Test tube baby: a method to help a 60 year old woman achieve fertility
With the continuous progress of modern medical technology, test tube baby (IVF) has become an effective method to help couples who cannot conceive naturally to achieve fertility. Even a 60 year old woman has the opportunity to realize her dream of becoming a mother through IVF technology. Next, we will introduce the process of the 60 year old woman's IVF birth from four aspects.
Hospital selection: looking for a professional IVF hospital
First of all, it is very important to choose a professional IVF hospital. In China, Peking Union Medical College Hospital and Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine are two very well-known and professional IVF hospitals. These hospitals have world-class equipment and professional medical teams, and can provide the most advanced IVF technology for 60 year old women.
When choosing a hospital, the old lady needs to consider the hospital's reputation, success rate and service quality. It is better to have an interview with the doctor to understand all aspects of the IVF process and make decisions based on the doctor's professional opinions.
Physical examination and assessment: ensure that the physical condition is suitable for IVF
Before IVF, a 60 year old woman needs to carry out a series of physical examinations and assessments to ensure that her physical condition is suitable for the process. These tests include blood tests, endocrine tests, uterine and ovarian tests, etc.
Due to her age, the old lady may have some problems in her physical condition, such as diabetes, hypertension, etc. Therefore, the doctor needs to comprehensively assess the old woman's physical condition, ensure that she can withstand the physical pressure during the IVF process, and decide whether additional treatment and preparation are needed.
Hormone therapy and egg collection: promoting ovulation and collecting healthy eggs
Next, the old woman needs hormone treatment to promote ovulation and increase the number of eggs. The doctor will make a personalized hormone treatment plan according to the old woman's physical condition.
After hormone therapy, doctors will use special surgical methods to collect eggs. This operation is usually carried out under local anesthesia. The doctor will insert a slender tube into the ovary and extract eggs. The healthy eggs collected will be used in the subsequent IVF process.
Embryo transfer and pregnancy monitoring: successful pregnancy and safe pregnancy
Finally, doctors will combine sperm and eggs in the laboratory to produce embryos. Next, the doctor transplanted the embryo into the old woman's uterus in order to successfully conceive.
After successful pregnancy, the doctor will monitor the old woman during pregnancy. The old woman needs to follow the doctor's instructions and carry out regular prenatal and physical examinations to ensure the safety of the fetus and herself. The doctor may prescribe some auxiliary drugs for the old woman to help her through a difficult pregnancy and ensure the healthy growth of the fetus.
Through the above steps, the 60 year old woman can realize her fertility desire and become a happy mother through IVF technology.
summary
IVF technology provides opportunities for 60 year old women to have children. By selecting a professional hospital, conducting physical examination and evaluation, receiving hormone treatment and egg collection, and finally carrying out embryo transfer and pregnancy monitoring, the old woman can successfully realize her dream of fertility with the help of a doctor. Of course, due to the limitation of age, the old lady needs to pay more attention to her health and pregnancy to ensure the safety of herself and the fetus.
