Cryo-Cell International, Inc., an umbilical cord blood stem cell bank, is now promoting a new service called C’elle. It offers women the chance to store the stem cells found in their menstrual fluid. The collection process is done by the client in their own homes using a menstrual cup. It’s then sent to Cryo-Cell’s laboratory, where it’s processed and stored for possible future use. In the future, these cells could potentially be used to treat some of the leading health issues for women, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes, breast cancer and (yes, ladies) even skin rejuvenation. C’elle is definitely a welcomed discovery in something that usually so unwanted.  The landmark discovery of C'elle menstrual stem cells is seismic in many ways because this is the first time that highly prolific and multipotent (able to differentiate into other cell types) adult stem cells have been harvested in such a painless, non-invasive and affordable manner as compared to other stem cell sources such as bone marrow, fat or adult peripheral blood that already have established histories of success in adult stem transplants.
