Why Jenny McCarthy Turned to Therapeutic Plasma Exchange
The former 'The View' co-host previously discussed her decision to pursue therapeutic plasma exchange.
In September, McCarthy discussed her decision to pursue therapeutic plasma exchange during an appearance on Dr. Jill Carnahan's "Resiliency Radio" podcast.
The procedure involves removing blood plasma and replacing it with another fluid, typically albumin or donor plasma, before returning the blood cells to the patient.
McCarthy explained that she began exploring the treatment after trying numerous approaches to address her symptoms.
"I refer to myself as a hard nut to crack," she said while discussing her decision.
Therapeutic plasma exchange is an established treatment for certain medical conditions, but its use for generalized detoxification or mold-related symptoms is not a standard, proven treatment. McCarthy's reported improvement reflects her personal experience rather than evidence that the procedure is effective for those purposes.
Fans React to Jenny McCarthy's Health Update

"I would so do this but getting an IV on me is insanely impossible most tries," one Instagram user wrote.
Another commenter described undergoing chemotherapy and expressed frustration while comparing their medical experience with McCarthy's treatment.
