Relationship between cervical erosion and test tube infant failure

Cervical erosion is a common gynecological disease, which does not directly lead to the failure of IVF, but it may have a certain impact on the success rate of IVF. The following is a detailed description from the background information, impact mechanism, medical measures and other aspects.

background information

Cervical erosion is a manifestation of cervical columnar epithelial cell disease, which is common in women of childbearing age. According to research data, about 15% to 20% of women have cervical erosion during their childbearing period, and some of them may need IVF technology to achieve their fertility aspirations.

IVF is an assisted reproductive technology, which transfers embryos into the mother's uterus after in vitro fertilization and embryo culture to achieve pregnancy and fertility. However, cervical erosion may have an impact on the success rate of IVF.

Impact mechanism

The mechanism that cervical erosion may affect the success rate of IVF is as follows:

First, cervical erosion will lead to increased secretion of cervical mucus, making it difficult for the embryo to enter the uterine cavity smoothly during the transfer process. This will increase the difficulty of IVF embryo implantation, thus affecting pregnancy results.

Secondly, cervical erosion may lead to relaxation of the internal opening of the cervix, increasing the possibility of embryo retention in the cervical cavity after embryo transfer, reducing the chance of embryo retention, and thus reducing the success rate.

In addition, cervical erosion may lead to chronic inflammatory reaction, further affecting the stability of the intrauterine environment and the good development of embryos.

The effect of preventing cervical erosion on IVF

In order to prevent the impact of cervical erosion on IVF, the following measures can be taken:

First, women who have been diagnosed with cervical erosion should be treated in time. At present, common treatment methods include electrocoagulation, frostbite therapy and laser therapy, which can effectively reduce erosive lesions and reduce the impact on test tube babies.

Secondly, at the stage of IVF transplantation, doctors can improve the success rate of implantation of embryos into the uterine cavity by selecting appropriate transplantation time, using catheter assisted technology and other methods.

In addition, keeping good living habits and strengthening the improvement of self immunity can also reduce the incidence of cervical erosion to a certain extent.

Summary

Cervical erosion does not directly lead to the failure of IVF, but it may have a certain impact on the success rate of IVF by increasing the difficulty of embryo implantation into the uterus, increasing the possibility of embryo retention in the cervical cavity and affecting the stability of the environment in the uterus. Therefore, by treating cervical erosion in time, adopting appropriate transplantation strategies and maintaining good living habits, we can effectively prevent the impact of cervical erosion on IVF and improve the success rate.
