Autism is generally diagnosed at around 3 to 4 years of age. Most studies assessing the efficacy of stem cell therapy had patients starting from the age of 3 – with no reported age-specific side effects (8-10). Additionally, human brains continue developing even after birth until early childhood; and it has been proven that early intervention in different neurodevelopmental conditions – including autism – was associated with better outcomes and quality of life. Therefore, we generally recommend undergoing the procedure during early school age (3-7 years) to allow for the best results.

Clinical benefit is not 100% guaranteed as is the case with any intervention, and consulting our specialists prior to undergoing the procedure is of utmost importance in order to gain more insight on the procedure.
