What is Femme / Why now?

The best time to opt for Femme is now. When you are young, both you and your body are at your prime, making it the best time to collect and preserve stem cells. For just as age affects various functions of your body, it also has a bearing on the quality of stem cells produced.

Age affects the ability to produce stem cells:
The body produces more stem cells when you are young. Research shows us that the number of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the bone marrow reduces rapidly with age (J Pathol 2009; 217:318-324). In a baby, the number of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in the bone marrow is 1 in 10,000. This falls to 1 in 1,000,000 by the time we reach the age of 70. The same applies to Menstrual Blood Stem Cells as well.

Age affects the fitness of stem cells:
Fitness in stem cells refers to the capability of the cell to transform into various types of tissues/cells in the body - the basic function which makes stem cells so invaluable. The younger the cell, the higher their fitness and the greater their effectiveness in treatment.

Age affects the potency of stem cells:
Potency in stem cells refers to the capability of the cell to replicate and multipy rapidly. This is vital for therapeutic uses. Younger cells have greater potency, hence are more useful, especially in multiple dosages.
