Conditions of IVF
Test tube baby is a kind of assisted reproduction technology, which is used to help couples who are difficult to conceive naturally to achieve their reproductive aspirations. IVF babies need to meet certain conditions, including the health status, age requirements, marital status and economic capacity of both spouses. The following will introduce the conditions of IVF from four aspects.
Physical health
First, both husband and wife need to maintain good health. For women, their uterus and fallopian tubes need to be normal without any structural abnormalities. Their egg quality is also very important. Women with poor egg quality are often difficult to conceive successfully. For men, the quantity and quality of sperm is also crucial. If the number of sperm is insufficient or the quality of sperm is poor for men, the chances of achieving fertility through IVF will be greatly reduced.
Secondly, both husband and wife need to carry out various disease examinations to exclude possible genetic or chronic diseases. These diseases may affect the health of embryos, and even lead to abortion or malformation of embryos. Therefore, it is very important to ensure that both husband and wife do not carry any gene mutation or genetic disease that may have adverse effects on the embryo.
Finally, both husband and wife need to have a physical examination to ensure that there are no other potential health problems. Healthy couples are more likely to successfully achieve their reproductive aspirations through IVF technology.
Age requirements
The age requirements for IVF are mainly for women. Women's fertility will gradually decline with age. Generally speaking, the success rate of IVF for women before the age of 35 is high, and after the age of 35, the success rate will be significantly reduced. Therefore, women under 35 years old are more suitable for IVF.
In addition, in some formal hospitals, there will also be certain restrictions on the age of men. When men are over 40 years old, the quality and quantity of sperm often decline, which affects the success rate of IVF.
marital status
IVF is usually only applicable to married couples. This is because IVF technology involves legal parent-child relationship and legal inheritance rights. In some countries and regions, IVF can only be accepted by married couples, and only when both parties are legal couples, can the fertilized eggs be implanted into women.
Economic capacity
IVF is an expensive medical technology. In addition to medical expenses, it also includes drug expenses, examination expenses, etc. In addition, once successfully pregnant, pregnant women also need to pay medical expenses during pregnancy and postpartum care costs. Therefore, both husband and wife need to have enough economic capacity to bear the cost of IVF.
In a word, the conditions of IVF include physical health, age requirements, marital status and economic capacity. Both husband and wife need to ensure good health and eliminate potential genetic diseases and other health problems. Female under 35 years old and male under 40 years old are more suitable for IVF. In addition, IVF is usually only applicable to married couples, and both spouses should have sufficient financial capacity to bear the relevant costs. Only those couples who meet these conditions can successfully achieve their fertility aspirations through IVF technology.
