How to carry out pre-test items for test tube babies
IVF is an assisted reproductive technology, which helps couples who cannot conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams through in vitro fertilization. However, before IVF, it is very important to check the physical condition of both spouses. This article will introduce how to carry out the pre-test items of test tube babies.
1. Male examination items
Male examination mainly includes semen analysis, reproductive system examination and genetic disease screening.
First, men need to conduct semen analysis to assess the quality and quantity of sperm. This can be analyzed by collecting one or more semen samples. At the same time, the examination of the reproductive system can include physical examination of the testis and epididymis, as well as testicular ultrasound examination. These tests can determine whether there are structural abnormalities in the reproductive system.
In addition, men need to be screened for genetic diseases before IVF. This can be done by collecting blood samples for genetic testing to understand whether there is a risk of carrying genetic diseases.
2. Female examination items
Women's examination items mainly include endocrine examination, ovarian function assessment, uterine examination and genetic disease screening.
First, women need an endocrine test to assess whether their hormone levels are normal. This can be achieved by taking blood for hormone level detection. At the same time, ovarian function assessment can determine the growth of follicles and ovulation through ultrasonic monitoring.
In addition, the uterus can be examined by ultrasound to determine whether the thickness and shape of the endometrium are suitable for implantation. In addition, women also need to carry out genetic disease screening before IVF to understand whether there is a risk of genetic disease.
3. Inspection items of the couple
Couples also need to carry out some common inspection items, including hepatitis B, hepatitis C, syphilis, HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases screening. These viruses can be transmitted through blood, and will have adverse effects on the health of embryos and fetuses. Therefore, it is very important to screen STDs before IVF.
In addition, couples also need to screen for chromosomal abnormalities, which can be achieved by collecting blood samples for genetic testing. This is very important for detecting whether there is a risk of genetic disease.
4. Select the appropriate hospital
It is also very important to choose a professional and powerful hospital before the IVF pre examination project. For example, the IVF Center of XX Hospital is a hospital specializing in the research and application of IVF technology. Such a hospital has a professional medical team, complete facilities and advanced technology, which can provide couples with comprehensive inspection and treatment.
In a word, it is an important step to ensure the success of IVF to carry out the pre-test items. Through the examination of men, women and couples, we can assess whether their physical conditions are suitable for IVF. In addition, it is also very important to choose a professional hospital. I hope this article will be helpful to couples who are planning to carry out IVF.
