My son was benefitted and now I recommend

My five-year-old son Abraham was suffering from optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH), has now no problem in watching television or reading printed books, thanks to menstrual blood stem cells therapy.

Optic nerve hypoplasia, a medical disorder that causes underdevelopment of the optic nerve, had left Abraham legally blind. The optic nerve, which transmits optic signals from the retina to the brain, normally features around 1.2 million nerve fibers. But, in my son’s case, the number of nerve fibers was noticeably fewer, which was responsible for the problem.

A ray of hope emerged when I listened about the new stem cells technology. Stem cells are capability of repairing and renewing the building blocks of the body. Stem cells can be extracted from multiple sources such as a developing embryo, bone marrow and menstrual blood. While use of embryonic stem cells has triggered ethical debate, menstrual blood is easily-available and uncontroversial source of abundant stem cells.

Abraham received six infusions of medication containing stem cells, three through injections into his spinal fluids and three intravenously. In between, he also received physical therapy. Stem cells injected into the body moved to the problematic area and programmed them selves to accomplish the task what the body was missing.

Following the treatment, Abraham showed instant improvement. He can now see and read like any other normal child of his age.

Vital menstrual blood can be isolated, processed and preserved to be used to cure a broad range of medical disorders and diseases like that of spinal cord injury, stroke, burns, inherited metabolic disorders, Alzheimer’s, acute leukemia, osteoporosis, refractory anemia, rheumatoid arthritis, heart disease and diabetes. Researchers are still hard at work with a hope that one day stem cells would provide cure even for currently incurable cancers.

Patient or the first-degree relative female, such as mother of the patient, is directed to store menstrual blood, which has so far been discarded as biological, unhygienic waste. The processed and preserved menstrual blood stem cells also have the potential to generate transplantable tissues and organs in the human body. The still progressing technology could prove very useful to replace below par or damaged tissue and organs. Nowadays, donated tissues or organs are used to transplant into patients’ body, but that does not solve the purpose as the demand always outstrips supply.

Some researches have proved that to preserve menstrual blood not only benefits the donor and her first-degree relative, but also second-degree relative, such as niece and nephew.

As my son Abraham is now living a normal life, owing to the stem cells technology, I recommend the therapy to all who are also suffering the same problem.
