A bone marrow transplant (BMT) deals with the introduction of healthy stem cells while the unhealthy bone marrow is replaced. The aim is to restore the capacity to produce healthy blood cells in the patient. These stem cells can either be collected from the patient himself or herself (called an autologous transplant) or from a donor (called an allogeneic transplant). The new healthy cells are infused into the patient's bloodstream, where they migrate into the marrow and commence production of blood cells in good health.

Another important consideration is that traveling post- BMT requires meticulous planning since a patient will be having a compromised immune system. Let's break down the essentials. 

• Time: Traveling is generally advised against at least in the first 6-12 months after a bone marrow or stem cell transplant, with international travel being discouraged in particular. This first 100 days after the transplant are very important, with increased risks of infections. The full recovery of the immune system can take up to a year or more. 
• Medical: Before travel is planned, it should be conditioned with the transplant team or doctor. They will be better able to advise on your individual case and any travel recommendations. They will also advise you on precautions and vaccinations.
• Infection Risk: The post-transplant patients are susceptible to infections; therefore, the germs have to be avoided. That is to say, you should keep away from crowded places, be well-groomed, and be careful about food and water safety.

If travel is to be done after bone marrow transplant, strictly adherence to some instruction is warranted.

• Vaccinations: Some vaccinations may be needed and should be given; however, live vaccines are generally avoided in transplant patients. Your physician will suggest appropriate and safe vaccines. 
• Travel Insurance: Since medical treatment abroad can be costly, getting a good travel insurance is very crucial. Share your medical history with the insurance company, as some insurance policies may mention exclusions for transplant recipients. 
• Travel Precautions: Rigorously maintain your hygiene when it comes to food and water. Avoid insect bites at all costs. Protect yourself against sun exposure. Carry all necessary medications and medical documents.
