Derived from both the mother and father's genes, it is theorized that the mother's immune system does not recognize the proteins derived from the husband's part of the genome as foreign and attacks the growing fetus. LIT (Leukocyte Immunization Therapy) is a treatment that helps prevent this immune reaction. It encourages the woman's body to produce special antibodies that create a more welcoming environment in the uterus for the growing embryo or fetus. These antibodies reduce the harmful effects of the immune response, making it friendlier for the baby's development.

The administration of Lymphocyte Immunization Therapy (LIT) typically results in minimal and temporary side effects, which may include:

• A slight sensation at the needle prick, similar to an insect bite or a mild pinch.
• Some pressure and mild discomfort as the liquid enters the skin.
• A mild warmth at the site of the LIT treatment, which will diminish within a few hours.
• Temporary redness at the site of the LIT treatment, which will diminish within a few days.
• Itchiness for approximately two weeks at the site where the LIT treatment is administered.
• The possibility of developing small bumps at the site of the LIT treatment a few days later, which will diminish over time.
• The possibility of experiencing a small bruise at the site of the LIT treatment a few days later, which will diminish over time.
• Over the course of our 20 years of experience, we have not observed any significant or major side effects associated with Lymphocyte Immunization Therapy (LIT).

Rest assured, Lymphocyte Immunization Therapy (LIT) is generally not associated with significant pain. There is no need to be overly concerned. Here is a detailed description of what you can expect during the procedure:

• Needle Prick: When the needle enters your skin, you may experience a minor sensation similar to a slight pinch or an insect bite. This momentary sensation is typically the most noticeable aspect of the injection.
• Pressure or Mild Discomfort: As the immunization solution is injected beneath your skin, you may feel a mild sense of pressure or discomfort at the injection site. However, please note that this sensation is usually temporary and subsides quickly.
• Warmth: Following the injection, you may experience a gentle warmth at the injection site. This warmth is a result of increased blood flow, facilitating the circulation of immune cells.

Keep in mind that the process can be unpredictable, and there may be delays. On average, crossing the border from Mexico to the USA can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 4 hours, depending on factors such as holidays, sports events, store sales, or concerts in both Mexico and the USA. Planning for potential delays and allowing for a buffer time is always a wise decision to make your travel experience more hassle-free.

• Passports for all the individuals crossing the border.
• Optional: Global Entry or SENTRI cards for all individuals crossing the border. These programs grant you the advantage of bypassing the regular waiting lines at the border.
• During your appointment, wear sleeveless clothes.
• After your appointment, remember to bring lightweight clothing with long sleeves and loose fits to protect yourself from the sun.
• A phone with roaming or international travel. Check with your phone carrier for international travel. To ensure uninterrupted connectivity during your time in Mexico, it's advisable to contact your phone carrier and activate international roaming. While many regular plans include roaming services in Mexico, it's important to activate it with your carrier and configure your phone accordingly.
