Autohemotherapy

Hello friends. Someone has used autohemotherapy ?

Yes I tried it, didnt really do anything though. 10ml of blood drawn and reinjected by 2 injections into the bum cheeks. Painless

I would try it only for fun, but instead in my glutes, I do prefer into my pecs, but the main drawback of such a techique (apart from its intrinsical uselessness unless for injection fetish lovers like us...) is the big chance of getting a severe hematoma in the muscular zone of injection that could remain almost two weeks until it will be absorbed.

Never saw any scientific proof of any efficiency… seems all is a Brasilian theory and no one else in the world is using it! It must leave big hematoma if injected in the glute… not Dangerous?

It sounds like a crock of shit to me--nothing more than third world voodoo.

If that were to work, every time you got a black and blue mark, your health should improve.

Simply injecting your blood into your glutes is ridiculous.

There are real uses for injecting blood products into various sites.

Lots of evidence exists for use in tendinopathy.

Not all of it robust and room for improvement however I've seen patients show great improvement in cases of achilles tendinopathy certainly.

I wouldn't be injecting it yourself into muscle tissue etc leave it to healthcare professionals.

Lit review from NICE.

OK, when you read into your reference, they discuss using PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma), which is a hell of a lot better than whole blood to inject into an injured site.

To get the PRP fraction, you need to draw blood and spin it down twice at different speeds to selectively capture and isolate the proper fraction of plasma containing the growth factors--platelet derived growth factor, transforming growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor, insulin like growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor. In the first spin, the RBCs are at the bottom of the tube and the remaining plasma is removed and spun again to concentrate the platelets.

How do I know this? I have drawn blood and prepared PRP for my father in law when he has done various bone grafting surgeries. If simply injecting blood into a site was very efficacious, surgeons wouldn't be using PRP and the bleeding into the site would give the desired amount of growth factors--which for many procedures, it doesn't.
