Definition of three generations of IVF

The third generation IVF is a reproductive technology, which assists infertile couples to achieve the goal of fertility through artificial insemination or fertilized egg transfer. Compared with the second-generation IVF, the third-generation IVF further provides more choices and technical support, enabling more couples to successfully conceive and have healthy children.

Hospital Introduction

In China, the third-generation IVF technology has been widely used, and many hospitals provide this service. For example, the Reproductive Medicine Center of Beijing People's Hospital is a professional hospital that conducts research and practice on third-generation IVF technology. The hospital has an experienced team equipped with advanced equipment and instruments to provide high-quality treatment and consultation services for infertile couples.

Technical principles and methods

Three generation IVF technology mainly includes two key steps: in vitro fertilization (IVF-ET) and embryo gene detection (PGD).

First of all, the fertilized egg is obtained by combining the female egg with the male sperm through assisted artificial reproduction technology. Secondly, after a period of culture and development, doctors will select the healthiest embryos for embryonic gene testing. This step can help doctors screen out embryos with genetic diseases or chromosome abnormalities, and improve the pregnancy rate and the health of infants.

Finally, the doctor will transplant the healthy fertilized eggs back into the mother's uterus to promote their successful implantation and development into embryos, giving birth to a healthy baby.

Advantages of three generations of IVF

Compared with the second-generation IVF, the third-generation IVF has the following advantages:

First of all, through embryo gene testing, some embryos carrying genetic diseases or chromosome abnormalities have been eliminated, which improves the pregnancy rate and the health of infants.

Secondly, the third-generation IVF technology can help older women achieve fertility, because PGD screened embryos have a higher implantation rate and delivery rate, reducing the risk of miscarriage and deformity.

In addition, the third-generation IVF technology can also help couples with genetic mutations have children, reduce the risk of disease transmission, and bring health and happiness to families.

summary

The third generation IVF is a kind of reproductive technology, which helps infertile couples achieve their reproductive goals through in vitro fertilization and embryo gene detection. In China, professional hospitals such as Beijing People's Hospital Reproductive Medicine Center provide third-generation IVF technical services. The advantages of this technology include improving the pregnancy rate and the health of infants, helping older women achieve fertility, and reducing the risk of inheritance of genetic diseases. With the continuous development and application of technology, three generations of IVF will bring hope and joy to more couples.
