What precautions does hysteroscopy have for test tube babies?
In recent years, IVF technology has gradually become an option for infertile couples. Before IVF, doctors usually recommend hysteroscopy to evaluate the endometrium and exclude other possible infertility factors. However, hysteroscopy also requires patients to pay attention to some matters before and after surgery, which will be described in detail from four aspects below.
Preoperative preparation
Before hysteroscopy, patients need to make relevant preoperative preparations. First, preoperative examinations, such as blood routine, liver and kidney function, blood type, etc., are needed to ensure that the patient's physical condition is suitable for surgery. At the same time, the patient also needs to inform the doctor in advance whether there is a history of drug allergy to avoid adverse reactions during the operation. In addition, women cannot have hysteroscopy during menstruation and pregnancy, so they need to choose a suitable time for surgery.
Within 24 hours before operation, patients need to pay attention to their diet and try to avoid eating spicy and stimulating food to reduce the possibility of gastrointestinal discomfort. Sufficient rest should be kept before operation to reduce mental and physical fatigue. For patients with anxiety, psychological counseling can be properly carried out to maintain a good attitude.
Precautions during operation
During hysteroscopy, patients need to pay attention to the following aspects. First, general anesthesia is required before operation, so the patient needs to fast food and water in advance. At the same time, keep good posture with the guidance of the doctor during the operation so that the doctor can carry out the examination smoothly. There will be some pain during the operation, but it is usually acceptable. The patient should cooperate with the doctor to keep relaxed.
During the operation, other operations under hysteroscopy may be required, such as endometrial sectioning, myomectomy, etc. The patient should know about the relevant surgical risks and consequences in advance, and give full authorization to the doctor. After hysteroscopy, the patient needs to rest for a while, and can walk on the ground only after the anesthetic gradually recedes.
Postoperative care
After hysteroscopy, patients need some postoperative care. First, patients need to pay attention to the cleaning and disinfection of wounds to avoid infection. On the first night, gently clean the wound with warm water, but do not use soap or liquid medicine. At the same time, pay attention to the dryness of the wound and avoid using alcohol containing disinfectant. If the wound has bleeding, swelling or redness, seek medical advice in time.
Avoid heavy physical activity and sexual life after operation to avoid wound dehiscence or infection. At the same time, pay attention to diet, try to eat light and digestible food, and take more food rich in vitamins and proteins, which will help to repair and recover wounds. There may be some discomfort after the operation, such as abdominal pain, nausea, etc. This is a normal physiological reaction, which will generally gradually alleviate in a few days.
Other precautions
In addition to preoperative preparation and postoperative care, patients also need to pay attention to some other matters. First of all, when choosing hospitals and doctors for hysteroscopy, we should choose formal professional hospitals and experienced doctors. Consult others' opinions and experience to understand the reputation and reputation of hospitals and doctors.
Secondly, patients should maintain good living habits and eating habits, which will help improve the recovery speed during and after surgery. Avoid unhealthy lifestyles such as overeating and staying up late, and maintain a good attitude and positive mental state, which is conducive to the postoperative effect.
In conclusion, as an important examination before IVF, hysteroscopy should pay attention to preoperative preparation, intraoperative precautions, postoperative care and other related matters for patients. Only by doing well in these details can we ensure the safe and smooth operation and provide strong support for the success rate of IVF.
