The current situation of elderly childbearing
With the development of society and the progress of medical technology, more and more women choose to conceive and give birth at an advanced age. However, the elderly childbirth will bring a series of health problems, the most common of which is infertility. Due to the growth of age, women's ovarian function gradually declined, and the number and quality of eggs were also affected, which led to infertility. So, is there any effective treatment for the problem of infertility in the elderly? We will discuss it from different perspectives.
Assisted reproductive technology
Assisted reproductive technology is one of the most commonly used methods to treat infertility. Among them, IVF technology is the most common method. With IVF technology, doctors can take mature eggs from women and fertilize them in vitro with male sperm in the laboratory. After being cultured, the fertilized eggs are transplanted into the female uterus for implantation and growth. This technology can not only solve the problem of ovarian function decline, but also screen high-quality embryos and improve the probability of successful pregnancy. Moreover, IVF technology has been successfully applied in many real hospitals, such as Peking Union Medical College Hospital and Shanghai Renji Hospital.
In addition to IVF technology, there are many other assisted reproductive technologies available, such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), embryo cryopreservation, etc. The development of these technologies has provided more choices for elderly infertile patients and increased the chances of successful pregnancy.
TCM recuperation and TCM treatment
TCM has accumulated rich experience in treating infertility. Chinese medicine can improve women's fertility by regulating the balance of yin and yang in women's bodies and regulating qi and blood. Specific treatment methods include acupuncture, herbal decoction, moxibustion, etc.
There are many real TCM hospitals that provide special infertility treatment services, such as the Oriental Hospital affiliated to Beijing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Longhua Hospital affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In these hospitals, doctors will formulate individualized treatment plans according to the specific conditions of patients, and combine the concept and efficacy of Chinese medicine to provide effective treatment for elderly infertility patients.
Psychological guidance and health management
Elderly infertile patients often face a lot of psychological pressure, especially women who want to have their own children. Therefore, psychological guidance is very important in the process of treatment. The doctor will provide targeted guidance and support according to the patient's psychological state, to help patients adjust their mentality, alleviate anxiety and stress.
In addition, elderly infertile patients also need health management, including regular physical examination, reasonable diet, scientific exercise, etc. By maintaining good physical condition, women can improve their chances of pregnancy.
Summary
In view of the problem of infertility in the elderly, modern medicine has made remarkable progress. Assisted reproductive technology, such as test tube baby technology, has brought new hope to the elderly infertile patients. Traditional Chinese medicine conditioning and traditional Chinese medicine treatment also provide another option for infertility problems. In addition, psychological counseling and health management have also played a positive role in improving the success rate of elderly childbearing.
However, it should be noted that everyone's situation is unique, and the treatment methods should vary from person to person. Patients should choose appropriate treatment according to their own conditions, and treat under the guidance of professional doctors to improve the chance of successful pregnancy.
