Placenta is a passive item.
Effects[]
- Grants one full Red Heart container when picked up.
- Isaac has a chance to regenerate a
Half Red Heart every time the in-game timer hits a new minute (00:01:00, 00:02:00, etc).
Heals 1 additional
Red Heart when picked up.
Notes[]
- The regeneration can happen multiple times in the same room, so there is no need to move between rooms to continue regeneration.
However, regeneration does not occur when standing in a
Crawl Space.
- Regeneration will only occur when Isaac has Red Heart containers or something equivalent:
-
Keeper's and
Tainted Keeper's coin hearts will regenerate, one coin at a time.
Bone Hearts regenerate like red hearts.
- Consequently, characters with no applicable health --
???,
The Lost,
Dark Judas,
Tainted Bethany,
Tainted Judas, and
Tainted Lost -- do not benefit from the effect.
-
Synergies[]
Blood Oath: With enough patience, health can be safely restored each floor by waiting in the starting room.
Gnawed Leaf: Regeneration works while turned to stone, allowing Isaac to become invincible and regenerate while in any room.
Sanguine Bond: Can be used indefinitely with placenta’s regen. Also works with normal sacrifice rooms
Interactions[]
Maggy's Bow: No effect on regen.

Trivia[]
- A Placenta is an organ that forms from the mother's uterus during pregnancy that supports the unborn child during development until it is expelled during childbirth. In some cultures, it is a common practice for the mother and/or child to eat the expelled placenta.
- This, like many other things Isaac does, is medically inadvisable.
