IVF is a common modern assisted reproductive technology that requires the collection of male sperm and female eggs, followed by the combination of sperm and eggs outside the body. The fertilized egg is then transplanted into the female uterus to form an implant, where the growth and development of the fetus is completed. After all, this is not a natural conception, so do women suffer from IVF?
Does IVF make women suffer
1. The first step of in vitro fertilization: ovulation induction. Causes of pain. Ovulation inducing drugs are mainly used to treat those who have no ovulation due to dysfunction of the hypothalamic pituitary ovarian axis. Taking drugs can induce ovulation. According to different physical conditions, doctors will prescribe different medications, including direct medication and injections.
2. The second step of in vitro fertilization: egg retrieval surgery, the cause of pain. Traditional Chinese methods for this type of surgery do not use anesthesia injections, but instead use oral painkillers or painkillers. The pain during the surgery is relatively strong, especially for multiple egg retrieval, which has been rumored to be the main painful process of in vitro fertilization surgery. But now larger hospitals in China use intravenous general anesthesia, which lasts for 30 minutes. Sleep 5 minutes after injection, and the egg retrieval surgery lasts for 15-20 minutes. You can wake up 5 minutes after the surgery. I can't feel the pain of the surgery.
3. The third stage of in vitro fertilization: embryo transfer, the cause of pain, uses a small embryo transfer tube that is inserted into the vagina, passes through the cervix, and is transferred into the mother's uterus. The doctor's movements are gentle during this process, and women will not experience any pain.
4. The fourth stage of IVF: Increased corpus luteum. Causes of pain: Traditional progesterone, as an oily liquid, is difficult to inject and lasts for a long time. After injection into the gluteal muscles, it is absorbed slowly, which can easily lead to hard lumps, commonly known as hard buttocks, requiring cold compress. Nowadays, many reproductive centers usually use progesterone suppositories, which are administered directly through the vagina without the need for injections, making it much easier.
Who is not suitable for IVF
1. Either male or female, suffering from serious mental illness, acute infection of the urinary and reproductive system, or sexually transmitted diseases.
2. Individuals with genetic diseases that are not suitable for reproduction according to national laws and are currently unable to undergo pre implantation genetic diagnosis.
3. Either party has serious bad habits such as drug use.
4. Anyone who has been exposed to teratogenic doses of radiation, toxins, or drugs and is in the active period.
5. Women whose uterus does not have the ability to conceive or whose severe physical illness cannot withstand pregnancy.
As a widely used assisted reproductive technology, in vitro fertilization (IVF) has met the needs of many families who wish to have children. However, as an artificial assisted technology, it needs to be selected comprehensively based on the physical conditions of different women. Not all women are suitable for IVF, and IVF has a certain success rate. Without determining that one's physical condition is completely infertile, it is still advisable to actively regulate one's body and strive for opportunities for natural reproduction.
