IVF 43: How to improve the success rate of IVF?
As an assisted reproductive technology, IVF is widely used in infertile couples. However, with the growth of age, the success rate of IVF gradually declined. For 43 year old women, how to improve the success rate of IVF has become a key issue. This article will elaborate from four aspects: physical examination and screening, hormone control, embryo transfer and psychological adjustment.
1、 Physical examination and screening
Physical examination and screening is a necessary step before IVF, which can help doctors understand whether women are suitable for IVF. For 43 year old women, age is an important influencing factor, so more detailed physical screening is needed. The first is blood examination, including the determination of FSH, LH, estradiol and other hormone levels, as well as thyroid function, blood sugar and blood lipids. The second is the examination of the uterus and ovary. The status of the endometrium and ovary can be evaluated through B ultrasound or other imaging techniques to understand whether there is endometriosis or ovarian dysfunction. In addition, genetic examination can be carried out to exclude potential genetic diseases.
In addition to routine physical examination and screening, special examination items are also required, such as ovarian reserve function test. This test can help doctors understand the number and quality of eggs available in women's ovaries and predict the success rate of IVF. Understanding the physical examination will help to take appropriate treatment measures and improve the success rate of IVF.
2、 Hormone control
Hormone control is an important link in IVF. For 43 year old women, hormone control needs to be more refined and cautious. It mainly includes two aspects: ovulation promotion and luteal support.
Ovulation promotion refers to regulating the hormone level of women through drugs to urge the ovaries to discharge mature eggs. For a 43 year old woman, due to the decline of her ovarian function, the concentration and dose of ovulation promoting drugs need to be more precisely controlled to avoid too much or too little ovulation. Luteal support refers to the use of progesterone and other drugs to help the endometrium establish and maintain a suitable environment after fertilization of the egg, increasing the possibility of successful pregnancy.
Fine and careful hormone control can make women's bodies in the best state and improve the success rate of IVF.
3、 Embryo transfer
Embryo transfer is the last and key step of IVF. The aging leads to the decline of egg quality, so we need to be very careful in embryo selection. Doctors usually choose embryos with good shape, development and normal chromosomes for transplantation. In addition, gene detection technology can also be combined to screen whether there are chromosomal abnormalities or genetic diseases, so as to further improve the success rate of IVF.
The technology of embryo transfer is also crucial. Generally, traditional fixed cycle transplantation or natural cycle transplantation can be selected, and individual selection can be made according to specific conditions. At the same time, the microfluidic transfer technology based on the morphological characteristics of endometrium can improve the success rate of embryo embedding in endometrium and further improve the success rate of IVF.
4、 Psychological adjustment
Test tube baby is an important decision and treatment for couples, and the reduction of 43 year old women's success rate often brings psychological pressure. Therefore, psychological adjustment is also a very critical aspect.
First, couples need to support and understand each other and work together to face the challenge of IVF. At the same time, you can also participate in some psychological counseling or psychological counseling activities to ease your mood and reduce pressure. In addition, we can also fully communicate with doctors, understand the actual situation and treatment process, and build trust and consensus.
In conclusion, it is a complex task to improve the success rate of IVF. The success rate of IVF can be maximized through physical screening, fine hormone control, appropriate embryo transfer and healthy psychological adjustment. For a 43 year old woman, these measures are particularly important to help realize the dream of a healthy baby.
