Autohemotherapy is a fairly old method of treating a number of diseases by injecting the patient subcutaneously or intramuscularly with his own blood taken from a vein. The method is good because it stimulates the body's own defenses to fight the disease.

It is used in dermatology, and now in cosmetology, it gives good results in the treatment of acne, helps with furunculosis, and relieves papillomas. But, unfortunately, when the method ceased to be a purely medical method of treatment with strict indications and contraindications, dissatisfied clients began to appear, for whom autohemotherapy did not help get rid of problems, despite the financial and time costs.

Let's see in what cases it is worth undergoing an autohemotherapy session, what needs to be done before deciding on the procedures, what else to find out about these procedures from a girlfriend if this treatment helped her.

Why doesn't it help everyone?

Medicine involves a systematic approach to the problem of treating any disease, when the doctor's attention is directed to the whole body, and not to individual symptoms.

But with regard to cosmetic skin defects, such as acne, acne, boils, this approach is often not applied, since:

• people with cosmetic problems do not go to doctors, they use the experience of friends and acquaintances who have been “helped” or information from advertisements and commercials as a guide to action;
• people turn to doctors, but do not complete the examination due to constant redirection from one specialist to another;
• the doctor prescribes to the patient a procedure that is in the price list of the institution, despite the fact that the procedure itself cannot have the desired effect (for example, some salons sell autohemotherapy as a rejuvenating facial skin procedure).

Add to this the intrusive marketing from manufacturers and sellers of cosmetics and medicines, cosmetic procedures, and you will get the answer, where do we get so many people who "have tried everything, but nothing helps."

If it starts to be sold as a salon service, before which the patient is not assigned any tests or examinations, then the effect is not guaranteed. You may be lucky, or you may not be.

What problems can be solved by the introduction of autologous blood

In response to subcutaneous or intramuscular injection of blood, a number of shifts in metabolism develop in the body, protective mechanisms are activated, and reactions aimed at increasing the body's resistance to adverse factors are intensified.

The most striking manifestation of the changes taking place in the human body are reactions from the immune system, when the body itself begins to cope with a number of problems:

• sluggish infectious and purulent processes are resolved;
• papillomas and warts disappear;
• the skin is cleansed of annoying acne and boils;
• the body successfully resists seasonal SARS;
• herpes does not recur.

This short list can be used as indications for autohemotherapy in cosmetology.

What advertising promises should not be trusted

• Autohemotherapy get rid of acne.

It might get rid of it, or it might not. If the cause of acne is pathogenic flora, then undoubtedly an increase in immunity and the body's ability to resist infection will lead to the disappearance of the rash or a decrease in the number of its elements on the skin.

If the matter is in the hormonal status, the presence of Helicobacter or diseases of the genital area, then the introduction of one's own blood may not give a result.

• Normalizes the work of the endocrine system.

A very general wording that allows any of the potential clients of the salon to put any meaning into it. The introduction of one's own blood will not allow people with insufficient thyroid function to refuse to take thyroxine or from the administration of insulin to patients with diabetes mellitus.

Therefore, it is better to ask the doctor specific questions about the disease or problem that you have during the consultation.

• Removes toxins from the body.

We will not be distracted by the anti-scientific nature of the word “slags”, but simply agree that this term will mean the metabolic products of the cells of the human body, which must be excreted by the sweat glands, kidneys and liver.

In renal or hepatic insufficiency, autohemotherapy will not replace hemodialysis or hemosorption.

And it is much more effective to cleanse the body of toxins and toxins on an ongoing basis with the help of a balanced diet, regular exercise, water procedures, and normalization of the intestines.

• Restore efficiency, increase vitality.

Self-hypnosis is our everything. Depression, constant lack of sleep, overwork cannot be cured by injecting your own blood into the fifth point. We need rest, good sleep, a change of scenery, meetings with friends, positive emotions every day. All this can not be replaced by a medical procedure.

What else to know

• The use of drugs for its implementation.

Currently, the main method of carrying out autohemotherapy is the introduction of fresh blood from a vein into the patient's gluteal muscle. But this is also the name of various methods in which medicinal or homeopathic preparations are added to venous blood before its administration.

What does it mean? If a friend tells you about real miracles with the skin after autohemotherapy, do not forget to clarify what else was injected into her.

If it was an antibiotic, then it is not at all necessary to spoil your veins. It is enough to drink antibiotics in a course in tablets or capsules and get the same effect.

In some cases, injections of autologous blood alternate with the administration of calcium gluconate. This course also differs from the usual course of autohemotherapy in how both of its components work individually and in combination, what effect can be obtained from the procedure.

• The use of topical preparations or agents for oral administration simultaneously with autohemotherapy.

Comprehensive treatment gives better results for a longer time. If, with the introduction of autologous blood, a person was given a local talker, oral medications, it was recommended to change skin care cosmetics, completely abandon decorative products and certain foods for a while, then any of these factors or their combined effect could lead to an improvement in the skin condition.

By itself, autohemotherapy without other measures could not give an effect.

• This procedure is absolutely safe and harmless.

This is a medical procedure and the whole science of treating diseases by injecting one's own blood into the patient's tissues. As a medical science, it should be appointed by professionals in their field, and not by salon salespeople in white coats.

And as a medical procedure, the introduction of autologous blood should be carried out in a treatment room with sterility, so that the procedure does not do more harm than good. It is worth doing at home only if a nurse or doctor performs the procedures. Also, the method has its own contraindications and side effects.

Contraindications

These procedures are not prescribed and are not carried out in the following cases:

• pregnancy and breastfeeding period;
• mental illness in the acute stage;
• epilepsy;
• arrhythmias;
• oncology of any localization;
• acute myocardial infarction.

Temporary contraindications for carrying out are:

• alcohol consumption, in which the patient comes to the procedure in a state of intoxication;
• general serious condition of the body;
• febrile condition and some others at the discretion of the attending physician.

Autohemotherapy schemes

Currently, several schemes have been developed, among them there are classical ones, which have been used without changes since the times of the Soviet Union, and modern copyright ones, which are used by doctors in their clinics to treat diseases of various profiles. The most commonly used are the following.

• classical

The technique of the procedure is simple: blood is taken from a vein in the arm and injected into the gluteal muscle. During the first procedure, 2 ml of blood is taken, during the second 4 ml, and so on until the volume of blood reaches 10 ml at a time.

Injections are given every day or every other day. In some cases, after reaching a volume of 10 ml, several more procedures are performed, during which the volume of injected blood is gradually reduced to 2 ml.

• Small autohemotherapy with ozone

First, 5 ml of a mixture of ozone and oxygen is drawn into the syringe, and then up to 10 ml of blood is taken from a vein. The contents of the syringe are gently mixed and injected intramuscularly.

• Large with ozone

100-150 ml of the patient's blood is taken into a special sterile container, an anticoagulant is added there (a drug that prevents blood from clotting) and 100-300 ml of a mixture of ozone and oxygen is injected there. The contents of the container are stirred for 5-10 minutes, and then administered to the patient intravenously.

• Stepped according to Reckeweg.

The procedure is divided into four stages. During each of the stages, venous blood is enriched with one of the homeopathic preparations and injected intramuscularly to the patient.

• Biopuncture.

Venous blood is injected under the skin in the area of ​​acupuncture points. Side effects:

• increase in body temperature;
• the appearance of compaction and soreness at the site of injection of blood into the muscle or under the skin;
• hematomas;
• the appearance of infiltrates in the muscle, followed by suppuration;
• deterioration of health, activation of the disease process in the body.

How often can you do

Usually, between courses of procedures, breaks are prescribed for at least three months. Only a doctor can answer this question in more detail. In some cases, repeated courses may not be necessary.

There are many therapies, the effectiveness of which remains in doubt, but which are nevertheless popular among patients and some doctors. Just such methods of exposure include autohemotherapy.

What it is?

Autohemotherapy is a method of using the patient's own venous blood for subcutaneous or intramuscular administration. Doctors used it a hundred years ago in dermatological practice. In the classical scheme of autotherapy for infusions, pure venous blood is used, in which there are absolutely no impurities. It is applied immediately after delivery. However, sometimes such a biological fluid is subjected to various sterilization methods, in particular, it is combined with antibiotics or ozone.

It is believed that the introduction of one's own blood in a certain way activates the immune system, causes a number of positive changes in metabolic processes, stimulates defense mechanisms, and also enhances reactions that ensure the body's resistance to various adverse factors.

Indications and contraindications

It is believed that autohemotherapy procedures can be useful and effective in correcting:

• Infectious lesions of the skin at various stages of development.
• Genital herpes.
• Papillomas and warts.
• Chronic adnexitis and adhesive processes in the small pelvis.
• Cytomegalovirus infection.
• All kinds of allergic ailments, even bronchial asthma.
• Sleep quality disorders.
• Hormonal changes and various health disorders associated with the onset of menopause.
• Chronic pain syndrome.
• Depressive conditions, chronic fatigue syndrome, as well as frequent stress.
• Disturbances in the digestive tract caused by psychological and physiological factors, including nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite.

Performing autohemotherapy promotes the activation of lymph flow and blood flow, helps to start metabolic processes and improve the functioning of the immune system in general. However, it may not always be possible to do so. There are several categorical contraindications for such a procedure:

• The period of bearing a child and breastfeeding.
• Mental illnesses that are in the acute stage.
• Epilepsy and other convulsive conditions.
• Arrhythmias and some other types of heart rhythm disturbances, as well as other pathologies of the cardiovascular system, especially cardiovascular insufficiency.
• Renal failure.
• Tuberculosis in active form.
• Cancer diseases of various localization.
• Heart attack or stroke.

Also, in some conditions, doctors cannot perform autohemotherapy and strongly recommend postponing it until later. In particular, among the temporary contraindications are:

• A state of alcoholic or drug intoxication.
• Increased body temperature.
• General disturbance of well-being.
• Menstruation.

The expediency of using autohemotherapy in each case is determined by the attending physician. It is worth noting that many modern doctors are quite skeptical about such a practice.

Side effects of autogenic therapy

The introduction of one's own blood subcutaneously or intramuscularly is a rather painful procedure that brings tangible discomfort. But in addition, it can cause other undesirable effects:

• Fever, muscle soreness, inflammation at the injection site. Such symptoms most often appear with the introduction of large volumes of blood.
• Formation of seals at injection sites.
• Hematoma formation.
• The formation of painful infiltrates in the muscle, which can subsequently suppurate.
• General disturbance of well-being, activation of pathological processes in the body.

Does transfusion of own blood help with acne?

Among the contraindications to autohemotherapy, various types of skin rashes can be distinguished - these are simple acne, and abundant acne, and inflamed acne, and even boils. Some sources contain information that such treatment can give a visually noticeable effect in about 80% of cases. A positive result in this case is explained by the ability of one's own blood to activate the work of the whole organism and the protective forces in particular. After all, such a liquid contains not only useful elements, but also quite a lot of frankly harmful or conditionally pathogenic substances. Their introduction causes the immune system to wake up and begin to fight problems, including a rash.

Many practicing dermatologists are rather skeptical about the possibility of autohemotherapy. Nevertheless, it continues to be practiced in many alternative medicine centers and beauty salons.

The scheme of hemotherapy

To date, there are several schemes for conducting autohemotherapy. To get rid of acne, doctors select the best method of exposure, depending on the cause of acne, as well as the presence of additional complaints.

How is autohemotransfusion done for acne, furunculosis and acne?

Most often, dermatologists prefer the following treatment regimens:

• Classic. Blood is taken from the patient from a vein located on the arm, after which it is immediately injected into the gluteal muscle. For the first procedure, 2 ml of blood is used, for the second - twice as much. Therapy continues until the volume of injected blood is 10 ml. Injections are performed daily or at intervals of a day. Sometimes the doctor may recommend several procedures with a maximum volume, after which it will also be necessary to gradually return to the initial dosage of 2 ml.
• Small with ozone. First, the doctor draws 5 ml of a mixture of ozone and oxygen into the syringe, then draws blood from a vein and injects the resulting mixture intramuscularly. The frequency of procedures and dosage are selected individually.
• Large with ozone. To perform such a procedure, about 100-150 ml of the patient's blood is taken inside a special sterile container, then an anti-clotting agent (anticoagulant) and a mixture of ozone and oxygen in a volume of about 100-300 ml are added to it. The resulting mixture is stirred, then administered to the patient intravenously.


• Stepped according to Reckeweg. This procedure involves the enrichment of venous blood with homeopathic preparations, after which the mixture is injected intramuscularly. Manipulation is performed in four stages. The main difference of this procedure is that the patient's blood is used in a minimal volume (about 0.1-0.2 ml.). In total, doctors advise to undergo about 7-10 procedures at weekly intervals.
• Biopuncture. With this method of autohemotherapy, blood is injected to the patient at the localization of acupuncture points.

Some clinics offer only one autohemotherapy regimen - the classic one. But in fact, an experienced doctor must analyze the patient's condition and draw a conclusion about which option will be optimal for him.

Antibiotic treatment

If there is a mass of acne on the face or body of the patient, as well as periodically appearing boils, doctors may advise autohemotherapy with an antibiotic. With this treatment, an antibacterial drug is added to the venous blood, after which it is administered intramuscularly. This tactic allows you to achieve quick and noticeable positive results:

• Inflammation begins to go away from the skin literally the next day after the course of therapy.
• Existing carbuncles or boils become less noticeable.
• The pathogenic microorganism that provokes rashes is eliminated from the blood. Accordingly, the disease does not recur.

Autohemotherapy with an antibiotic is not necessary in every case. However, if there are appropriate indications, it will indeed give a more persistent and noticeable effect than the classic one. But the same result can be achieved with the help of an internal intake of a properly selected antibiotic.

Which doctor prescribes and where can I do it?

In the presence of acne eruptions, a cosmetologist can recommend autohemotherapy. But it is better to get an appointment from a dermatologist after a complete examination of the body. For other health problems, other specialists, such as a therapist or gynecologist, can also send for such procedures.

The manipulations themselves for the collection and intramuscular or subcutaneous injection of one's own venous blood can be carried out in the conditions of a conventional treatment room in a polyclinic (with an appropriate appointment from a doctor), private medical clinics, cosmetology centers, etc.

Is home cleaning possible?

Purely theoretically, autohemotherapy may well be carried out at home (meaning the classical technique). However, such manipulation requires compliance with several very important rules:

• Blood sampling and injections can only be carried out by an experienced specialist and in compliance with the rules of antisepsis and sterility.
• Before starting a course of therapy, it is necessary to undergo a complete examination of the body and get a “go-ahead” from the doctor for autohemotherapy.
• It is necessary to use disposable syringes and needles each time, use alcohol to clean hands and skin, and use rubber gloves to protect the hands of the medic.
• The introduction of blood must be done very slowly.
• The injection site must be warmed up, for example, by applying an iodine mesh.

It is better not to take risks and not rely on chance. Autohemotherapy procedures, even in private clinics, are not so expensive, so it is better to surrender to the hands of specialists.

To activate some functions of the body, a safe medical procedure is used - autohemotherapy, which helps to destroy pathogens. Why is this procedure necessary, to whom it is shown, what exactly it helps.

What is autohemotherapy

In dermatology and beauty parlors, autohemotherapy has been increasingly used for treatment. The introduction of the patient's own blood is carried out to strengthen the immune system, treat skin and other diseases. The procedure is done intravenously, injected into the gluteal muscle or subcutaneously.

In the classical sense, this type of treatment involves taking blood fluid from a patient with a disposable syringe, and without mixing it with anything else, it is reintroduced back to the person. Treatment is standard according to the classical scheme. Correction is made by the doctor in cases where the patient has the necessary indications for this.

Exploratory survey

Initially, they will appoint a small commission, consisting of several doctors. And after passing the examination, if necessary, he can prescribe a course of autohemotherapy. Visit these professionals:

• The endocrinologist will prescribe a blood test to clarify the situation with the hormonal background. Most often, hormonal imbalances can be the main cause of acne. Autohemotherapy will not cope with this problem, therefore it can be a useless procedure;
• The therapist will recommend undergoing ultrasound and other studies to detect the presence of peptic ulcer, gastritis, and helminthic invasion. If violations are detected, you will have to undergo a treatment course. The expediency of the procedure in this case may temporarily disappear.
• The gynecologist will prescribe an examination on the gynecological chair, ultrasound to detect diseases in the small pelvis. If present, the skin may be sprinkled with pimples, acne or blackheads. No cosmetic products can remove such rashes without proper medical therapy.

Scheme of introduction

Every day for five days, 2 ml of blood is taken from the patient in the manipulation room. According to the scheme, the blood fluid is injected back. For one course, the patient must undergo 10-15 injections, unless the doctor has prescribed less or more.

If the puncture site in the gluteal muscle hurts, a hematoma has formed or has hardened, then it is recommended to apply a warm heating pad at night.

Impact principle

The effectiveness of the treatment procedure lies in the automatic "switching on" of a defensive reaction if he feels the impact of hostile objects. The technique purposefully, as it were, deceives our body when introducing our own blood. The risk of unwanted reactions is minimized here.

Human blood can have any harmful micro-organisms, by-products. For this reason, the immune system will still have to face them and try to suppress them, which will further temper and strengthen health. Thanks to autohemotherapy, the protective functions of the body are activated.

People face environmental problems every day, which they know firsthand. These are microscopic dust flying from production facilities, and poorly purified drinking water, and low-quality products in stores.

A bad ecological climate is not the best environment for a normal human life, as it has a detrimental effect on health. Of course, you can include more fresh herbs, fruits, and vitamin supplements in your diet. But if this is not enough, then you can use autohemotherapy.

Autohemotherapy for acne

After the necessary examination and receipt of the results, the doctor may prescribe therapeutic therapy by injecting his own blood into the gluteal muscles. The procedure is carried out in the manipulation room of any clinic or private clinic under the supervision of medical personnel.

After the examinations are completed, the doctor selects the optimal number of procedures, calculates, according to the scheme, how many doses of venous blood will need to be transfused, and also determines the injection site. With a positive outcome of treatment procedures, you can get a good result, this is:

• In addition to the disappearance of rashes or acne, getting rid of many skin problems is also added;
• The procedure for transfusion of blood fluid helps the rapid healing of injuries or wounds;
• The scarred surface or places with scars become less noticeable.

In scientific circles, there is an opinion that with the help of such procedures, rejuvenation occurs. It is fair to note that for some reason this hypothesis is not officially confirmed in medical circles, although research in this direction is being actively conducted.

Indications for the procedure

For therapeutic cosmetic purposes, autohemotherapy is used in the following cases:

• For the treatment of multiple rashes, acne;
• The procedure removes the inflammatory processes provoked by acne;
• Furuncles, which can often occur;
• From rashes on the face caused by herpes;
• To remove inflammatory processes in the respiratory organs, which are of a chronic nature;
• Reduce the development factor of papillomas and wart bumps, but only if they are not of viral origin.

Procedures based on the transfusion of one's own blood fluid from a vein into the gluteus muscle have a positive effect on the entire body with a reduced functioning of the immune system.

Application scheme

To get rid of acne, pimple-like formations, the doctor paints a scheme for the use of autohemotherapy. It is built on the principle of increasing the daily dose of venous blood, for example, as follows:

• Day 1 - medical staff makes a sampling from a vein and an injection into the gluteal muscle, 1 ml each. blood fluid;
• Day 2 - a little more, 2 ml. blood;
• Day 3 - 3 ml. blood and so on until a dose of 5 ml is reached. blood fluid.

From this moment on, the dosage count goes in the opposite direction, according to the principle of reduction. To clean the skin surface from acne or blackheads as much as possible, you need to go through 1-2 treatment courses. One course is equal to 9 days.

In advanced situations, a more productive appointment may be required. To do this, the procedure is strengthened as follows:

• 1 day - 2 ml are taken and injected into the gluteal muscle or subcutaneously. blood;
• Day 2 - skip treatment;
• Day 3 - repeat the dosage exactly the same as on the first day;
• Day 4 - skip treatment;
• Day 5 - set and injections are equal to 4 ml. blood fluid.

According to this scheme, medical procedures are carried out until the daily dose reaches 10 ml / blood. The next day, the dosage begins to decrease in the opposite direction, that is, by 2 ml.

After such enhanced treatment, the state of health improves, toxic compounds, toxins and other obscene substances that may be contained in the body and blood system are removed from the body. Thanks to this, the face will gradually clear up of unwanted rashes.

Autohemotherapy contraindications

Although the procedures are considered safe for humans, they are not shown to everyone. List of contraindications:

• Pre-infarction and infarction conditions, strokes;
• Violations in cardiac rhythm of a severe nature;
• Pathological cardiac conditions;
• Epilepsy;
• Malignant neoplasms;
• Diseases of mental disorder;
• Exacerbation of diseases and inflammatory processes with the observation of high body temperature;
• Drinking alcoholic beverages and the use of autohemotherapy is completely unacceptable to combine;
• Tuberculin diseases in the active phase;
• Renal failure in severe form;
• It is not recommended to undergo blood transfusion treatment for women who are breastfeeding. The same applies to pregnant women. You should refrain from procedures.
• This treatment is not recommended during menstruation. During this period, the body already receives stress from blood loss.

Aloe therapy

In almost every apartment you can find a healing flower - aloe on the windowsill. From time immemorial, humanity has been cured of the common cold, and it is also used to this day as a bactericidal agent for healing wounds and erosions. The juice of this plant is rich in beneficial enzymes, fiber, amino acids and other active elements.

Aloe juice in cosmetology is of value. It is included in many cosmetic formulations. For example, it could be:

• Moisturizing cream with aloe extract that tightens and moisturizes the skin;
• You can completely eliminate dermatological problems with the skin;
• Scarlet juice relieves skin irritability;
• It has an anti-inflammatory effect, so it is also added to sunscreen cosmetics.

Various tonics, lotion liquids with aloe or creams are popular with the beautiful half of humanity. This plant has many useful properties.

For cosmetic purposes, aloe is used in the autohemotherapy procedure. To do this, you need to buy a ready-made extract in ampoules in pharmacy kiosks and give it to a specialist in a manipulation or beauty parlor for injections.

For recovery processes or to cleanse rashes during autohemotherapy, it is customary to mix your own blood fluid with a transfusion of drugs. For example, it can be injections with aloe extract.

Most often, such injections are prescribed to women who have various gynecological diseases. They are also made to alleviate the condition in diseases of the bronchi, peptic ulcer.

When mixing aloe juice with human blood, the treatment is much more effective, since the properties of the drug are enhanced, which makes the result more noticeable.

As with any drug, aloe juice has its own contraindications:

• Autohemotherapy is not indicated in conjunction with aloe extract for ladies who suffer from high blood pressure;
• Do not administer aloe with blood fluid to those who have kidney problems;
• Not recommended for people suffering from disorders of the cardiovascular system.

Autohemotherapy in cosmetology

After the performed autohemotherapy procedures, the most tangible results are visible in the beautiful half of humanity, who have long ago exceeded 40 years. The technique is applied schematically for the preventive purpose of preventing the premature onset of aging of the female body.

As a result of the treatment regimen, the following changes occur:

• The work of the endocrine system is restored;
• The youthfulness of the skin is prolonged;
• Restorative medical procedures help to slow down the extinction of the hormonal background. This is due to its own hormonal potentiated cells, which are available in the finished homeopathic microdose;
• Autohemotherapy, carried out in the autumn or winter, will effectively help improve the functioning of the immune system. This is all the more true when there are numerous bursts of colds and infectious diseases.

Procedure Techniques

1. Classical type of autohemotherapy. With a sterile syringe, medical personnel draw the necessary dose of blood fluid from a vein. Then injected into the gluteal muscle of the patient. One course is 12-15 injections.
2. Small autohemotherapy using ozone. With this method, venous blood is taken from the patient, then it is mixed with ozone in the required concentration and injected back intramuscularly. But subcutaneous injection is undesirable here. Used to treat gynecological, dermatological, urological diseases, viral and allergic diseases.
3. Stepwise type of this technique. Before. how to inject a patient with her own blood, it is first shaken to obtain a homeopathic remedy. Then the blood fluid is injected back through the active points on the body or into the gluteal muscle. Homeopathic remedies can be added to the blood to enhance the effect.

Autohemotherapy is an effective treatment method that helps to get rid of health problems.

About the author: Larisa Vladimirovna Lukina

Autohemotherapy is a fairly popular medical and cosmetic procedure, the essence of which is the intramuscular or subcutaneous injection of venous blood to the patient. The method under consideration is based on “treatment of like with like”. According to the most popular assumption, blood, most of which is water, is able to "retain" information about various disorders in the body, and with repeated injections, it can find them and eliminate them.

The scheme of autohemotherapy is prescribed by the doctor in a separate order. With this treatment, the patient is injected subcutaneously or intramuscularly with his fresh venous blood, in most cases not mixed with any drugs and not subject to any changes. In some situations, the doctor may prescribe autohemotherapy with an antibiotic or anti-inflammatory drug.

The amount of blood injected in one procedure, the procedure for changing the volume during the course of treatment, the frequency of procedures and their total number, the place of blood sampling and its further administration - all these indicators can change and are set by the doctor on a separate basis, taking into account the characteristics of the condition of a particular patient.

Autohemotherapy is practiced by doctors of various specialties. At the same time, all experts note approximately similar clinical results of autohemotherapy for acne and other diseases.

In general, the introduction of blood during autohemotherapy contributes to the activation of rehabilitation and protective functions. Among the positive effects, the following points should be highlighted:

1. Faster healing of various kinds of injuries and wounds.

2. Accelerated recovery after surgical interventions.

3. Effective resolution of skin problems.

4. Accelerated recovery after inflammatory diseases.

5. Increasing efficiency.

6. Improving the psychological state.

Autohemotherapy: indications, contraindications and side effects

Autohemotherapy for acne has a lot of stable positive properties, a minimum number of contraindications and an almost complete absence of side effects.

Most often, the technique is used in dermatology and cosmetology in the fight against acne and other skin problems. Also, blood transfusion contributes to more effective treatment of the following diseases:

• chronic cytomegalovirus infection;
• genital herpes;
• inflammation in the uterus and appendages;
• climacteric syndrome;
• adhesive processes in the pelvic organs;
• papillomatosis;
• condylomatosis;
• infertility.

Despite a number of indications for blood transfusion, this method has several serious limitations. Among the contraindications for autohemotherapy for acne and other ailments, it should be noted:

• arrhythmia;
• heart attack;
• epilepsy;
• cancer diseases;
• psychosis of any origin and nature of the course;
• pregnancy;
• breastfeeding period.

Important! Only a doctor can prescribe the frequency of performing autohemotherapy procedures for acne. Blood transfusion in large quantities leads to side effects, so the treatment should be supervised by a specialist.

Among the side effects of autohemotherapy for acne, the following manifestations are most common:

• muscle pain;
• temperature increase;
• inflammatory reactions;
• chills.

Features of the autohemotherapy treatment regimen

When treating acne with autohemotherapy according to the standard scheme, the patient is first injected with 2 ml of his venous blood, and after that, with an interval of 1-3 days (the specific frequency is set by the doctor), the blood volume increases by 2 ml. The increase in volume continues up to 10 ml, and after that it is also reduced by 2 ml each procedure. For one course of autohemotherapy for acne, the patient usually receives about 10-15 blood injections, however, the number of injections and the volume of each injection may vary depending on the specific situation.

In addition to the classic autohemotherapy for acne, there are several other treatment options, namely:

1. Step autohemotherapy for acne. In accordance with this technique, venous blood is diluted in homeopathic preparations prescribed by a specialist. Specific drugs are selected in accordance with the characteristics of the course of the patient's disease and the general state of his body.

2. Autohemotherapy using ozonation. When carrying out this technique, the blood is mixed with ozone, due to which its therapeutic qualities are further enhanced. Usually this method of autohemotherapy is used in the treatment of acne and various gynecological diseases.

3. Biopuncture. In this case, small doses of blood are injected into special acupuncture, pain and reflexogenic points. There is a significant reduction in the duration of treatment.

4. Therapy with autologous blood. Previously, the patient's blood is affected by various methods, for example, irradiated with ultraviolet, X-rays, treated with a laser, frozen, etc. After such treatment, an increase in the effectiveness of autohemotherapy in the fight against rashes and other diseases is noted.

Is it possible to carry out autohemotherapy at home?

Autohemotherapy for acne is a simple procedure. If there are recommendations for such treatment, it can be managed at home. In order for acne treatment with autohemotherapy to be normal, you need:

• have minimal medical skills - be able to take blood from a vein and inject it into a muscle (under the skin);
• strictly adhere to the dosage and frequency of procedures prescribed by the doctor;
• observe appropriate sterility measures.

It is enough to take the required amount of blood from a vein (usually it is more convenient to take from a vein of the left arm, in the area of ​​​​the reverse elbow bend) and inject under the skin or into a muscle (most often injected into the gluteal muscle).

Advice! If there is the slightest doubt about the correctness of the autohemotherapy procedures for acne, the occurrence of the previously described side effects and a general deterioration in well-being, refuse blood transfusions at home and contact a medical facility.

Remember: the absence of the previously mentioned contraindications to autohemotherapy is far from a reason to prescribe the procedure yourself. Under any circumstances, you should first consult with your doctor and undergo the necessary examinations, if recommended by the doctor.

Effectiveness of blood transfusion for acne

Autohemotherapy is actively used in cosmetology and dermatology for the treatment of acne and a number of other skin problems. Among the numerous indications for autohemotherapy, premature skin aging is also distinguished. As a result of the procedures, the restoration of the normal hormonal background and the function of the endocrine gland is noted.

Autohemotherapy is an excellent alternative to antibiotics for skin problems that cannot be treated with a variety of topical preparations - masks, creams, etc.

When using autohemotherapy against acne, along with the patient’s blood, his own toxins, toxins and other “waste” enter his body, under the influence of which the native protective functions of a person are stimulated. As a result, immunity becomes much stronger and the body has the strength to fight pustular infections.

Despite the effectiveness of autohemotherapy for acne, the patient must remember the importance of regular hygienic skin care. According to average statistics, the effectiveness of autohemotherapy for acne is about 85%.

Autohemotherapy is the treatment of a patient with his personal blood (venous). The very process of this procedure is able to cause some kind of biological stimulation of the internal organs of a person, as well as all body systems, thereby contributing to the improvement of their functionality. Studying the harm, benefits and the very methods of carrying out this autohemotherapy procedure makes it possible to evaluate the effectiveness and usefulness of this method in the treatment of various diseases.

What is autohemotherapy

Autohemotherapy, or rather the process of this procedure itself, occurs by taking the patient's blood from a vein and injecting it intradermally, intramuscularly and subcutaneously. In rare cases, the intravenous route is used. In this case, the very effect of this procedure (autohemotherapy) will be due to a special protective reaction of the patient's body, which will be aimed at combating the incoming biomaterials.

The patient's blood itself, which has been subjected to various changes (for example, oxidation or decay of elements, and so on), with the presence of most substances in it (metabolic products or microorganisms, and so on), becomes a kind of biological stimulant for the function of the systems and organs of the patient's body. There are no strong negative consequences from the performed autohemotherapy procedure for the sole reason, namely, the coincidence of the injected biomaterial.

In some cases, for the procedure of autohemotherapy, the blood of not only the patient, but also his relatives, for example, mother or father, brother or sister, can be used.

This method is empirical, because there is not enough evidence base. This method is based on the ability of water, which is considered the main component of the patient's blood, to remember information about ongoing various processes in the body, including pathological ones. After the so-called re-introduction of the biomaterial, the defense mechanisms detect some negative formations and enter into battle with them, this explains the immunomodulatory effect of the autohemotherapy procedure.

The autohemotherapy procedure shows the strongest pronounced effect on the condition of the skin, therefore it is more predominantly used in cosmetology. To increase the therapeutic effect, the taken blood, before being reintroduced, can be mixed with various homeopathic or medicinal products, and also undergoes various kinds of changes (for example, ozonation or freezing, and so on).

Useful properties of the procedure

Based on the mechanisms of action of the autohemotherapy procedure on the patient's body, various subsequent useful properties of this procedure:

• 
  Anti-inflammatory effect will help eliminate various purulent processes in soft tissues, as well as chronic inflammatory formations in the patient's body (for example, pneumonia or furunculosis). In this case, it is possible to use the autohemotherapy procedure with the use of antibiotics;
• 
  Rejuvenating effect the procedure is used in cosmetology for premature aging of the skin in women who are already over thirty years old;
• 
  Recovery after serious illness or surgical interventions;
• Ridding the body of waste and toxins;
• Improving lymph flow and blood circulation;
• Decreased cholesterol in the patient's blood, increasing the elasticity of blood vessels and enriching the blood with oxygen. All these properties are used in geriatrics in the fight against various age-related changes or senile diseases;
• 
  Increase mental and physical performance and an increase in the tone of the body;
• Stabilization of the psycho-vegetative and emotional state;
with allergic reactions contributes to a fairly effective elimination of allergens in the blood;
• 
  Enhanced tissue repair contributes to their increased healing (ulcers in diabetes, wounds, fractures, injuries, varicose veins);
• The increase in the effect contributes, so to speak, to the joint conduct of the autohemotherapy procedure with the use of vitamins;
• The procedure of autohemotherapy in gynecology so to speak normalizes the menstrual cycle, and also helps to eliminate a certain adhesive process, to cure various kinds of chronic inflammatory formations in the small pelvis;
• 
  Strengthening effect on the articular tissue, blood vessels, musculoskeletal tissue, heart. In this case, the autohemotherapy procedure using calcium gluconate can be used;
• Elimination of defects on the skin(acne, psoriasis, dermatitis, acne, and so on), relief of their symptoms (hyperemia, swelling, itching). These properties of this procedure are widely used in cosmetology and dermatology.
  The effectiveness of autohemotherapy in the case of acne is about eighty percent;
• Improving the functioning of the endocrine system, stabilizing hormonal imbalance, as well as improving metabolic processes.

Indications for autohemotherapy

Based on the useful properties of the autohemotherapy procedure and the safety of the session itself, there are some indications for its appointment:

Features of autohemotherapy

The principle of the autohemotherapy procedure is based on taking a certain amount of the patient's venous blood and re-introducing it. With all this, there are features of such a procedure:

• 
  If nessesary intramuscular injection of blood patient, then it must be injected into the upper extreme area (quadrant) of the buttocks. If blood sampling is done from the left hand, then the injection itself should be carried out in the right buttock.
  
• In order to prevent blood clotting, you need to mix the biomaterial with a component such as sodium citrate, salt and hydrogen peroxide;
• When blood and other substances, components and preparations interfere, it is forbidden to shake the container or the syringe itself.
  Movements must be light and careful to avoid the formation of bubbles in the resulting solution, this can lead to quite dangerous and very undesirable consequences (embolism);
• A very important aspect of the procedure is observance of sterility.
  Intramuscular and intravenous intervention must be in an increased degree of disinfection. In particular, this applies to the procedure of autohemotherapy with one's own hands at home;
• 
  We do not recommend that you inject a large portion of blood, since the increase in volume will take place gradually, thereby reaching a special level of no more than ten milliliters. Otherwise, inflammation may occur at the injection site, which will be accompanied by chills, muscle pain and fever. With the manifestation of such symptoms, treatment can be stopped both for a while and forever, everything will depend on the decision of the doctor. In this case, the dose, so to speak, of repeated administration of the client's blood will be reduced;
• 
  To prevent the formation of infiltrates, we recommend on the injection area apply iodine mesh and also apply alcohol compresses. It is also allowed to use a heating pad;
• 
  If you go through everything according to the instructions, then the re-introduction of blood will occur intradermally, intramuscularly or subcutaneously. Intramuscular is somewhat preferred because it reduces the risk of infiltrates, bruising and local inflammation at the injection site. Subcutaneous injection of blood must pass more than one milliliter, which contributes to the occurrence of these complications. The intravenous option is used very rarely, mainly with the use of droppers.

Scheme of the procedure of autohemotherapy

How to properly conduct an autohemotherapy session?

As a rule, the number of injections, the duration of treatment, the volume of blood injected and the method itself will be determined by the patient's doctor. The appointments themselves will be based on the assessment of the patient and, accordingly, his indications for the autohemotherapy procedure itself. The decision of the question, “How often to carry out the procedure”, also follows the doctor.

Important! The interval between procedures must be at least one hundred days, it is best to conduct sessions twice a year.

In medicine, as well as in cosmetology itself, several methods of carrying out the autohemotherapy procedure are used, while their basic principle is completely identical, but there is one difference, which is in the scheme of the procedure.

Standard

The scheme of a simple autohemotherapy procedure is based on a gradual increase in the volume of blood injected to the patient. The initial dose consists of one to two milliliters. Each subsequent procedure will increase the volume by two milliliters. After the blood dose reaches ten milliliters, then a countdown is made, that is, a gradual decrease in the dosage to the initial dose. As a rule, injections are obtained in one course from ten to fifteen, the course lasts from one to two days.

with ozone

The scheme of this method will be based on the dosage of ozonized (i.e. enrichment of the blood with active oxygen) blood, which will be taken from the patient. This method is widely used, because the therapeutic quality of the procedure increases. Autohemotherapy itself with the help of ozone contributes to a rather powerful destruction of pathogenic microorganisms in one portion of blood taken from a patient.

This procedure has two types:

stepped

In this case, the blood must be diluted with special homeopathic preparations in stages before it is reintroduced back. As a rule, there are only four stages, however, at each of which, the enrichment of the biomaterial with a certain homeopathy is used, as well as a single injection of blood intramuscularly. The prescription of the medicine itself and, of course, its concentration is made exclusively by the doctor, who will proceed from the problem.

Hemopuncture (Biopuncture)

The scheme of this method leads to the introduction of blood into acupuncture and reflexogenic points, which greatly reduces the duration of treatment.

It is also possible to combine a homeopathic remedy with a biomaterial.

This method has its own distinctive feature, it is the collection and re-introduction of very small portions of blood.

Therapy with autoblood

In this method, the blood taken from the patient will be subjected to various influences, such as treatment with x-rays, ultraviolet and laser radiation, freezing. With all this, there will be changes in the composition of the biomaterial, as well as a change in its characteristics, which will naturally increase the effectiveness of this procedure.

In addition to all of the above treatment regimens, autohemotherapy can be combined with hirudotherapy, that is, with the addition of vitamins, antibiotics, and so on to the blood.

Methods of treatment

Based on the pathology to be treated, the doctor himself chooses the choice of a scheme for the autohemotherapy procedure, as well as the choice of medicines and additional measures.

The procedure itself is somewhat similar for a large number of diseases, but there are still some nuances in this.

• 
  With peptic ulcer, bronchial disease and gynecological pathologies.
  We recommend to carry out the procedure of autohemotherapy with the aloe component. For this, a plant extract is used in special ampoules. But, the procedure itself with aloe is not carried out with people who are prone to high blood pressure, as well as with violations of the functions of blood vessels, kidneys and heart.
• 
  With acne.
  In this case, we recommend the scheme of the procedure using ozone. At the same time, a very high efficiency is established, as well as a quick effect, which can manifest itself after the third injection.
• With deforming arthrosis of the knee joint.
  
  During the period of exacerbation of deformity of arthrosis of the knee joint, an autohemotherapy procedure is applied with the addition of novocaine, which is made in the form of a solution or powder for injection. In order to carry out the procedure, nineteen milliliters of novocaine (zero point five percent) and one milliliter of the patient's own blood are drawn into a simple twenty-cc syringe. This resulting solution for injection must be administered according to a special biopuncture scheme to biological points (active). Basically, eight to sixteen procedures are carried out in one day or every day. Such treatment improves blood microcirculation, and also reduces pain, thereby eliminating the feeling of stiffness.
• When fighting sluggish, chronic infections and increasing immunity.
  In this case, the scheme of the procedure with ozone is used.
• 
  To strengthen the musculoskeletal system, articular tissue and maintain the function of blood vessels and the heart.
  The scheme of the autohemotherapy procedure with the calcium gluconate component is used. But it is necessary to carry out such a procedure only as directed by a doctor, while strictly observing the dose of the drug. Excess calcium in the blood can cause quite serious harm to the health of both you and the patient. We advise you to conduct a blood test for the level of the mineral in the blood before the autohemotherapy procedure.
• With cytomegalovirus infection, papillomas, herpes.
  Small autohemotherapy can reduce the recurrence of this kind of disease.
• 
  With infertility.
  The procedure of autohemotherapy is widely and deeply used in non-standard medicine. In this case, the method of using hemopuncture is used. The blood received from the patient, with several portions, is injected into the reflexogenic active points of the body by way under the skin. In essence, this method eliminates the neuroendocrine root causes of infertility. The duration of such therapy is about nine procedures.
• With bronchial asthma and allergies.
  We advise you to carry out the autohemotherapy procedure a little earlier than the allergen appears, or rather its effect on your body (that is, before the flowering period with hay fever). Before carrying out the procedure, it is necessary to know exactly what exactly causes such a reaction (to detect an allergen). A small amount of the allergen is mixed with the blood and injected into the patient.
With chronic fatigue syndrome.
We advise you to carry out a large procedure of autohemotherapy using ozone. In this case, the patient will be injected with about one hundred and fifty milliliters of blood, which will be pre-enriched with triatomic oxygen.

results

After the course of injections, patients undergo the following final results of the autohemotherapy procedure:

The effectiveness of this type of therapy is ambiguous, the best end results are observed with the combined use of vitamins and antibiotics, as well as other drugs and components.

The procedure itself will not replace the generally accepted treatment, which takes place in simple ways.

For example, with liver or kidney failure - hemosorption, hemodialysis.

At home

It is also possible to carry out this autohemotherapy procedure yourself according to the standard scheme. But, autohemotherapy itself should be carried out at home only in the presence of a doctor or the presence of medical skills.

You need to have simple practical skills in conducting subcutaneous, intramuscular and intravenous injections, as well as taking venous blood. All these activities are required to comply with sterility. The patient himself will not be able to carry out the autohemotherapy procedure, or rather it is undesirable, because it is quite difficult, because even for experienced doctors with extensive experience and skills, the procedure is difficult and time-consuming. Simple negligence can lead the patient to serious consequences, for example, post-injection abscesses, and other complications and side effects.

Before using the method, you need to consult a doctor, take into account the individual characteristics of your body, observe the indicated dosages, and also be aware of the presence of various kinds of chronic diseases.

In addition to the standard, other methods of the autohemotherapy procedure are not suitable for use at home.

Contraindications to autohemotherapy

Despite the safety of the autohemotherapy procedure, there are a number of contraindications to the autohemotherapy procedure:

Side effects

The autohemotherapy procedure takes only a couple of minutes, but with all this it is very well tolerated and, if carried out correctly, the likelihood of causing negative consequences is minimal.

These side effects include the following:

If the symptoms persist for a long time, and their increase, you should immediately contact an ambulance. In this case, you should immediately refuse to carry out the autohemotherapy procedure or reduce the volume of re-injected blood.
