Regenerative medicine is a developing science whereby body parts that have been damaged or lost through aging, illness or injury may be restored using stem cells. This is not a currently approved practice, although there is much research and promise for improvement and even cures.
These articles are provided in an effort to give you the latest scientific data as to the current and future potential of stem cells from varying sources including cord blood. The decision regarding storage of your baby's cord blood is an important one, and your ability to do so is lost following the birth of your baby. |

Like all expecting
parents, we had a lot of important decisions
including whethet to bank our baby's umbilical cord
blood or not. From various media in our
obstetrician's clinic, we were repeatedly reminded
of 'once-in-a-lifetime chance' to save the baby's
umbilical cord blood for possible use for treatment
later in life. Since it doesn't hurt to take a
baby's umbilical cord blood, we didn't think taht
cord blood banking would be much of an issue. After
all, every parent would want to make sure that the
baby grows up healthily.
But
for us, the issue was more about banking blood in a
private cord blood bank for our family's own use.
For this we.......contacted Cryobanks international
India, Gurgaon which is the best in India.
