Can IVF sequelae be avoided?
The development of IVF technology has realized the fertility dream for infertile patients. However, there may be some sequelae in the process of IVF. Although the occurrence of sequelae cannot be completely avoided, a series of ways and measures can be taken to minimize and avoid the occurrence of these sequelae.
Optimize the operation process of IVF
In the process of IVF operation, ovulation induction, oocyte retrieval, fertilization and embryo transfer are required. By optimizing technology and process to reduce the trauma and risk of operation, the occurrence of sequelae can be reduced. First, select appropriate hospitals and professional teams, especially doctors and laboratory personnel who are proficient in relevant technologies. For example, the Reproductive Medicine Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital has an excellent professional team and advanced equipment to provide safe and reliable IVF services for patients.
Secondly, precisely control the drug use and operation time. Doctors need to carry out individualized treatment plans according to the specific conditions of patients to reduce drug side effects and operational risks. Reasonable drug dosage and monitoring of follicular growth and luteal function can avoid hyperstimulation and ovarian overreaction.
In addition, it is also important to improve the quality of the laboratory and the standardization of operating technology. Strictly control the culture environment, embryo evaluation and operation specifications, and reduce the impact of human factors on sequelae.
Pay attention to IVF pregnancy and newborn care
The pregnancy and newborn stage of IVF are high risk stages of sequelae. Therefore, it is very important to give more attention and care to pregnant women and newborns. First of all, regular prenatal examination is required during pregnancy to find and deal with the complications in a timely manner. Pregnant women with IVF need to pay attention to special precautions in taking medicine, rest and daily life.
In addition, babies also need special care after birth. Provide a good growth environment and scientific feeding, so that infants can grow up in a healthy state. Regular follow-up and pediatrician follow-up are also important means to reduce the incidence of sequelae.
In addition, the parents of IVF babies also need to pay special attention when caring for and educating their children, give them more care and psychological support, and help them build healthy self-identity and self-esteem.
Genetic testing and embryo selection
IVF technology has effectively controlled the spread of genetic diseases. Through genetic testing and embryo selection, the incidence of some genetic diseases can be greatly reduced. Through genetic consultation and gene testing, we can assess the risk of patients and families, and avoid the risk of embryo transfer of diseased gene carriers. For example, Renji Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine provides embryo chromosome abnormality detection to help patients select healthy embryos for transplantation.
In addition, the introduction of emerging gene editing technologies, such as CRISPR-Cas9, can accurately edit embryonic genes, repair or delete pathogenic genes, thus reducing the occurrence of sequelae. However, gene editing technology is still in further research and exploration. At present, there are still ethical and safety issues, which need careful decision-making and supervision.
Maintain peace of mind and moderate exercise
Peace of mind has an important impact on the occurrence of sequelae in IVF. Emotional fluctuations and stress may have a negative impact on the patient's body and embryo. Therefore, it is particularly important to maintain a peaceful and positive attitude.
Moderate exercise is also critical to maintaining physical health and mental balance. Regular and moderate exercise can help patients reduce stress and anxiety, promote blood circulation and cardiopulmonary function, and improve physical fitness and immunity.
To sum up, although the occurrence of IVF sequelae cannot be completely avoided, the occurrence of these sequelae can be minimized and avoided as far as possible through comprehensive measures such as optimizing the operation process, paying attention to pregnancy and newborn care, genetic testing and embryo selection, as well as maintaining a calm mind and moderate exercise, and bringing more hope and gospel to infertile patients.
