What population is IVF test tube baby suitable for?
In vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer (ET) have become one of the effective methods to treat infertility. The development of this technology enables couples who cannot conceive naturally to realize their dream of having their own children. So, which groups are IVF test tube babies suitable for? The following is a detailed description of age, oviduct function, male factors and genetic diseases.
1. Age
The reproductive capacity of women gradually decreases with age. Therefore, for women over 35 years old, IVF is a very suitable choice. This is because the egg quality of women at this age may decline, leading to a reduced chance of natural pregnancy. Through IVF technology, young and healthy donated eggs or regulated eggs can be used to improve the success rate of pregnancy.
In addition, for women over 40 years old, IVF is also a very effective solution. This is because the egg quality of women in this age group has declined significantly, and they can hardly conceive naturally. Through IVF technology, multiple donor eggs can be used for multiple fertilization to increase the chance of pregnancy.
2. Fallopian tube function
The fallopian tube is the key to natural pregnancy, which is responsible for delivering eggs to the uterine cavity for implantation. IVF test tube baby is an ideal choice for women who cannot conceive naturally due to abnormal fallopian tubes. Through IVF technology, eggs and sperm can be fertilized and developed in the laboratory, and embryos can be transferred to the uterine cavity at the right time, bypassing the abnormal fallopian tube.
IVF test tube baby is the only solution for those women whose fallopian tube function is lost due to fallopian tube obstruction or resection. These women can get the chance to conceive their own children through IVF technology.
3. Male factors
Male factor is one of the common causes of infertility. When there is a problem with the number, quality or mobility of male sperm, the chance of natural pregnancy will be significantly reduced. For these couples, IVF test tube baby is a very suitable choice.
IVF technology can improve the chance of pregnancy by using sperm donors with better sperm quality to fertilize. At the same time, for men with very few or no sperm, sperm extraction technology can also be used to extract sperm from testicles or urethra for fertilization and embryo transfer.
4. Genetic diseases
Some couples suffer from genetic diseases and are afraid to pass these diseases on to the next generation. For these couples, IVF test tube baby can provide a method for screening genetic diseases to reduce the risk of children's disease.
PGD (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis) technology can detect whether the embryo carries disease genes at the early stage of embryonic development, and select embryos without disease genes for transplantation. In this way, it can ensure that children will not suffer from genetic diseases and help couples realize their desire to have healthy children.
To sum up, IVF test tube babies are suitable for older people with abnormal fallopian tube function, male factors and genetic diseases. Through this technology, these couples can get the chance to have their own children and realize their desire to have children.
