Hi

I understand your concern.

Stem cell treatment is still under research in mental retardation.

It has no such good outcome.

Still in India i do not think so any hospital carry out stem cell transplantation for mental retardation.

You have to contact best psychiatrist and he well guide you further.
Cost will different as per condition but still in India it is not possible.

There are research for autism is also in research.

Still have a query then feel free to ask.

Thank you.

Take care.
