Advantages of IVF
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is an assisted reproductive technology, which helps couples who cannot conceive naturally realize their fertility aspirations by fertilizing eggs and sperm in vitro and then implanting the fertilized eggs into the mother's uterus. In recent decades, IVF technology has been widely used and played an important role in solving the problem of infertility for many couples. The advantages of IVF will be introduced from four aspects.
1. Solve the problem of infertility
Test tube baby technology provides a viable reproductive option for infertile couples. The problem of infertility often brings great psychological pressure and trouble to couples, and IVF technology provides hope and opportunities for these couples. Through in vitro fertilization, embryo transfer and other processes, couples can overcome the obstacles of natural pregnancy and achieve their reproductive aspirations.
In addition, IVF technology can also carry out genetic screening for some diseases and reduce the risk of birth of some genetic diseases. This enables couples to avoid passing on genetic diseases with genetic defects to the next generation, making important contributions to family health and future generations' happiness.
2. Provide extension of childbearing age
IVF technology can help women extend their childbearing age. The fertility of women gradually decreases with age, especially among women over 35 years old. However, through IVF technology, women can freeze their own young eggs, conduct fertilization and embryo transfer when needed in the future, and increase their chances to continue their offspring.
This provides more freedom and choice for those women who cannot pursue early marriage and childbearing for career, career or personal reasons. At the same time, the frozen storage of fertilized eggs is also an auxiliary means for women to treat certain diseases (such as cancer), which avoids the infertility problem caused by the influence of disease treatment.
3. Increase the fertility success rate
Compared with natural pregnancy, IVF technology can improve the fertility success rate to a certain extent. IVF technology can increase the survival rate of embryos, evaluate the quality of embryos and improve the success rate of implantation of fertilized eggs by selecting the best fertilized eggs in vitro.
In addition, IVF technology can also cooperate with other technologies, such as embryonic wax cell replacement (PGD), to conduct genetic testing on fertilized eggs, eliminate chromosome abnormalities, gene mutations and other problems, and further improve the health and survival rate of embryos.
4. Promoter of medical research and progress
The promotion and application of IVF technology in the field of infertility not only provide opportunities for tens of thousands of couples to solve infertility problems, but also promote medical research and progress. Continuous technological innovation and medical practice have not only improved the success rate of IVF technology, but also promoted the development of reproductive medicine, embryology and other fields.
The rapid development of IVF technology has also promoted the training of hospital equipment and professionals, and promoted the rational allocation and optimization of medical resources. The risks and complications of IVF surgery include the risk of failure of a few treatment cycles in the body, emotional fluctuations caused by hormone therapy, drug allergy, uterine perforation, oviduct blockage and other rare complications that may be caused during surgery.
summary
The IVF technology provides an important reproductive choice for couples who cannot conceive naturally by solving the problem of infertility, extending the reproductive age, increasing the fertility success rate and promoting medical research progress. Although IVF surgery has certain risks, with the continuous development of technology and the improvement of medical level, these risks have also been effectively controlled and reduced. The application of IVF technology has not only helped countless couples realize their reproductive dreams, but also promoted the progress of medical research and reproductive medicine.
