Placenta Encapsulation
Many women who have opted for placenta encapsulation describe it as a meaningful part of their postpartum recovery.
Why Encapsulate My Placenta?
While much of the evidence around the benefits of placenta encapsulation is anecdotal, it comes from the women who’ve been on this journey before you and who have attributed this practice as part of a healthy and nourishing postpartum experience. Placenta encapsulation is believed to have benefits that range from increased energy and milk supply, to a decrease in postpartum mood disorders and an easier transition for your stress hormones. These benefits have not been proven, and the CDC has advised that placenta capsule ingestion should be avoided after contaminated capsules were linked to a newborn’s Group B Strep infection, so please discuss it with your healthcare provider before deciding.
