IVF time
IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which can help couples who are difficult to conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams. However, with the growth of women's age, the probability of pregnancy gradually decreases, so many 35 year old couples will consider IVF. The following will explore how long it takes for 35 year old IVF babies from different aspects.
Initial diagnosis and examination
First, 35 year old couples need to go to a professional IVF institution for initial diagnosis. In the initial diagnosis, the doctor will have a detailed understanding of the couple's fertility status and give appropriate examinations, such as semen analysis, tubal patency inspection and endometrial thickness measurement. These examinations can help doctors understand the couple's fertility disorders and choose appropriate treatment plans. The whole process of initial diagnosis and examination usually takes about one month.
Next, couples need to conduct more in-depth examinations, such as hormone level testing and genetic screening. These tests can help to assess the fertility risk of couples and the risk of potential embryo abnormalities. This inspection phase usually takes more than 3 months, because some test results need to be collected and analyzed for a long time.
Treatment plan and cycle
Once the initial diagnosis and examination are completed, the doctor will formulate a treatment plan suitable for the couple. For women, she may need to take ovulation promoting drugs to increase the number of eggs, and conduct regular ultrasound monitoring of follicular development. For men, if the semen quality is not ideal, semen treatment and sperm selection can also be carried out. The treatment period is usually 2 to 3 months, depending on the individual situation of the couple.
During the treatment cycle, women also need to have an egg collection operation. This is a minimally invasive operation. The eggs are taken out under the guidance of ultrasound, and then combined with male sperm in vitro to form embryos. This process is usually completed within one month. Next, the embryo will be cultured to the appropriate stage of development, and then transferred to the female uterus through embryo transfer technology. The whole embryo transfer process takes 1 to 2 weeks.
Waiting for results and follow-up
After the completion of embryo transfer, couples need to wait to see if the pregnancy is successful. The waiting period is usually 2 to 3 weeks. If the pregnancy is successful, the couple will continue to receive prenatal examination and pregnancy care. If the pregnancy fails, the couple can choose to try IVF again, which usually requires several months of rest and physical recovery.
In general, the time of 35 year old IVF is a relatively long process, which usually takes about 6 months to 1 year. This is mainly because the fertility of 35 year old women is relatively low, which may require more investigation and treatment to improve the pregnancy success rate. However, the situation of each couple is different, and the specific time will vary according to individual conditions.
Summary
For 35 year old couples, IVF needs to consider many time factors. The initial diagnosis and examination usually take about one month, and the in-depth examination may take more than three months. The treatment plan and cycle are usually 2 to 3 months, including egg collection surgery and embryo transfer. Waiting for results and follow-up also takes weeks to months. To sum up, the whole process of 35 year old IVF may take about 6 months to 1 year. However, different couples may have different situations, and the specific time depends on individual conditions and treatment responses.
