“After all, aren't we past the days
when we treat women like they are less capable than men of making
sound decisions for their own well-being? It's my body and my choice
if I want to donate a dozen of my eggs to science. Who knows -- maybe
it's my egg that will be used to find a cure for cancer.”

“That sperm-egg parity argument is so
bogus. When men donate sperm, they risk second thoughts about
unknown, random offspring, but they do not risk serious medical side
effects. Egg donation, on the other hand, can be hazardous to your
health. The New York Times reports, "Egg donors can suffer
serious side effects from the powerful hormones needed to generate
multiple eggs." And: "The most significant risk is ovarian
hyper-stimulation syndrome, which can cause bloating, abdominal pain
and, rarely, blood clots, kidney failure and other life-threatening
ailments."

“In practical terms, the bill would
bump up payments from hundreds to thousands of dollars. In Oregon —
which, like most states, does not have regulations governing egg
donation — women recently received $3,000–7,000 each for eggs
used in a study that created stem-cell
lines from cloned human embryos.”

Sarasota, Florida (PRWEB) June 18, 2013

After almost 20 years of performing regenerative treatments in the field of non surgical orthopedics, Wellington Chen, M.D., will begin conducting clinical trials for many degenerative diseases using adipose-derived stem cell therapy in Sarasota, Florida. The independent review board of the International cell medicine society is responsible for overseeing these trials.

Advanced Rejuvenation will treat patients suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and osteoarthritis following the IRB-approved protocols. Advanced Rejuvenation will be using adult autologous stem cells, harvested from the patients own adipose (fat) tissue or bone marrow if fat is not available. Because patients are receiving their own cells, there is no risk of rejection. As of 2007, over 9,000 studies have shown the safety using these cell lines.

Autologous stem cell therapy are your bodies repair men. They are circulated throughout your body and as soon as there is a need for them, chemical messages trigger them to migrate to the area and do their magic. They are both immune modulating and also regenerative which makes them a great therapeutic agent for osteoarthritis and COPD. Numerous studies have shown them to have the capacity to grow new cartilage, muscle, ligaments, glands and even organs. We believe stem cell treatments will become the future of care for most orthopedic problems avoiding the need for surgery. With COPD, when stem cells are run into the blood stream through an IV they will mostly pass through the lungs. We are excited to be apart of these research studies.

Advanced Rejuvenation trained under scientist Kristin Comella, CEO of Stemlogix. She was recently named in the Wall Street Journal as one of the 50 most influential people on stem cell research. Advanced Rejuvenation will implement Stemlogixs patented extraction process, allowing for an exceptionally high yield and viability of stem cells from fat.

During the in-office and same day procedure, a mini liposuction is performed. A half of a cup of fat in harvested from around the abdominal region which produces approximately 8 million stem cells. The stem cells are isolated put back into the patients joints or with COPD via an IV infusion. Local anesthesia is all that is needed and pain medication can be prescribed but is rarely necessary.

Advanced Rejuvenation has treated various orthopedic conditions for 4 years using fat transfer and now offers these treatments to patients ranging from NFL players to retired golfers.
