How many days is the treatment course of IVF night acupuncture?
IVF refers to the completion of fertilization and embryo culture in vitro through assisted reproductive technology, and the transfer of embryos into the mother's uterus, helping couples who cannot conceive naturally realize their dreams of fertility. Night acupuncture is a part of the IVF process. Through the injection of hormone drugs, the ovaries can discharge multiple eggs, increasing the success rate of fertilization and embryo transfer. So, how many days does the treatment of IVF night acupuncture usually take? The following is a detailed description of the preparation stage, injection stage, monitoring stage and egg retrieval stage.
Preparation phase
Before the night acupuncture treatment, the doctor will conduct a series of preliminary examinations and evaluations. This includes assessing the ovarian function and uterine condition of women, as well as sperm quality of men. Generally speaking, the preparation phase may take 1-2 weeks. During this period, doctors will develop personalized treatment plans according to individual conditions, including giving appropriate hormone drugs to promote ovarian function and matching the appropriate time for egg retrieval and embryo transfer.
Injection phase
The injection phase is an important part of IVF night acupuncture treatment. During this period, women need to inject hormone drugs according to the doctor's instructions. The injection frequency and drug dose will be adjusted according to individual conditions, and blood tests and ultrasound examinations will be carried out regularly during the injection to monitor the development of follicles. Generally speaking, the injection phase usually takes about 7-12 days, depending on individual conditions.
The injection of hormone drugs may cause some side effects, such as abdominal distension, breast pain, mood fluctuations, etc. During the injection period, the patient needs to closely cooperate with the doctor's guidance, inject drugs on time and in quantity, and return to the hospital regularly for inspection.
Monitoring phase
Monitoring in the injection phase is the key to ensure the smooth progress of night acupuncture treatment. Doctors will regularly conduct blood tests and ultrasound examinations to observe the growth and number of follicles, and adjust the dose of hormone drugs. In the monitoring phase, inspection is generally required every 2-3 days. Doctors will determine the best time for follicular development according to the monitoring results.
Egg retrieval stage
The egg retrieval stage is the last step in the IVF night acupuncture treatment. Generally speaking, the best time to take eggs is when the follicle develops to a certain size. At this time, the doctor will determine the date of egg retrieval according to individual conditions and perform egg retrieval in the operating room. The egg retrieval operation generally requires local anesthesia, without stopping work. The whole operation is usually completed within 20-30 minutes.
After the eggs are taken, the embryos will be cultured and evaluated in the laboratory, and the best quality embryos will be selected for transfer. Embryo transfer is usually carried out within 2-6 days after egg retrieval, and the specific time will depend on the doctor's advice and the patient's individual situation.
To sum up, the treatment course of IVF night acupuncture usually requires 1-2 weeks of preparation, 7-12 days of injection, 2-3 days of monitoring and 20-30 minutes of egg retrieval. The duration of the whole course of treatment will vary according to individual conditions and the internal regulations of the hospital. Before IVF treatment, the patient should consult the doctor in advance to understand the specific treatment schedule and strictly cooperate with the doctor's treatment guidelines and precautions.

The preparation phase generally takes 1-2 weeks, the injection phase usually takes 7-12 days, the monitoring phase carries out an inspection every 2-3 days, and the egg retrieval operation takes 20-30 minutes.
