How test tube baby test results affect follow-up treatment
IVF is a kind of assisted reproduction technology, which is used to cultivate fertilized eggs in the laboratory through in vitro fertilization technology, and implant selected embryos into the mother to help pregnancy. In the whole process of IVF, the examination results play a vital role. The examination results can help doctors assess the health status of embryos and the risk of genetic diseases, and make decisions on follow-up treatment according to the examination results.
1. Influence of examination results on embryo selection
In the process of IVF, the examination results are one of the bases for selecting suitable embryos for implantation. Through embryonic genetic examination and chromosome abnormality screening, doctors can assess the health status of embryos, including chromosome abnormalities, genetic diseases, etc. If the examination results show that the embryo has chromosome abnormalities or carries the risk of genetic disease, the doctor may choose another embryo or decide not to implant.
For example, in the IVF diagnosis and treatment center of a famous hospital in Beijing, they use the whole genome detection technology to screen embryos, and select healthy embryos to implant into the mother based on the detection results. This screening can greatly reduce the probability of embryo implantation with chromosome abnormalities or genetic disease risks, and improve the success rate of IVF.
2. Adjustment of examination results to treatment plan
The examination results can also help doctors adjust the treatment plan of IVF. For example, if the examination results show that a woman has ovulation problems or endometrial abnormalities, the doctor may adjust the hormone treatment program to increase the success rate of ovulation and the acceptance of endometrium. The results of the examination can also help doctors to determine whether assisted reproductive technologies are needed, such as embryo freezing before embryo implantation, embryo transfer technology, etc.
For example, the IVF Center of a famous hospital in Shanghai uses ultrasound monitoring technology and hormone level detection to assess the development of follicles and help doctors adjust hormone treatment plans to improve the success rate of egg collection. At the same time, they also evaluated the thickness and quality of endometrium based on the examination results to ensure the success of embryo implantation.
3. Impact of examination results on infant health
An important role of IVF test results is to assess the health status of infants and the risk of genetic diseases. Genetic examination can detect whether there is a risk of genetic disease in embryos. This is particularly important for couples with a history of genetic diseases in the family. They can choose to implant embryos without genetic diseases to reduce the risk of infant disease.
For example, the IVF Center of a hospital in Guangzhou can detect more than 1000 common single gene diseases by using comprehensive genetic screening, helping couples with specific genetic diseases in the family to select healthy embryos. This kind of precise genetic examination can greatly reduce the risk of disease in childbearing children.
4. Psychological support of examination results during treatment
IVF treatment is a long and complicated process for couples, which may bring psychological pressure and anxiety. Good examination results can give couples timely psychological support. If the examination results are normal, the couple will have more confidence and hope; If the examination results are not satisfactory, doctors can give more care and guidance to couples to help them overcome difficulties.
In conclusion, the results of IVF test have an important impact on follow-up treatment. It can help doctors choose healthy embryos, adjust treatment plans, predict the health status of infants, and provide psychological support. Through effective inspection results, the success rate of IVF technology and the health level of infants can be improved.
