Effects of IVF on women's bodies

IVF is an assisted reproductive technology that helps couples who cannot conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams through in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. Although IVF has brought hope to infertile couples, this process will also have some impact on women's bodies.

1. Hormone regulation

During IVF, women need a series of hormone therapy to promote follicular development and ovulation. These treatments will have a certain impact on women's bodies. First of all, women will receive ovulation promoting drugs, which may cause discomfort such as flushing, breast pain and emotional fluctuations. Secondly, in order to accurately grasp the time of ovulation, women need to carry out multiple blood, urine and B ultrasound examinations, as well as injection of human chorionic gonadotropin and other drugs. These examinations and treatments may cause physical discomfort and fatigue. In addition, in order to improve the success rate of pregnancy, women also need to inject ovulation stimulating hormone before taking eggs, which will increase the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. This symptom can cause abdominal distension, abdominal pain, nausea and other discomfort, and in severe cases, dyspnea and nosebleed can also occur. Therefore, hormonal regulation is a direct impact on the female body during IVF.

2. Physical trauma

Assisted reproductive technology in the process of IVF needs to be carried out through intrauterine operation or vaginal puncture, which may cause some trauma to the female body. For example, ovarian puncture during egg retrieval may cause pelvic bleeding, infection, pain and other complications. In the process of embryo transfer, there may also be intrauterine bleeding and cervical pain and other discomfort. Although these complications are relatively rare, women still need to pay attention to them.

3. Psychological pressure

The influence of IVF on women's psychology cannot be ignored. The long-term treatment process, ovulation cycle monitoring, side effects of hormone regulation and other issues may produce certain psychological pressure on women. Women may face the possibility of treatment failure and worry about their own bodies. These pressures often cause psychological problems such as anxiety and depression, and even have a certain impact on the relationship between husband and wife. Therefore, in the process of IVF, appropriate psychological guidance and support are crucial to women's physical and mental health.

4. Increased risk of pregnancy complications

After successful IVF pregnancy, women may face an increased risk of pregnancy complications. Research shows that compared with natural pregnancy, IVF pregnancy has an increased risk of complications such as premature delivery, placenta previa and pregnancy induced hypertension. These complications have a certain impact on women's health and the development of the fetus. To sum up, although IVF has solved the fertility problem for infertile couples, it will also have a certain impact on women's bodies. Hormone regulation, physical trauma, psychological stress and increased risk of pregnancy complications are the main aspects. Therefore, before IVF, women should fully understand these effects, make psychological and physical preparations, and carry out reasonable treatment and nursing under the guidance of doctors to ensure the health of the body and fetus.
