Breakthrough in IVF technology
IVF technology, also known as assisted reproductive technology, is a medical technology that can help couples who cannot conceive naturally achieve their reproductive aspirations. With the continuous development of science and technology, IVF technology has also made breakthroughs and progress. Now let's look at some major breakthroughs in IVF technology from different perspectives.
1. Breakthrough in embryo cultivation technology
The core of IVF technology is embryo cultivation and transfer. The breakthrough of embryo cultivation technology has greatly improved the success rate of IVF. In the past, scientists could only put a fertilized egg into a petri dish for observation and select a suitable embryo for transplantation. However, breakthroughs in recent years have enabled scientists to assess and screen embryos more accurately. For example, screening technology based on gene testing enables couples to avoid the spread of genetic diseases and improves the success rate of IVF.
In addition, the breakthrough of embryo cultivation technology also includes the improvement of culture medium, which can better simulate the intrauterine environment and provide a more suitable environment for embryo development. By using the improved culture medium, the quality of IVF embryo development has been significantly improved, thus increasing the chance of successful pregnancy.
2. Breakthrough in frozen embryos
The breakthrough of frozen embryo technology has also brought significant improvement to the success rate of IVF technology. The frozen embryo technology allows the surplus embryos to be frozen for transfer in future cycles. This means that couples can try multiple pregnancies in different cycles only by taking eggs once. In addition, frozen embryos can not only increase the success rate of IVF, but also provide couples with more flexible choices to adapt to their life and work plans.
Modern frozen embryo technology adopts advanced freezing methods, such as liquid nitrogen freezing and frozen embryo ultrafast freezing. These methods can better protect the integrity and viability of embryos, thus increasing the implantation rate of embryos after thawing.
3. Breakthrough in preparation of intrauterine mucosa
The preparation of intrauterine mucosa is a key link in the IVF transplantation cycle and an important factor in the success rate of IVF. In the past, oral or vaginal administration was usually used for preparation of intrauterine mucosa, but the effect was poor. However, breakthroughs in recent years have enabled scientists to more accurately control the preparation of uterine mucosa.
At present, the preparation of intrauterine mucosa usually adopts hormone therapy, such as progesterone, to promote the thickening and preparation of intrauterine mucosa. In addition, there are some new drugs and technologies, such as the use of growth factors to promote the growth and repair of endometrium. These breakthroughs make the preparation of intrauterine mucosa more controllable, thus improving the success rate of IVF.
4. Successful cases of IVF technology
There are countless successful cases of IVF technology, and many couples have realized their reproductive dreams through this technology. The following are some successful cases of IVF in real hospitals:
Case 1: XX hospital successfully helped a couple realize their IVF dream in 2019. After precise embryo cultivation and transplantation, the couple successfully conceived and gave birth to a healthy baby.
Case 2: A young woman in another hospital finally became pregnant after experiencing multiple IVF cycles. The woman experienced several stages of embryo cultivation and transfer, and finally successfully conceived in one transfer cycle, and successfully gave birth to a healthy baby.
These successful cases not only give couples hope, but also prove the reliability and maturity of IVF technology.
summary
Through the above breakthroughs, IVF technology has made remarkable progress in recent years. The improvement of embryo culture technology, the application of frozen embryo technology and the breakthrough of intrauterine mucosal preparation have all improved the success rate and predictability of IVF technology. At the same time, real successful cases have also proved the effectiveness and reliability of IVF technology. The breakthrough of IVF technology provides a feasible choice for couples who are eager to become parents, helping them realize their desire to have children.
