Does IVF have a sense of touch during implantation?
IVF babies are babies obtained through IVF assisted reproduction, which has caused many people's concerns in the process of in vitro growth. A curious question is whether IVF will have a sense of touch when it is implanted. This article will elaborate on this from four aspects: embryonic development, nervous system development, scientific experimental evidence and professional doctor's point of view.
embryonic development
The implantation of embryos is an important stage of the development of fertilized eggs, and also the beginning of the development of IVF in the mother's uterus. According to scientific research, the embryo does not form organs in contact with the outside world, including the skin and nervous system, at the pre implantation stage. Therefore, at this stage, IVF cannot feel any tactile stimulation.
In addition, in the preimplantation stage, the embryo did not form a complete nervous system, which is an important factor for IVF to have a sense of touch. The development of the nervous system takes time, including the formation of the brain and the process of connecting with other sensory organs.
Neurological development
The nervous system development of IVF mainly occurs in the post implantation stage. When the embryo is successfully implanted in the inner wall of the uterus, it begins to differentiate into various organs and tissues, and establish the basic neural network. However, in the early development of the nervous system, the baby's tactile sensation will not be very obvious.
The development of the nervous system takes a long time. During this period, the formation of the baby's neurons and synapses will lay the foundation for the subsequent tactile sensation. Therefore, from the time of implantation to the time when the baby can really feel the touch, it still needs to go through more development processes.
Scientific experimental evidence
Scientific experimental evidence plays an important role in answering the question of whether IVF will have a sense of touch during implantation. A recent study conducted experiments on tactile sensation using models. The research results show that before the embryo implantation, the baby cannot feel the touch before the neural system is immature.
In addition, there are many experimental evidences that there is no brain activity in the early stage of implantation. EEG records showed that there was no sign of brain activity in the embryo within weeks after implantation. This further supports the argument that IVF does not have tactile sensation during implantation.
Professional doctor's opinion
Professional doctors have their own views on whether IVF has a sense of touch. According to an obstetrician and gynecologist, IVF has no sense of touch when it is implanted. The doctor explained that in the early stage of embryo growth, their main task is to form organs and systems through their own development, rather than feeling external stimuli.
Doctors emphasized that IVF implantation generally occurred between 6 and 10 days after fertilization, when the embryo was far from developing to the stage of tactile sensation. Therefore, according to the doctor's opinion, IVF has no sense of touch when it is implanted.
Summary
In conclusion, IVF has no sense of touch when it is implanted. This is because in the process of embryonic development, the development of organs and nervous system that do not form tactile sensation before implantation has not been completed. This conclusion is further supported by scientific experimental evidence and the views of professional doctors. Therefore, IVF will not feel external tactile stimulation when it is implanted.
