1、 Background of genetic problems of the third generation of test tube babies in Chongqing
In recent years, with the continuous progress of science and technology, IVF technology has been widely used and developed. Chongqing, as one of the fastest growing cities in western China, is no exception and has become one of the important centers for the research and application of IVF technology. However, there followed concerns and doubts about whether the third generation IVF in Chongqing has genetic problems.
Before discussing whether the third generation IVF in Chongqing has genetic problems, we need to first understand what the third generation IVF is. The third generation of test tube baby refers to the baby whose embryo obtained through assisted reproductive technology is implanted into the mother's uterus after gene screening, embryo mucilage, embryo chromosome identification and other processing, and finally succeeds in pregnancy.
2、 Analysis of the Genetic Problems of the Third Generation IVF in Chongqing
From the perspective of genetics, whether the third generation IVF in Chongqing has genetic problems depends on two aspects: one is whether there are mutations in the parents' genes, and the other is whether there will be new mutations in the process of IVF technology.
First of all, if parents carry gene mutations of genetic diseases, their children may also carry the same mutant genes, which will lead to the occurrence of genetic diseases. Therefore, before the third generation of IVF technology, doctors will conduct a comprehensive examination of the parents' genes to ensure that genetic diseases will not be transmitted.
Secondly, in the process of the third generation IVF technology, such as gene screening, embryo chromosome identification and other processing, if the processing process is wrong or inaccurate, it may lead to new gene mutations or chromosome abnormalities, thus increasing the risk of genetic problems for infants. Therefore, relevant hospitals in Chongqing attach great importance to the accuracy and reliability of professional technology when conducting IVF technology.
In addition, the genetic problems of the third generation IVF also need to take into account the parents' age, living habits and other factors. Older parents are more likely to carry gene mutations, which will increase the risk of genetic problems in IVF.
3、 The actual situation of genetic problems of the third generation of test tube babies in Chongqing
According to the data from a Grade III A hospital in Chongqing, the carefully selected and scientifically operated third-generation IVF technology will not lead to genetic problems. The hospital has been engaged in IVF technology for many years, and few of the babies born successfully have genetic problems.
The hospital carries out detailed genetic consultation and genetic testing for all couples involved in IVF technology to ensure that both parents have no gene mutation of hereditary diseases. In addition, the hospital also strictly controls the operation process of IVF technology to ensure the accuracy and reliability of gene screening and embryo chromosome identification.
4、 Conclusion
Based on the above analysis and actual situation, the third generation IVF in Chongqing is relatively safe in terms of genetics. Through parents' gene testing and scientific operation, it can effectively reduce the risk of transmission of genetic diseases and ensure the health of IVF. However, due to the difference in the accuracy of each couple's genetic situation and operation process, it is not ruled out that genetic problems may occur in a few cases. Therefore, before carrying out the third generation IVF technology, couples should carry out comprehensive genetic counseling and genetic testing, and choose a formal and experienced hospital for operation to ensure the health and safety of IVF.
