The difference between test tube baby hysteroscopy and traditional test tube baby surgery
Traditional IVF is a common assisted reproductive technology, which realizes pregnancy by fertilizing eggs and sperm in vitro and transplanting the fertilized eggs back to the female uterus. Compared with traditional IVF, IVF hysteroscopy is different in technology and operation. The following will make a detailed comparison between the two in terms of embryo detection, implantation mode, egg retrieval process and side effects.
Embryo testing
In traditional IVF, embryo screening mainly depends on appearance characteristics and probability. This means that only a few embryos can be detected for the risk of genetic diseases such as chromosomal abnormalities or gene mutations. In contrast, IVF hysteroscopy uses new methods, namely embryonic chromosome screening (PGS) and selective implantation (PI). Through gene analysis and screening of embryos, abnormal embryos can be screened out, greatly improving the success rate.
The embryo detection method of IVF hysteroscopy is more accurate, which can avoid the transmission of some genetic diseases and reduce the risk of abortion.
Implantation mode
In traditional IVF, the fertilized egg will enter the uterine cavity through the cervix. This way has certain risks, which may lead to stimulation of uterine cavity and increase the risk of abortion. In contrast, hysteroscopic surgery is a minimally invasive operation. This technique is to accurately implant the fertilized eggs by directly observing the uterine cavity, and observe the implantation process through a mirror, which improves the accuracy and success rate of implantation and reduces the risk of miscarriage.
Egg retrieval process
In the process of IVF, egg retrieval is an important operation. In traditional IVF surgery, egg retrieval is conducted through transvaginal ultrasound guidance, which is relatively complex and requires experienced doctors. In IVF hysteroscopy, eggs are taken through hysteroscopy, which is highly accurate and safe, and can detect and deal with potential problems in a timely manner.
The procedure of IVF hysteroscopy is safer and more reliable, which can better protect the quality and quantity of eggs.
side effect
There are also some differences in side effects between the two kinds of IVF. In traditional IVF, the complicated process of egg retrieval may lead to the occurrence of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) and other side effects. In IVF hysteroscopy, the process of egg retrieval is more accurate and safe, reducing the risk of OHSS.
In addition, IVF hysteroscopy can also reduce the chance of trauma and infection, which is a safer choice.
Indications of test tube baby hysteroscopy and traditional test tube baby surgery
There are also some differences in the selection of indications between IVF hysteroscopy and traditional IVF. Tube baby hysteroscopy is mainly applicable to the following situations:
1. Older women: Because the IVF hysteroscopy is more safe and reliable, it is suitable for older women and can improve the success rate of egg retrieval.
2. Patients with multiple failures of IVF: IVF hysteroscopy can improve the success rate through changes in embryo screening and implantation methods, and has a better effect on patients with multiple failures of IVF.
3. Carriers of genetic diseases: IVF hysteroscopy can perform embryonic chromosome screening and selective implantation, which can avoid the transmission of some genetic diseases and is suitable for carriers of genetic diseases.
In conclusion, compared with traditional IVF, IVF hysteroscopy is different in embryo detection, implantation mode, egg retrieval process and side effects. In terms of indication selection, IVF hysteroscopy is applicable to older women, patients who have failed in IVF many times and carriers of genetic diseases.
Therefore, according to individual conditions, patients can choose their own IVF technology to improve the pregnancy success rate.
