Stem cell treatment & Turner syndrome

Written based on 13 research studies on PubMed, searched on 14 Nov 2026.

The claim

Posts online say that stem cell treatment helps with Turner syndrome.

Where research stands

We found 23 published papers on stem cell treatment and Turner syndrome. They were published between 1976 and 2025. None of them is a study in people. 2 were studies in animals, and 8 were only in cells in the lab. 3 papers are reviews that sum up other studies. 2 research projects on stem cell treatment for Turner syndrome are funded and still running.

What the studies found

We have not summed up these studies in words yet. The most important papers are listed under Sources.

Verdict

Unproven means: it was only tested in animals or cells, or there is too little or mixed data from people. How we rate claims
