What burden does Xuchang test tube baby have on the body?
IVF technology is an assisted reproductive technology. More and more couples in Xuchang and other places have chosen to use this technology to achieve their reproductive aspirations. However, there may be some burdens on the body during IVF. This burden will be elaborated from four aspects below.
1. Side effects of hormone therapy
The first step in IVF is hormone therapy to stimulate the development of eggs. This treatment can lead to a series of side effects, including mood fluctuations, weight changes, abdominal distension, breast discomfort, etc. In addition, hormone therapy may increase ovarian stimulation and lead to multiple oocyte maturation, which may lead to ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). OHSS is a serious complication, whose symptoms include abdominal distension, abdominal pain, vomiting and dyspnea. Although these side effects are usually temporary, they still cause discomfort during treatment.
2. Risk during operation
The second step in the IVF process is egg collection, which requires minor surgery. Although this is a routine operation, there are still some risks. Possible risks include infection, bleeding, ovarian or uterine damage, etc. After the operation, it may take a period of rest and rehabilitation to return to normal life and work.
In addition, another risk is the process of embryo transfer, which is the last step of IVF. Embryo transfer may lead to irregular menstruation, vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain and other uncomfortable symptoms. However, these symptoms are usually temporary and will not affect the chances of most couples to successfully conceive.
3. Psychological pressure and mood fluctuation
The IVF process may be a long and anxious journey for couples. In the process of trying to conceive, every step can be a challenge and disappointment. Successful pregnancy or failure will bring great emotional impact to couples. Both the hormonal fluctuations brought about by the IVF process itself and the disappointment brought about by each negative result may have a negative impact on the couple's psychology.
In addition to the psychological pressure of individual couples, the social pressure around them may also bring them additional burdens. For example, the expectations and accusations of family, friends or society may increase the stress and anxiety of couples.
4. Financial burden
The IVF process is an expensive medical technology, which requires certain financial investment. In addition to the cost of hormone therapy and surgery, other costs in assisted reproductive technology, such as embryo culture and freezing, need to be paid. These expenses may exceed the financial affordability of some couples, increasing their financial pressure.
To sum up, Xuchang's IVF process does bring some burden to the body. The side effects of hormone therapy, risks during surgery, psychological pressure and emotional fluctuations, and financial burden are all challenges that couples may face. However, for those couples who wish to have their own children, these burdens are worth bearing, because IVF technology provides them with the opportunity to achieve their reproductive aspirations.
