What is the risk of IVF stopping at 25 weeks?
IVF refers to the babies artificially fertilized and bred in the laboratory through assisted reproductive technology. However, for various reasons, there may be unexpected situations during the development of IVF, such as fetal arrest. Fetal arrest refers to the termination of development or abortion of an embryo during pregnancy. So, what is the risk of IVF stopping at 25 weeks? How does fetal arrest affect infant development? The following will be elaborated from several aspects.
1. High risk pregnancy
IVF pregnancy is carried out through assisted reproductive technology, which has certain risks to both mother and embryo. For example, IVF pregnancy is often accompanied by an increase in maternal age, which will increase the risk of fetal arrest. In addition, some chronic diseases, such as hypertension and diabetes, will also increase the risk of fetal arrest. According to the study, the risk of IVF stopping at 25 weeks of pregnancy is relatively low, about 1-2%.
However, it is worth noting that every IVF pregnancy case is unique, and the risk assessment should be carried out in combination with individual conditions, which cannot be generalized. Doctors will assess the risk of fetal suspension according to the maternal health status, monitoring results during pregnancy and other comprehensive factors.
2. Effect of fetal arrest on infant development
Fetal arrest will affect the development of infants to varying degrees. In the case of 25 week fetal suspension, the baby is still in the early pregnancy stage. If fetal suspension occurs, the embryo is likely to fail to continue to develop normally and eventually lead to abortion. This may be a heartbreaking thing for test tube couples.
In addition, fetal arrest may be the result of many serious complications during pregnancy, such as placental dysfunction, pregnancy induced hypertension syndrome, etc. These complications will have a serious impact on the development of infants, and even endanger their lives. Therefore, it is very important to detect and deal with tyre arrest as soon as possible.
3. Diagnosis and treatment of tire stoppage
Tire arrest can be diagnosed by different inspection means, such as ultrasound inspection, fetal heart rate monitoring, etc. If the doctor suspects fetal arrest, he will recommend further examination to confirm the diagnosis. Once the termination is confirmed, the doctor will formulate corresponding treatment plans according to the number of weeks of pregnancy and specific conditions.
In the case of 25 week termination of IVF, pregnancy is usually terminated clinically to avoid greater risks to the mother and baby. However, various factors must be considered in the decision-making process, such as the risk of termination of pregnancy, maternal health, etc. The doctor will fully communicate with the patient and family members according to the specific situation, and provide professional advice.
4. Psychological support and future planning
The termination of IVF pregnancy is a great blow to couples, not only physical pain, but also psychological distress. Therefore, it is very important to provide psychological support. Family members, friends and professional psychological consultants can all give couples some support and encouragement to help them get through this difficult period.
In addition, stopping the pregnancy does not mean that the pregnancy cannot be successful again. Couples can discuss possible causes and improvement measures with doctors, and formulate future birth plans. The progress of IVF technology has enabled more and more couples to realize their dreams of becoming parents.
Summary
IVF infants have a relatively low risk of stopping at 25 weeks, usually 1-2%. Fetal arrest may affect the development of infants to varying degrees, which may lead to abortion or major complications. Once fetal arrest is found clinically, pregnancy is usually terminated to avoid greater risk. However, the decision-making process must consider various factors comprehensively. Couples need to get psychological support when they face termination, and discuss future birth planning with doctors.
