Treatment cycle and schedule of IVF in Suzhou
Test tube baby is an assisted reproductive technology that helps infertile couples achieve their reproductive aspirations. Suzhou, as one of the important IVF treatment centers in China, provides high-quality IVF services. This article will elaborate on the arrangement of treatment cycle, drug use, operation and postoperative monitoring.
1. Arrangement of treatment cycle
The IVF treatment cycle usually includes ovulation guidance, egg collection, sperm treatment, in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. The whole cycle generally lasts 4 to 6 weeks, and the specific time varies according to individual conditions.
First, the doctor will conduct relevant examinations on women to confirm that they are suitable for IVF treatment. Then, according to the menstrual cycle of women, make medication plans to promote ovulation through the use of drugs. Before and after ovulation, the eggs and endometrium were examined to determine the best time for fertilization.
Next, an egg collection operation is performed. Doctors use ultrasound guided fine needles to extract eggs and conduct sperm collection at the same time. After in vitro fertilization, the collected eggs and sperm are cultured into embryos. Finally, select the best quality embryos for transplantation into the female uterus.
2. Drug use
During IVF treatment, women need to use some drugs to promote ovarian ovulation and endometrial growth.
Ovulation promoting drugs: Commonly used ovulation promoting drugs include human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). These drugs can stimulate ovarian ovulation and increase the quantity and quality of eggs.
Endometrial preparation drugs: Before transplantation, women need to use estrogen, progesterone and other drugs to regulate the growth and preparation of endometrium. These drugs can increase the thickness of endometrium and the success rate of embryo implantation.
3. Operation
Egg collection and embryo transfer are two important steps in IVF treatment.
Egg collection operation: This is a minimally invasive operation, usually performed under general anesthesia. Doctors use ultrasound guided fine needles to puncture the ovary and extract the eggs. The operation usually lasts 20-30 minutes and requires several hours of rest after the operation.
Embryo transfer: Embryo transfer is usually carried out 3 to 5 days after egg collection. Doctors use catheters to place embryos in the womb. This operation does not need general anesthesia, and is generally completed in local anesthesia or painless delivery.
4. Postoperative monitoring
After IVF treatment, postoperative monitoring is required to ensure the recovery of the patient's body and the successful implantation of the embryo.
Postoperative rest: After the operation, women need to stay in bed for several hours or days to avoid strenuous activities and reduce the pressure and stimulation of the body.
Drug treatment: The doctor will prescribe some oral or injection drugs to help improve the embryo implantation rate and maintain the patient's luteal function.
Regular inspection: patients need to have regular inspection according to the doctor's requirements, including blood inspection, ultrasonic inspection, etc., to monitor the development of embryos and the patient's physical condition.
Summary
The IVF treatment cycle in Suzhou generally includes treatment arrangement, drug use, surgical operation and postoperative monitoring. During the whole treatment cycle, patients need to take ovulation promoting drugs, conduct egg collection and embryo transfer operations, and take postoperative rest and drug treatment according to the doctor's recommendations. The schedule and specific plan of these steps will vary according to the situation of each patient. Through the guidance and treatment of professional doctors, IVF technology has brought hope and opportunities to infertile couples.
