What is the recovery time after stem cell therapy for Autism Spectrum Disorder?
Autism is not an injury from which a child recovers after an infusion. Immediate recovery depends on the actual procedure, while any research outcome requires the protocol's follow-up schedule. Continue ordinary care and seek urgent assessment for new severe symptoms.
What the evidence shows for Autism Spectrum Disorder
Human evidence remains investigational and product-specific. Small or uncontrolled studies cannot reliably separate an intervention from maturation, concurrent support, expectation or assessor bias. The FDA patient information on regenerative medicine therapies states that these therapies have not been approved in the United States to treat autism. Families should verify an exact authorised trial and seek independent developmental or paediatric review.
