Test tube babies in the Third Hospital of Peking Medical College: are there any side effects?

IVF technology is an assisted reproductive technology, which aims to help couples with reproductive problems achieve their reproductive aspirations. As one of the important technologies of the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University (the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University), IVF has attracted much attention. However, many people have doubts about whether IVF has side effects. This article will elaborate on the side effects of IVF from the medical point of view.

Physical and psychological side effects

In the process of IVF, ovulation promoting drugs are needed to promote the maturation of multiple follicles and increase the success rate of IVF. However, these ovulation promoting drugs may lead to ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), whose symptoms include abdominal distension, abdominal pain, vomiting and dyspnea. Although OHSS is rare, patients need to undergo strict screening before IVF to reduce the risk of OHSS.

The impact of IVF on couples' psychology cannot be ignored. Some couples may have psychological problems such as anxiety, stress and depression due to the long treatment process and highly stressful psychological state. As well as the impact on marriage and personal self-worth. In the process of IVF, communication and psychological support with professional psychological instructors are crucial.

In addition, IVF technology itself has no long-term side effects. Once the pregnancy is successful and a healthy baby is delivered, the normal growth and development of the baby is no different from that of a naturally conceived baby. Therefore, physical and psychological side effects are not universal, but vary from person to person.

Success rate and reasons for failure

The success rate of IVF is related to many factors, including female age, infertility reasons, egg and sperm quality, etc. Generally speaking, women under 35 years old have a high success rate. However, even under the most ideal conditions, the success rate of IVF cannot reach 100%.

There may be many reasons for failure. First, the low embryo implantation rate after the combination of egg and sperm may be due to poor embryo quality. Secondly, the patient's internal environment is not conducive to embryo implantation, such as insufficient or abnormal endometrial thickness. In addition, some patients may have abortion after embryo transfer or stop the development of early blastocysts. However, even if IVF fails in one cycle, couples can try again to improve the success rate of the next time.

Notes and suggestions for later stage

After the success of IVF, couples need to follow a series of precautions and suggestions to ensure the safety and health of the baby. For example, avoid overwork and strenuous exercise, keep a good attitude, have regular prenatal examination and use drugs as prescribed by doctors. In addition, couples also need genetic counseling to understand the potential risks of genetic diseases, so that early intervention and treatment can be carried out.

In general, the IVF technology of the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University has made remarkable achievements in solving the fertility problem. In addition to physiological and psychological side effects, IVF technology itself has no obvious side effects. Although the success rate is limited, couples can improve the success rate through multiple attempts. After success, compliance with precautions and recommendations is critical to the health of the newborn.

Therefore, the IVF technology of the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University is a safe and effective assisted reproductive method, which can help couples with reproductive problems realize their reproductive dreams.
