IVF: What situations can IVF be considered?
IVF, namely artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer in assisted reproductive technology, is a way to help couples who cannot conceive naturally to achieve their reproductive aspirations through medical means. As a professional reproductive hospital, Hefei Provincial Hospital provides high-quality IVF services for infertile couples. The following details which conditions can be considered for IVF from four aspects: age, egg quality, sperm quality and disease factors.
1. Age
The age of women is one of the key factors affecting the success rate of natural pregnancy. With the growth of age, the number and quality of female eggs will gradually decline. Therefore, if women over 35 years old, especially those over 40 years old, fail to conceive naturally for a long time, they can consider IVF technology to achieve their fertility aspirations.
In addition, if women have premature aging, polycystic ovary syndrome and other reasons leading to ovarian dysfunction before menopause, and cannot ovulate normally, test tube babies can also be considered.
2. Egg quality
Egg quality is one of the important factors affecting the success rate of pregnancy. Some women have problems such as egg maturation, low egg quality, and low ovarian function, which increase the difficulty of natural pregnancy. In these cases, IVF technology can select high-quality sperm and eggs for fertilization through in vitro fertilization to improve the success rate of pregnancy.
In addition, if you are suffering from genetic diseases, chromosome abnormalities and other conditions, you can use IVF technology to carry out embryonic genetic diagnosis, screen healthy embryos for transplantation, and reduce the risk of transmission of genetic diseases.
3. Sperm quality
Sperm quality is one of the key factors affecting the success rate of pregnancy. Some men suffer from poor sperm quality, low sperm quantity, abnormal sperm morphology and other conditions, which lead to difficulties in natural pregnancy. In these cases, IVF technology can select high-quality sperm for fertilization and transplantation through sperm quality separation, sperm and egg in vitro fertilization and other ways to improve the success rate of pregnancy.
In addition, if you are suffering from genetic diseases, chromosome abnormalities and other conditions, you can use IVF technology to carry out embryonic genetic diagnosis, screen healthy embryos for transplantation, and reduce the risk of transmission of genetic diseases.
4. Disease factors
Some disease factors have obvious influence on the success rate of natural pregnancy, such as uterine malformation, endometriosis, fallopian tube blockage, etc. In these cases, IVF technology can bypass the pathological parts of the uterus or fallopian tube, transfer the fertilized embryos to the appropriate location, and improve the chance of successful pregnancy.
In addition, in the case of chromosome abnormalities, serious genetic diseases and other conditions, embryo genetic diagnosis can also be carried out through the test tube baby technology to exclude diseased embryos for transplantation and reduce the risk of transmission of genetic diseases.
Summary
In a word, the IVF technology of Hefei Provincial Hospital is applicable to older women, couples with egg or sperm quality problems, and couples with some disease factors. The IVF technology can solve the fertility problems of infertile couples and realize their fertility aspirations.
