IVF is becoming more and more popular
IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology. It takes out female eggs and male sperm, carries out in vitro fertilization in the laboratory, and then implants the fertilized eggs into the female uterus to realize the process of pregnancy and delivery. In recent years, IVF has become more and more popular for many reasons. This article will explain it from four aspects: the change of social concept, the development of regenerative technology, the increase of professional medical services and the improvement of the success rate.
1. Change of social concept
With the continuous development and diversification of social concepts, people's concepts of family and fertility are also changing. In the past, the traditional family concept generally believed that childbearing was a normal natural process, and some people even regarded childbearing as an obligation. However, with the diversification of the concept of marriage and family, more and more couples began to choose IVF technology to achieve their reproductive aspirations.
First, some couples may face infertility problems, which may be caused by female fallopian tube blockage, male sperm quality problems and other reasons. IVF technology provides a chance for these couples who cannot conceive through natural means to realize their dreams.
Secondly, some couples may not be able to arrange their childbearing time in the traditional way due to work pressure or other reasons. IVF technology can help them to give birth at the right time and better balance the needs of work and family.
Finally, with the improvement of women's social status and the success of women's career development, more and more women began to delay childbearing in order to pursue personal career. The IVF technology provides these women with a choice to delay childbirth and protect fertility.
2. Development of regeneration technology
The continuous development of IVF technology is also one of the reasons for its popularity. With the progress of medical science and technology, IVF technology has become more mature and reliable.
First of all, doctors are becoming more and more skilled in the operation technology of key steps such as egg collection, fertilization and embryo culture, which reduces the operation risk and uncertainty. At the same time, laboratory equipment and technology have also been continuously upgraded, improving the success rate of IVF.
Secondly, the R&D and innovation of assisted reproductive technology continue to promote the progress of IVF technology. For example, the application of in vitro fertilization and embryo selection technology has greatly improved the success rate of IVF. In addition, the development of gene editing and embryo gene detection technology also provides couples with more choices, avoiding the inheritance of genetic diseases.
In China, some well-known infertility hospitals, such as Peking Union Medical College Hospital and Shanghai Fudan University Affiliated Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, have advanced IVF technology and equipment, making more and more couples choose to receive IVF treatment in these hospitals.
3. Increase of professional medical services
With the popularization of IVF technology, more and more hospitals and doctors begin to provide relevant professional medical services. This provides more choices and convenience for couples.
First of all, more and more hospitals have started to set up infertility diagnosis and treatment centers equipped with professional doctors and equipment. The IVF related services provided by these centers include the examination and diagnosis of infertility, the formulation of IVF treatment plans, embryo transfer and pregnancy monitoring.
Secondly, some hospitals also provide psychological counseling and social support services to help couples cope with the pressure and confusion during childbirth.
In addition, the development of IVF technology has also prompted the rise of relevant training institutions. More and more nurses and technicians have received professional training, which has improved their technical level and professionalism and provided more guarantee and quality assurance for the operation of IVF.
4. Improvement of success rate
The success rate of IVF technology is also one of the important reasons for its popularity. With the development of medical technology and the improvement of medical services, the success rate of IVF continues to increase.
First of all, doctors have higher and higher requirements for the quality of eggs and sperm. Choosing the best fertilized eggs for transplantation has improved the success rate. At the same time, personalized treatment plans are formulated according to the specific conditions of the couple, which improves the treatment effect.
Secondly, the development of related technologies has also promoted the success rate of IVF. For example, the extensive application of embryo selection technology can screen out more high-quality embryos and improve the implantation and pregnancy rate after transplantation.
In addition, doctors, based on their research and experience in IVF technology, continuously improved the operation technology and treatment scheme, further improving the success rate of IVF.
summary
As an assisted reproductive technology, IVF has become more and more popular in recent years. The change of social concept, the development of regenerative technology, the increase of professional medical services and the improvement of success rate are the reasons for its popularity. With the continuous progress of medical science and technology, IVF technology will play an increasingly important role in solving the problem of infertility and meeting individual reproductive needs.
