Feasibility analysis of selecting test tube baby for hypertension patients
Hypertension is a common chronic disease, which has a certain impact on the quality of life and fertility of patients. IVF technology is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which can help couples who cannot conceive naturally achieve their reproductive aspirations. However, whether hypertensive patients can choose IVF needs to be comprehensively analyzed from many aspects.
Physical condition and pregnancy risk
Hypertension patients are usually accompanied by cardiovascular system abnormalities, and pregnancy will have an additional burden on the heart and vascular system. This causes hypertensive patients to face a higher risk of pregnancy complications during pregnancy, such as pre eclampsia, pregnancy induced hypertension, etc. Assisted reproductive technology and drug treatment are required during IVF, which may further increase the physical burden of patients. Therefore, patients with hypertension should consult their doctors before choosing IVF and make a comprehensive physical assessment.
However, the condition and constitution of different hypertensive patients are also different. Mild hypertension patients are relatively stable and in good health, so they can choose IVF. Patients with severe hypertension need to consider carefully, and it is recommended to control hypertension to a relatively stable level before IVF.
Effects of drug therapy on embryonic development
Many patients with hypertension need to take drugs for a long time to control their blood pressure. However, some drugs may have adverse effects on embryonic development. For example, ACE inhibitors and ARB drugs are considered to have certain toxic effects on embryonic development. If patients continue to use these drugs during IVF, they may have adverse effects on the healthy development of embryos.
Therefore, before choosing IVF, hypertensive patients need to discuss with their doctors the drugs currently being used, understand their impact on embryonic development, and adjust the drug use program as appropriate. Some drugs can be suspended before IVF to ensure the healthy development of embryos.
Reproductive risk and psychological pressure
IVF technology is not a 100% successful method, and the success rate is affected by many factors. Hypertension patients should pay attention to the reproductive risk when choosing IVF. First, age is an important factor affecting the success rate of IVF, and the success rate of older pregnant women is relatively low. Secondly, hypertension and its treatment may have a certain impact on the reproductive system function, thus affecting the success rate of pregnancy.
In addition to reproductive risk, hypertensive patients also face psychological pressure during IVF. IVF technology requires multiple medical operations, and patients need to endure long treatment and waiting. These processes may increase the psychological burden of patients and lead to psychological problems such as anxiety and depression. Therefore, before choosing IVF, hypertensive patients need to consider their own psychological tolerance.
Summary
To sum up, whether hypertensive patients can choose IVF requires comprehensive consideration of physical condition, the impact of drug treatment on embryonic development, fertility risk and psychological pressure. For patients with mild hypertension, IVF can be selected, but the decision needs to be made on the basis of consulting a doctor and conducting a comprehensive assessment. For patients with severe hypertension, it is recommended to control the condition to a more stable level before considering IVF. In any case, hypertension patients should fully understand the relevant information before choosing IVF, communicate with doctors in depth, and make appropriate decisions under the condition of mental health.
