How to reduce the risk of premature birth of test tube babies
The development of IVF technology has enabled many infertile couples to realize their desire to have children. However, IVF babies have a relatively high risk of premature birth, which has a certain impact on the health of infants. In order to reduce the risk of premature birth of test tube babies, we can consider and take measures from the following four aspects:
1. Select appropriate hospitals and doctors
When selecting IVF hospitals and doctors, we need to focus on the professional level of hospitals and the experience of doctors. High quality hospitals and doctors can provide more comprehensive and personalized medical programs to reduce the risk of infants. For example, the Reproductive Medicine Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital has accumulated rich experience and technology in the field of IVF, and is able to formulate appropriate treatment plans for different causes and circumstances.
At the same time, the allocation of hospitals and doctors is also critical. The first-class medical equipment and technology, as well as the professional team, can provide better monitoring and care to reduce the risk of premature delivery.
2. Conduct a comprehensive physical assessment and laboratory examination
Before IVF treatment, doctors will conduct a series of physical evaluations and laboratory tests on couples to understand potential risk factors and health conditions. These assessments and examinations can help doctors develop more suitable treatment plans and increase the possibility of successful treatment.
For example, women can know their blood sugar, blood pressure, endometrial thickness and other indicators through blood tests, as well as whether there are problems such as endometriosis. Men can know their sperm quantity and quality through semen analysis. These assessments and examination results will help doctors better grasp the treatment process and reduce the risk of premature delivery.
3. Reasonably adjust lifestyle
During IVF pregnancy, the mother's lifestyle has a certain impact on embryonic development and the risk of premature delivery. Therefore, reasonable adjustment of lifestyle is very important to reduce the risk of premature delivery.
First of all, pregnant women need to carry out prenatal examination regularly to know their health status during pregnancy, and take proper exercise and rest according to the guidance of doctors. Reasonable exercise and rest can keep pregnant women healthy and reduce the risk of premature delivery.
Secondly, reasonable diet is also the key. Pregnant women should try to eat balanced nutrition, increase the intake of fruits and vegetables, protein and cellulose, and reduce the intake of high sugar, high fat and high salt foods. This can improve the health of the fetus and reduce the risk of premature delivery.
4. Pay attention to emotional regulation and mental health
IVF is a long and uncertain process, which often requires both husband and wife to bear huge psychological pressure. Therefore, paying attention to emotional regulation and mental health is also an important factor to reduce the risk of premature delivery.
Couples can relieve stress and anxiety by taking psychological counseling courses, seeking family support, and sharing experiences with others. At the same time, some studies have shown that a positive and optimistic attitude and a good psychological state help to improve the success rate of IVF and reduce the risk of premature delivery.
Summary
In order to reduce the risk of preterm birth of test tube babies, it is very important to select appropriate hospitals and doctors, carry out comprehensive physical assessment and laboratory examination, reasonably adjust lifestyle, and pay attention to emotional regulation and mental health. Through these comprehensive measures, we can ensure the health and safety of infants to the maximum extent, and realize couples' reproductive dreams.
