Definition and etiology of intrauterine adhesions
Uterine cavity adhesion, also known as intrauterine adhesions, refers to a disease in which abnormal adhesion occurs between the endometrium and the uterine wall. This disease usually occurs in women after uterine curettage, endometrial damage and inflammation. Other possible causes include uterine surgery, uterine infection, and endometriosis.
Uterine adhesions have a series of negative effects on women's reproductive health. First, intrauterine adhesions may lead to menstrual disorders, normal shedding of endometrium, moderate and severe hypomenorrhea, or even no menstruation. Secondly, intrauterine adhesions may also affect ovarian function, leading to ovulation disorders and infertility. In addition, intrauterine adhesions may also cause abdominal pain, sexual intercourse pain, irregular vaginal bleeding and other symptoms, which will bring troubles to the life and work of patients.
The treatment of intrauterine adhesions is relatively complicated, and at present, hysteroscopic surgery and assisted reproductive technology are mainly used to solve it. However, whether the patients after treatment can achieve a lasting effect remains to be further studied.
Success rate of test tube infants after intrauterine adhesion
Test tube baby is an effective means to treat infertility at present, and it is also a common choice for patients with intrauterine adhesions. However, because intrauterine adhesions may affect the implantation and development of embryos, the success rate of IVF is relatively low.
According to existing research data, the success rate of IVF in patients with intrauterine adhesions ranges from 30% to 60%. Among them, patients with mild adhesion have a higher success rate, while patients with severe adhesion have a lower success rate. In addition, age, ovarian function and other factors will also affect the success rate of IVF.
In order to improve the success rate of IVF, some hospitals use hysteroscopic surgery to remove and repair uterine adhesions before IVF in order to improve the intrauterine environment. This comprehensive treatment scheme can significantly improve the success rate of IVF, but there are still some risks and uncertainties.
Influence of intrauterine adhesions on infant health
Uterine cavity adhesion may have a certain impact on the health of infants. After the birth of IVF, premature delivery, low birth weight and pregnancy complications may occur. These complications are related to abnormal uterine morphology and internal environment changes caused by intrauterine adhesion.
In addition, some studies also found that IVF of patients with intrauterine adhesions may face an increased risk of genetic diseases. This may be related to chromosome abnormalities, abnormal embryonic development and other factors. Therefore, before IVF, doctors usually recommend patients to carry out gene screening to eliminate the risk of genetic diseases.
Although intrauterine adhesions may have a certain impact on infant health, there is still a lack of large-scale research data or relevant clinical trials to determine the specific impact. Therefore, when choosing IVF treatment, the risk of uterine cavity adhesion should be fully considered, and full communication and discussion should be conducted with professional doctors.
Summary
Uterine cavity adhesion is a common disease that affects women's reproductive health, and may lead to menstrual disorders, infertility and other problems. Although intrauterine adhesions have a certain impact on the success rate of IVF, hysteroscopic surgery and comprehensive treatment can improve the success rate of IVF. Uterine cavity adhesion may have some impact on the health of infants, including premature delivery, low birth weight and increased risk of genetic diseases. However, due to the lack of large-scale research data, the specific impact of intrauterine adhesions still needs further research and discussion.
