What preparations should be made before the implementation of 60 year old IVF?
IVF technology is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which aims to help couples who are difficult to conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams. With the continuous progress of technology and medicine, the current IVF technology can be applied to more people, including older couples. For a 60 year old couple, some preparations should be made before IVF, so as to ensure the smooth operation and maximize the success rate. Next, we will elaborate on it from four aspects.
Physical health
First of all, older couples should evaluate their health before considering IVF surgery. They need a comprehensive physical examination, including cardiovascular, respiratory, metabolic function and other aspects of the assessment. For people with some potential diseases or disease risks, they should receive appropriate treatment and adjust their lifestyle as soon as possible to ensure that their physical conditions can be well adapted and borne during IVF surgery.
Secondly, in the assessment of physical health, attention should also be paid to the quality and quantity of eggs in women. With the increase of age, the quality of female eggs gradually declines, which may affect the success rate of IVF surgery. Therefore, doctors may recommend that women receive ovarian stimulation treatment to improve the quantity and quality of eggs.
Finally, in the assessment of physical health, it is also necessary to assess the genetic status of the couple. Some genetic diseases may have a negative impact on the health and development of embryos. If couples are at risk of some genetic diseases, doctors may recommend them to carry out genetic counseling and genetic testing to reduce the risk of disease.
Psychological preparation
IVF surgery is a process full of hope and pressure for couples. Especially for 60 year old couples, they need to have enough psychological preparation to face possible failures and difficulties. They need to understand the principle, operation process and risks of IVF technology, and receive psychological counseling to cope with emotional fluctuations.
Couples also need to support and understand each other and jointly face various emotional changes in the process of IVF. They can participate in some professional psychological counseling courses or share their experiences and feelings with other couples who have experienced IVF.
Nutritional conditioning
In the IVF process, couples' bodies need to be optimally conditioned to improve the success rate of the operation. For women, they should eat a balanced diet and take in enough nutrients, including protein, vitamins, minerals, etc., to promote the normal development of ovarian function. In addition, excessive intake of caffeine and alcohol should be avoided, as they may have adverse effects on embryonic development.
For men, the diet should be balanced and diversified, and sufficient zinc, selenium and other trace elements should be taken to improve the quality and quantity of sperm. In addition, long-term exposure to high temperature environment, such as hot water bath and sauna, should be avoided, because high temperature will adversely affect the production and survival of sperm.
Select regular medical institutions and professional doctors
Finally, the key to ensure the success of IVF surgery is to select a regular medical institution and an experienced professional doctor. Couples can consult friends, relatives or search the Internet to learn about the reputation and professional level of different medical institutions, and choose their own hospitals. At the same time, doctors with rich experience and good reputation should be selected. They can develop personalized treatment plans and provide professional medical services according to the specific conditions of the couple.
In short, 60 year old couples need to make comprehensive preparations before IVF surgery. The first step is to assess the physical health, including psychological and genetic factors, and make appropriate treatment and adjustment. Secondly, psychological preparation and professional psychological guidance should be carried out. Thirdly, nutrition conditioning should be carried out to ensure the optimal state of the body. Finally, formal medical institutions and professional doctors should be selected to ensure the success of the operation.
