However, IVF is not completely free of risks and side effects. When receiving IVF treatment, couples should fully understand the related risks and side effects and make wise decisions.
1. Drug side effects

These drugs may cause some side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, breast pain, mood fluctuations, etc. Some patients may also have ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), which is characterized by abdominal distension, abdominal pain, dyspnea and other symptoms. If the side effects are serious, the patient should seek medical advice in time.
In addition, women also need to inject human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) to help follicular development and ovulation. This injection may cause discomfort such as redness, swelling and itching at the injection site. Patients should strictly follow the guidance and supervision of doctors when using ovulation promoting drugs and injecting hCG.
2. Operation risk
The IVF procedure includes ovarian stimulation, egg collection and embryo transfer. These operations require surgery, and there are certain risks. For example, ovarian stimulation may lead to ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, egg collection may lead to bleeding, infection and other complications, and embryo transfer may lead to poor endometrial response and other problems.
In addition, IVF surgery also requires the use of needles, which has a certain risk of stab injury. Although the probability is low, patients and doctors still need to be highly vigilant.
3. Risk of multiple births
In IVF treatment, doctors often implant multiple embryos in the uterus in order to increase the success rate of pregnancy. However, multiple pregnancy will increase the health risks of pregnant women and fetuses. Multiple pregnancy is easy to lead to premature delivery, low birth weight and other problems, and it also increases the risk of hypertension, diabetes and other diseases for pregnant women. Therefore, when deciding on the number of embryos to be implanted, couples should fully communicate with doctors to weigh risks and success rates.
4. Psychological pressure
IVF treatment is a long process, which requires couples to go through repeated treatment and waiting, which creates certain pressure on the couple's psychology and emotions. Every failure may bring great disappointment and frustration, and the long-term treatment process may lead to psychological problems such as anxiety and depression. Therefore, couples should be psychologically prepared and actively seek psychological support and consultation before receiving IVF treatment.

Drug side effects, surgical risk, multiple pregnancy risk and psychological pressure are common problems in IVF treatment. Couples should fully communicate with doctors, clearly understand the relevant risks, and make decisions under the guidance of doctors.
