How long does Hunan Xiangya test tube baby need?
Hunan Xiangya IVF is a reproductive medical technology provided by Hunan Xiangya Hospital, which can help many infertile couples realize their reproductive dreams. However, many people do not know much about the whole process and cycle of IVF. This article will elaborate how long it will take for Hunan Xiangya IVF from four aspects.
Aspect 1: Preliminary inspection and preparation
Before IVF, couples need to carry out a series of examinations to ensure that their physical condition and reproductive system function are normal. These tests include blood tests, hormone tests, ultrasound tests, etc. In addition, the doctor will evaluate the ovarian function and uterine condition of women to determine whether it is suitable for IVF. This stage usually takes about one month.
Once it is determined that IVF can be carried out, couples need psychological counseling and counseling to understand the risks and precautions in the whole process. This will help them prepare mentally and choose the appropriate treatment. This process usually takes 1-2 weeks.
Aspect 2: ovulation promotion and egg collection
Ovulation induction is one of the key steps in IVF treatment. By injecting hormone drugs, the ovary can produce more follicles and control the time of follicular development. This stage usually takes 10-12 days, and regular ultrasonic examination and blood examination are carried out to monitor the follicular development.
Once the follicle develops to the proper size, the doctor will arrange an egg collection operation. During the operation, doctors will use ultrasound guided fine needles to puncture the ovary and take out the mature eggs in the follicle. This operation is usually performed under general anesthesia and takes about 20-30 minutes.
Aspect 3: In vitro fertilization and embryo culture
The collected eggs will be fertilized in vitro with sperm in the laboratory to form a fertilized egg. This process usually takes several hours. The fertilized egg will continue to grow in the culture dish until it develops into an embryo. The time of embryo culture varies from case to case, usually 2-6 days.
During embryo culture, doctors will inject progesterone or other hormones for women to increase the possibility of implantation. Monitoring at this stage may require daily or two-day ultrasound and hormone testing.
Aspect 4: Embryo transfer and pregnancy
On the second to sixth days after embryo culture, doctors will transfer the best quality embryos back to the female uterus. This process is usually simple and does not require anesthesia. After embryo transfer, women need to rest for a period of time and continue to inject hormone drugs to maintain the implantation of embryos.
After about 9-10 days, women will have a blood HCG test to determine whether they are pregnant. If the pregnancy is successful, the formal pregnancy begins. Otherwise, the treatment plan needs to be re evaluated and the next step of treatment needs to be carried out.
summary
The whole treatment process of Hunan Xiangya IVF usually takes 2-3 months. This includes early examination and preparation, ovulation promotion and egg collection, in vitro fertilization and embryo culture, embryo transfer and pregnancy. Each stage requires close monitoring and doctor's guidance. Successful IVF treatment requires not only scientific and technical support, but also active cooperation and mental health of both spouses.
