Test tube baby is a technical achievement of Anhui Medical University
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is an assisted reproductive technology that can help couples who cannot conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams. As one of the well-known medical institutions in China, AnMed University also provides IVF technical services. However, whether there are risks and side effects in IVF is one of the concerns. The following will elaborate on this from several aspects.

1. Drug risks and side effects
IVF needs ovulation promoting drugs to stimulate the ovaries to release multiple eggs to increase the chance of pregnancy. However, these drugs may cause some side effects, such as headache, nausea and abdominal distension. In addition, drugs may lead to the occurrence of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS), which is a serious complication, with symptoms including abdominal pain, dyspnea and decreased urine output.
However, during IVF treatment, Anyi University will conduct individualized regulation according to the physical condition, ovarian response and other factors of each patient to reduce the probability of drug risks and side effects in patients.
2. Operation risk
The core steps of IVF are egg retrieval and embryo transfer. There may be some risks in both procedures. Egg retrieval may lead to infection, bleeding or ovarian damage and other complications, while embryo transfer may lead to cervical tear or infection and other problems.
However, AnMed has an experienced medical team that strictly follows the operating specifications, so it can minimize the risk of patients when implementing these operations.
3. Psychological pressure
IVF treatment is a long and arduous journey for couples, which needs to go through the process of uncertainty and constant attempts. This may bring great psychological pressure and emotional distress to couples, and even lead to depression and anxiety.
However, the safety medical conference provides psychological support and counseling services for IVF patients to help them cope with emotional fluctuations and stress, so as to enhance their psychological resilience.
4. Success rate and repetition risk
The success rate of IVF treatment is a matter of great concern. Despite the continuous progress of technology and the increasing success rate, there is still a certain risk of failure. At the same time, some couples may need multiple attempts to successfully conceive, which may increase the cost of treatment and psychological pressure.
In addition, even after successful pregnancy, IVF may still face some health problems, which is related to the mother's age, egg quality and other factors.
To sum up, IVF treatment has certain risks and side effects, including drug risks and side effects, surgical risks, psychological stress and repeated risks. However, as a formal medical institution, the University has a professional medical team and rich experience to minimize these risks. Couples should fully understand and communicate with doctors when choosing IVF treatment, and jointly develop appropriate treatment plans.
