This topic is pretty controversial and a fairly new concept. I presented three years ago internationally and opened a few eyes. Most of you reading this will find it quite interesting read on:
How do you get this stuff
Is it safe?
What does it do?
Can it work with PRP?
All good questions I will answer. If you are not a paid subscriber you really should join to hear my spin on things gynecology. Weekly detailed and useful materials for ten bucks a month. So worth it.
I started my research into Amniotic Fluid around 2016-2017 when PRP was getting lots of traction worldwide. Dr. Runels was teaching his O-Shot and Vampire procedures and helping both doctors and patients worldwide. A full blown phenomenon had had started. A company in Arizona approached me and presented their amniotic fluid product for a trial. No one had used it for Gyn conditions so they picked my brain on where it may be useful for. I tried amniotic membrane to aid healing in the past but it kept falling off. I then used micronized amniotic membrane as a powder and as a liquid suspension to see if it would help with healing and found it useful but way too expensive for the average person. It was about $2,500 for 1cc back in 2010. Ahead of its time but unaffordable. Now this new company was able to dramatically cut the price to about $600 per cc so I became interested again. With volume use I cut the cost to $300 per cc and I was off and running.
Amniotic products worldwide were used quite a bit. My good friend Amr Seifeldin had been using amniotic membrane for pelvic reconstructive surgery in place of dermis and polypropylene and getting good results. He presented his data at my 2011 meeting and again in 2015 in Orlando. He still uses it fresh from CSections and is also able to obtain amniotic fluid for a fraction of the cost in the US. So you can see below the worldwide use for wounds and burns:
So here is what we will cover in this newsletter. My personal experience of the pure amniotic fluid since 2019.
