Many couples who have been married for many years but are unable to conceive choose the method of in vitro fertilization, which is also a helpless thing. So the editor often laments that some people can always get pregnant even if they don't want to, while others who long for children put in a lot of effort. Previously, when watching TV dramas, the female lead portrayed the pain with great intensity. So, in general, when is the peak period of ascites after egg retrieval?
Peak period of ascites after egg retrieval for several days
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is one of the main complications of in vitro fertilization assisted reproduction. It is an excessive response of the human body to ovulation inducing drugs, which can cause abdominal fluid accumulation and local or systemic edema. In recent years, the occurrence of OHSS has been on the rise, attracting increasing attention from clinical healthcare workers. OHSS is a self limiting disease that generally lasts for 3-7 days and gradually improves. If pregnant, the duration will be longer, usually 3-4 weeks, and more severe for twins.
How to recuperate after egg retrieval
1. Patients with ascites, especially those with hypoalbuminemia, should strictly control the intake of sodium salts, followed by water intake, and try to excrete excess water from the body through the kidneys as much as possible.
2. It is advisable to consume a high sugar, high protein, high vitamin, and low-fat diet; Diet should be soft and easy to digest, avoiding raw, cold, spicy, and stimulating foods.
3. Take a comfortable sleeping position, rest properly, and move slowly when turning over and getting up, without forcefully pressing on the abdomen. Additionally, it is important to maintain smooth urination and defecation to avoid increasing abdominal pressure.
I feel sorry for those compatriots who have suffered as a result, but I am also moved by their efforts and courage. Some people may take their condition lightly after egg retrieval, regardless of whether they have symptoms or not. It is important to take precautions against ascites, as some people may experience symptoms later. Finally, I hope sisters can welcome their babies as they wish.
