require them.
- Storing stem cells at birth is a simple and non-invasive procedure with no risks or side effects for either mother or child.
- By storing cord blood and/or tissue now, you are potentially giving your child access to cutting-edge treatments when they become available in the future.
- Stem cell storage can be done at most hospitals or birthing centers.
- The stored stem cells can be used for research studies that could potentially lead to new treatments and cures for many diseases.
