Necessity of IVF
In vitro fertilization (IVF) in assisted reproductive technology (ART) has been controversial. In this article, we will elaborate the necessity of IVF from several aspects.
Social needs
First of all, the emergence of IVF meets the needs of society. With the increasing aging of the population, many couples have encountered the problem of fertility difficulties. No matter physiological factors or other reasons, IVF has become a choice for them to realize their parent-child dreams. Nationwide IVF hospitals, such as Peking Union Medical College Hospital and Shanghai Jiaotong University Medical College Affiliated Pediatric Hospital, have provided professional consultation and operation for these families.
Secondly, the promotion and popularization of IVF has also played an important role in promoting the population development in some regions. For example, some economically underdeveloped places have low population density and low birth rate due to the restriction of natural environment. The IVF technology can provide a solution to increase the number of newborn population and promote the development of local economy and society.
Family happiness
IVF can not only meet social needs, but also bring family happiness to many couples. Children are the crystallization of love between couples. For many couples, a family without children is incomplete. IVF technology gives infertile couples the opportunity to realize their reproductive aspirations, thus realizing their family dreams.
In addition, IVF technology has brought some additional benefits. For example, some couples suffer from hereditary diseases and are afraid of inheriting the disease to their children. Through the genetic screening of test tube babies, healthy embryos can be selected for implantation, thus reducing the spread of genetic diseases. This is a blessing for couples and a major advantage of IVF technology.
scientific progress
The emergence of IVF has promoted the development of assisted reproductive technology, and IVF technology has continued to improve, providing technical support for research in other related fields. For example, in the field of fertility medicine, the success rate of IVF has gradually increased, providing valuable experience for other infertility treatments.
In addition, IVF also provides convenience for genetic research. Through the research on IVF embryos, scientists can deeply understand the genetic mechanism of human beings, provide reference for the treatment of gene related diseases, and promote the development of genetics.
summary
In conclusion, IVF is of great necessity in meeting social needs, achieving family happiness and promoting scientific progress. It has not only solved the reproductive difficulties of many couples, but also promoted the development of assisted reproductive technology and related fields. Although there are still some disputes about IVF technology, its significance and great potential have been fully proved in practice.
