How to evaluate the success rate of three generations of IVF
The third generation IVF is an assisted reproductive technology, which helps couples who cannot conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams by implanting the fertilized eggs into their mothers after in vitro culture. However, the third generation IVF is not 100% successful, and its success rate and risk need to be evaluated.
First, the success rate will be affected by many factors. On the one hand, female age is the main factor affecting the success rate. The older a woman is, the weaker her ovarian function will be, and the number and quality of eggs will decline, reducing the success rate. On the other hand, the quality and quantity of male sperm will also affect the success rate. In addition, couples with certain genetic diseases or gene mutations may also face a higher risk of failure when carrying out three generations of IVF.
Secondly, the evaluation of the success rate also needs to consider the technical level of different hospitals and doctors. Some hospitals and doctors have more experience and advanced equipment, which can improve the probability of women's successful pregnancy. Therefore, when selecting hospitals and doctors, their professional background, successful cases and customer evaluations should be considered.
In addition, the evaluation of success rate also needs to consider the technical factors in the operation. The third generation of IVF involves many links, including egg collection, sperm sampling, fertilization, embryo culture and transplantation. In each link, the technical level of doctors and the accuracy of surgical operations will have an impact on the success rate. Therefore, in the whole process, doctors need to have rich experience and professional knowledge, and follow scientific operating specifications.
How to assess the possible risks of the third generation IVF babies
Although the third-generation IVF technology can help couples conceive successfully, it also has certain risks. These risks need to be fully considered in the assessment.
First, the risk of drug use is an important risk faced by the third-generation IVF. In the process of egg collection, women need hormone treatment to stimulate ovarian development and release more eggs. However, these drugs may cause side effects such as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), which may cause physical discomfort to patients.
Secondly, the risk of embryo migration during implantation also needs to be assessed. Embryo transfer needs high accuracy, and any small deviation may lead to failure. In addition, the number of embryo transfers will also affect the success rate, but multiple embryo transfers will also increase the risk of multiple pregnancies.
In addition, the risk of genetic diseases also needs to be carefully assessed. If the couple has a carrier of a family genetic disease, the third generation IVF can reduce the risk of sick children through gene screening and early embryonic genetic diagnosis. However, this technology cannot completely eliminate the possibility of disease.
Which hospitals can carry out the third-generation IVF technology
Nowadays, more and more hospitals provide third-generation IVF technology, especially some large general hospitals and reproductive hospitals. The following are some well-known hospitals at home and abroad that can carry out three generations of IVF technology:
1. Domestic: Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, Wuhan Union Medical College Hospital, etc.
2. Abroad: Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, London Reproductive Center, UK, University of Tokyo Medical Department, Japan, etc.
In general, when choosing a hospital with third-generation IVF technology, we can consider the hospital's reputation, professional level, success rate, service quality and cost. In addition, it is also very important to fully communicate and consult with doctors to understand the risks and precautions of each step.
summary
The success rate and risk assessment of three generations of IVF are crucial for couples to choose this technology. The evaluation of success rate needs to consider factors such as age, sperm quality and quantity, genetic disease, etc., as well as the technical level and operation specifications of hospitals and doctors. Risk assessment needs to consider the risk of drug use, the accuracy and quantity of embryo transfer, and the risk of genetic diseases. The hospitals that carry out the third-generation IVF technology can choose well-known hospitals at home and abroad, such as Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, etc. When selecting a hospital, in addition to considering the reputation and success rate of the hospital, we should also fully communicate and consult with doctors. In conclusion, the third-generation IVF technology is a complex medical technology, and couples should fully understand the relevant knowledge of success rate and risk assessment before choosing.
