Cord blood stem cells are blood cell progenitors which can form red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. This is why cord blood cells are currently used to treat blood and immune system related genetic diseases, cancers, and blood disorders.
Thanks, Worried with IUD. Dear Worried with IUD, Donât worry! Spotting and cramping during the first few weeks (or even months) after ParaGard insertion is completely normal. That, erm, period of time may seem daunting, but it pares in comparison to the extremely long lasting effectiveness of the device â did you know it can prevent pregnancy for up to 10 years?
Please call if you have any bleeding (not oozing) or pus coming out of the insertion site that is not relieved by pressure. Remember to go for your post-insertion blood work 8 weeks after the insertion. Most women will need re-insertions of their pellets 4-5 months after their initial insertion. Please call as soon as symptoms that were relieved from the pellets start to return to make an appointment for a re-insertion.
