What is the effect of IVF pouch on the body?
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a medical assisted reproductive technology, which is widely used in infertile couples. This technology has made a significant breakthrough in the success rate, but artificial pregnancy and embryo transfer may have some impact on mothers and embryos. This article will discuss the effects of IVF feeding on the body from different perspectives.
1. Impact on female body
The influence of IVF pouch on women's body needs to be considered in two stages: egg collection and embryo transfer.
In the process of egg collection, tubal stimulation and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) are common risks. OHSS may cause abdominal distention, nausea, vomiting and other uncomfortable symptoms, and even life-threatening complications in serious cases. In addition, ovarian stimulation may bring a certain burden to the ovary, leading to other complications such as ovarian cysts.
Embryo transfer has relatively little impact on women's bodies. Within two weeks after transplantation, there may be some mild abdominal discomfort and breast pain, similar to the discomfort of pre menstrual period. However, these symptoms usually subside after blastocyst implantation. The side effects of IVF pouch on the body mainly focus on the egg collection stage, and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome is a problem that needs special attention.
2. Effects on embryos
The developmental environment of IVF embryos in vitro may be different from that of the uterus during natural pregnancy. Although scientists have tried to simulate the test tube environment similar to the uterine environment, there are still some minor differences.
These differences may have some impact on the development of embryos. The study found that IVF babies have relatively low birth weight and a high risk of premature delivery. In addition, some studies also found that IVF may be more likely to suffer from some diseases related to embryonic development, such as chromosome abnormalities and childhood cancer. However, it should be noted that these risks are not absolute. Most IVF babies can develop and grow normally.
3. Impact on family economy
In vitro baby feeding is an expensive process. The whole process requires multiple egg collection and embryo transfer, and all kinds of inspection and drug costs are high expenses. For most families, bearing the financial burden of IVF may have some impact.
In addition, some insurance companies may not bear the cost of IVF feeding. This means that couples may need to spend their savings or loans to pay for the related expenses. For those families with ordinary economic conditions, the financial pressure of IVF may cause a certain burden to the family.
4. Impact on mental health
The process of IVF may have a certain impact on the psychological health of couples. Long term infertility often brings depression, anxiety and fragile emotions to couples. The process of IVF feeding may increase the psychological pressure between couples, especially during the waiting period after embryo transfer.
In addition, the success rate of IVF is not 100%, and couples may need to experience multiple attempts to succeed. Every failure can be a great blow to the couple. Therefore, when carrying out IVF, the psychological health of couples needs to be paid enough attention.
summary
In vitro baby feeding has a certain impact on individual physical, economic and mental health. Women may face the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome in the process of egg collection, and the development environment of IVF embryos may be different from that of natural pregnancy, which brings some potential risks. At the same time, the economic cost of IVF pouch may impose a certain burden on the family's financial situation. In addition, the whole process will also have a certain impact on the couple's mental health. Therefore, before IVF, individuals need to fully understand and consider these potential impacts, and make decisions under the guidance of doctors.
