What technology is related to the success rate of IVF?
As an important breakthrough in modern reproductive medicine, IVF technology provides a way of hope for couples who cannot conceive naturally. However, the success rate of IVF is affected by many factors. This article will elaborate from four aspects, namely, individual differences of patients, in vitro fertilization process, embryo culture and selection technology, and auxiliary treatment means.
1、 Individual patient differences
The success rate of IVF is first affected by individual differences of patients. Female age is an important factor. According to medical research, as women's age gradually increases, the quality and quantity of eggs will decline, leading to a decline in the success rate of pregnancy. In addition, whether there is chronic inflammation, endometrial thickness and smoothness in women will also affect the success rate of IVF.
The quality of male sperm is also a key factor in the success of IVF. Abnormal sperm density, motility and morphology will affect the fertilization ability of sperm. Some men suffer from infertility caused by abnormal sperm or genetic factors, which may affect the success rate of IVF.
In addition, patients' physical health, such as whether they have diabetes or thyroid dysfunction, will also affect the success rate of IVF. Therefore, in IVF technology, the success rate can be improved by evaluating and adjusting the factors of individual differences of patients.
2、 In vitro fertilization process
The success rate of IVF is also related to the process of IVF. In vitro fertilization mainly includes egg collection, sperm treatment and fertilization process. Among them, the success of the egg collection process directly affects the quantity and quality of derived embryos. If the egg collection is not sufficient or the quality is poor, the success rate of IVF will be limited.
Sperm processing is also an important link. Through centrifugation and smooth processing, high-quality sperm can be screened to improve fertilization rate. However, improper treatment, such as insufficient or too long sperm egg binding time, will reduce the possibility of IVF success.
The mastery of fertilization process and operation technology is also one of the factors affecting the success rate of IVF. The experience and professional level of doctors are very important for the smooth process of egg retrieval, the accuracy of sperm injection, embryo implantation and other steps.
3、 Embryo culture and selection technology
The success rate of IVF is also closely related to embryo culture and selection technology. Embryo culture includes embryo feeding and quality assessment. Scientific and reasonable embryo feeding conditions can improve the survival rate and quality of embryos. In addition, accurate assessment of embryo development and quality can help doctors select the best embryo for implantation and improve the success rate of IVF.
Embryo selection technology is also one of the factors affecting the success rate of IVF. At present, the commonly used embryo evaluation techniques include embryo morphological evaluation, chromosome abnormality screening and gene mutation detection. Through these technologies, embryos with high implantation and implantation potential can be screened to improve the success rate.
4、 Adjuvant treatment
Adjuvant treatment also has a significant impact on the success rate of IVF. For example, in the process of IVF, for female patients, the use of ovulation promoting drugs can increase the number and quality of eggs and improve the success rate of pregnancy. For male patients, adjuvant therapy can improve the quantity and quality of sperm.
In addition, adjuvant treatment also includes endometrial preparation before embryo implantation, such as the use of progesterone and other drugs to improve the quality and thickness of endometrium, and improve the implantation rate and implantation rate of embryos.
Summary
The success rate of IVF is related to many factors. It includes individual differences of patients, operation technology of IVF process, embryo culture and selection technology, and auxiliary treatment methods. Scientific and reasonable operation, accurate selection of high-quality embryos and the use of adjuvant therapy can significantly improve the success rate of IVF. But at the same time, we also need to fully understand our own situation, carry out IVF technology under the guidance of doctors, and improve the chance of pregnancy.
