Will the success rate of second-generation IVF babies increase?
With the continuous progress of science and technology, the second-generation IVF technology is also developing. People have been looking forward to the improvement of the success rate of the second-generation IVF technology. So, will the success rate of second-generation IVF babies increase with the progress of technology? This article will elaborate on this from many aspects.
Advanced embryo screening technology
On the one hand, the improvement of the success rate of second-generation IVF benefited from advanced embryo screening technology. Traditional IVF technology can only select healthy embryos for implantation by observing the appearance of embryos, but this method often has some errors. Now, with the development of gene detection and embryonic genomics, doctors can conduct a comprehensive screening of the embryo's genes, which is more accurate in selecting embryos for implantation, and improves the success rate.
For example, China's famous Zhejiang University Affiliated Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital has made a major breakthrough in the second generation of IVF embryo screening. They introduced PGS (embryo chromosome screening), PGD (single gene genetic disease screening) and other technologies, which effectively reduced the risk of embryo implantation failure and poor maternal and obstetric outcomes.
Promotion of minimally invasive surgery technology
In addition to the progress of embryo screening technology, minimally invasive surgery technology is also one of the important factors to improve the success rate of second-generation IVF. In the past, IVF surgery required an open operation, which not only caused great trauma to patients, but also made it difficult to repair the wound of the uterus. However, with the promotion of minimally invasive surgery, second-generation IVF surgery has gradually become a minimally invasive surgery under laparoscopy or hysteroscopy.
Peking Union Medical College Hospital is one of the top obstetric and gynecological hospitals in China. They have made great achievements in minimally invasive surgery. Through minimally invasive surgery, patients' surgical trauma is greatly reduced and their postoperative recovery is faster, which helps to improve the success rate of second-generation IVF surgery. At the same time, minimally invasive surgery also enables doctors to observe and deal with the internal structure and conditions of the uterus more clearly, improving the surgical effect.
Optimized drug treatment scheme
Drug therapy plays a vital role in the process of second-generation IVF. In the past, the side effects of drugs used in IVF were relatively large, which could easily cause patients' physical discomfort and may lead to the failure of the whole process. However, with the optimization of drug treatment program, patients are now more comfortable with second-generation IVF treatment.
Taking the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital affiliated to Fudan University as an example, they provided a personalized drug treatment program to achieve the best effect according to the specific situation of patients by adjusting the type and dosage of drugs. This personalized treatment scheme not only reduces the side effects of drugs, but also promotes the growth of follicles more accurately and improves the success rate.
Summary
In conclusion, it is possible to improve the success rate of second-generation IVF, and it is being realized continuously. The advancement of advanced embryo screening technology, minimally invasive surgery technology and optimized drug treatment scheme have provided strong support for the success rate of second-generation IVF technology. However, more scientific research and practice are needed to continuously improve the second-generation IVF technology to further improve the success rate.
