Factors Influencing the Success Rate of IVF
IVF is an assisted reproductive technology for implanting IVF embryos. For many couples who cannot conceive naturally, IVF is the hope to realize their reproductive dreams. However, the success rate of IVF is not fixed and is affected by many factors. The following will introduce which factors can improve the success rate of IVF from different aspects.
Patient's age
The age of women is one of the important factors that affect the success rate of IVF. The reproductive capacity of women gradually declines with the increase of age, especially after the age of 35. From the age of 30, the risk of women having difficulty in conceiving began to increase, and by the age of 40, the probability of success had been significantly reduced. Therefore, carrying out IVF early can improve the success rate. In addition, the age of men also has an impact on fertility and embryo quality, but the impact is smaller than that of women.
The number and quality of eggs of young women are generally better, which can better respond to hormone therapy and generate more healthy embryos. Therefore, for older women, more IVF cycles may be needed to improve the success rate.
In addition, the health status of patients will also affect the success rate of IVF. Patients with chronic diseases, uterine malformations, polycystic ovary syndrome and other diseases may face greater difficulties and risks.
Hormone therapy and high-quality embryos
Hormone therapy is a commonly used auxiliary technology in IVF, which can improve the pregnancy rate by promoting follicle growth and egg development. Reasonable hormone therapy can help adjust the endocrine status of patients and increase the quality of eggs.
In addition, in the process of IVF, it is also crucial to select high-quality embryos for implantation. High quality embryos have high implantation and survival ability, which improves the success rate of IVF. Through embryo screening and evaluation techniques, such as embryo morphological evaluation, chromosome detection, etc., the most potential embryos can be selected for implantation.
Some professional IVF hospitals, such as the Reproductive Medicine Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital and the Reproductive Medicine Center of Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, all have advanced hormone therapy and embryo evaluation technology, which can provide better IVF assisted reproductive services.
Lifestyle and eating habits
Lifestyle and eating habits also have a certain impact on the success rate of IVF. Bad habits such as wearing tight clothes, sitting for a long time, smoking and drinking may affect blood circulation and reproductive function. Proper exercise, reasonable diet, smoking cessation and alcohol restriction and other healthy lifestyles can improve the physical condition and increase the success rate of IVF.
Mental state and support
Psychological status is critical to the success rate of IVF. Negative emotions such as anxiety, tension and depression will affect the endocrine status and immune function of patients and reduce the probability of pregnancy. Therefore, maintaining a good psychological state and a positive attitude is crucial to the success of IVF.
In addition, getting support from family, friends and professional medical staff can also help patients get through the difficult process of IVF and increase the probability of success.
Summary
The success rate of IVF is affected by many factors, including the patient's age, hormone therapy and embryo quality, lifestyle and eating habits, as well as psychological status and support. Young patients, reasonable hormone treatment scheme, selection of high-quality embryos, healthy lifestyle and positive attitude all contribute to improving the success rate of IVF. At the same time, some authoritative medical institutions in China provide advanced technical equipment and professional medical teams, which can provide better services and provide strong support for patients to realize their reproductive dreams.
