Detailed explanation of steps and process of IVF rectangular case
IVF refers to the medical method of cultivating the fertilized egg to the appropriate stage of development and implanting it into the mother's uterus to achieve pregnancy and give birth to a healthy baby. The steps and process of the rectangular test tube baby will be introduced in detail below.
Initial diagnosis and assessment of patients
When couples encounter difficulties in childbirth, they first need to go to a professional IVF clinic for initial diagnosis. The doctor will have a detailed understanding of the couple's medical history, living habits and fertility intentions, and conduct a comprehensive physical examination, including gynecological examination, semen analysis of the man, etc. In addition, doctors may also require genetic testing and immunological tests to assess the fertility of both parties and possible genetic diseases.
On the basis of the evaluation, the doctor will give the individualized treatment plan for the couple, including the treatment method, medication plan and expected success rate.
Ovarian stimulation and egg collection
Before starting formal treatment, the woman needs to receive ovarian stimulation treatment to promote the development and maturation of follicles through drugs. Doctors will make specific medication plans according to personal conditions and treatment plans, and regularly monitor the number and maturity of follicles.
When the follicle develops to an appropriate stage, the doctor will perform an egg collection operation. The operation is usually carried out within 36 hours before the egg is discharged, and targeted sedatives and local anesthesia can be used. By puncturing the ovary, the eggs are taken out and stored in the culture medium to prepare for the next step of fertilization.
Sperm collection and fertilization process
The man needs to collect sperm during the ovarian stimulation of the woman. Usually, natural ejaculation, artificial ejaculation or semen donation can be selected. The collected sperm will be processed and centrifuged to obtain the best quality sperm.
The collected sperm and egg are fertilized in vitro in a culture dish, that is, the sperm is directly injected around the egg in the culture dish. After successful fertilization, the embryo will continue to develop for several days in the culture environment until it reaches the implantation stage.
Embryo transfer and follow-up observation
After the embryo reaches the implantation stage, the doctor will transfer one or more embryos with the most development potential into the mother's uterus. This process generally does not require anesthesia, and the embryos will be gently sent into the uterus using guide wires and catheters.
After embryo transfer, patients need to have a rest for a period of time and take medicine according to the doctor's instructions. About two weeks later, the doctor will conduct a pregnancy test to check whether the pregnancy is successful. If the pregnancy is successful, the patient needs to visit again regularly to monitor the pregnancy and protect the development of the embryo. If the pregnancy is not successful, the doctor will reassess the situation and formulate the next treatment plan.
Summary
The long case of IVF includes initial diagnosis and evaluation of patients, ovarian stimulation and egg collection, sperm collection and fertilization process, embryo transfer and follow-up observation. Through detailed evaluation and individualized treatment plan, help couples realize their reproductive dreams. However, IVF technology has certain risks and limitations. Patients need to fully understand the treatment process and possible risks, and fully communicate and cooperate with doctors.
