 Does IVF transplantation cause pain?



Pain during IVF transplantation

IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which helps couples who are difficult to conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams. In the process of IVF transplantation, people often worry about whether there will be pain. This article will elaborate on the pain in IVF transplantation from four aspects.

1. Egg collection process

The first step of IVF transplantation is to collect female eggs. Usually, doctors will obtain eggs when the ovary develops to a certain extent. In this process, local anesthesia or intravenous anesthesia is usually used. Under anesthesia, the patient will not feel any pain. The doctor will puncture the ovarian ovulation sac and collect the eggs through appropriate instruments. The whole process usually takes only ten minutes, and the patient will only feel some slight discomfort.

2. Embryo culture

The collected eggs will combine with sperm and become embryos. This process does not require the patient's participation and does not feel any pain. The embryo will generally continue to develop in the culture dish until the appropriate time for transfer is reached.

3. Migration preparation

In the preparation stage, the doctor will transfer the cultured embryos into the patient's uterus. This process is usually completed in the surgical operating room, and generally does not require general anesthesia. The doctor will use colposcopy to guide the transfer tube or catheter to place the embryo in the uterine cavity. Although this process may cause a little discomfort, it generally does not cause severe pain. Sometimes, the doctor may advise the patient to use some pain relievers to alleviate the discomfort.

4. Recovery after transplantation

After embryo transfer, patients need to rest in bed for a period of time, usually about 30 minutes to 1 hour. There is no pain in this process, and the patient only needs to keep calm. After that, patients can leave the hospital to continue their daily life, follow the doctor's advice and take appropriate rest. To sum up, the pain during IVF transplantation can be controlled and will not bring obvious pain to patients. Anesthesia reduces pain during egg collection. The process of embryo culture and embryo transfer itself does not require the patient's participation, so there is no pain. In the recovery phase after transplantation, the patient only needs to remain calm without obvious pain. Therefore, couples can safely accept IVF transplantation and enjoy the fertility benefits brought by technology.
