FAQs
What is placenta encapsulation?
Placenta encapsulation is the practice of preparing the placenta after birth, usually by dehydrating and grinding it, and placing it into capsules. It is often offered by doulas and dedicated placenta specialists.
What should I ask a placenta encapsulation provider?
Ask about their training and certification, where and how they prepare the placenta, how they handle sanitation and transport, and what is included in the price. Also ask your hospital or birth center about its policy for releasing the placenta.
Is placenta encapsulation safe?
The practice is not regulated and research on its benefits is limited, so talk with your doctor or midwife before deciding. A careful provider will be glad to explain their safety practices.
