As an expecting parent,
you have three options when deciding what to do with your baby's
cord blood:
|
•
|
Privately store your
baby's cord blood : Currently, there are thousands of
scientists and projects worldwide working on regenerative
medicine (re-growing body parts lost through aging, injury
or illness) and many families are opting for personal
storage of their cord blood based on the current trends
and future potential. |
|
|
•
|
Donate the cord blood: By donating your
baby's cord blood you are possibly saving the life of
another human being. This blood can be used to help treat
an unrelated third party or for research of new
treatments. |
|
•
|
Discard
your baby's cord blood: Discarding the baby's cord blood
was once considered the standard procedure. However,
Doctor's have discovered that this "medical waste"
contains precious life saving stem cells. This option is
still available for families who do not which to donate or
store the cord blood. |
|
|
| We
see a number of diseases sprouting up with medical
remedies being of no great help. Instead, precious time
and money are lost, thus leaving one no where. We as a
couple decided to save our child's future by preserving
its Stem Cells with the service guaranteed by Cryobanks
International india, Gurgaon. Our Gynae told us about
the benefits of preserving cord blood that can be
helpful to any member in the family in future.
