What is the success rate of elderly childbearing?
With the progress of modern medicine, the success rate of elderly childbearing has gradually increased. In the past, when women passed a certain age, the difficulty of childbirth would increase. But now, many hospitals have successfully helped elderly women realize their desire to have children with the help of assisted reproductive technology.
1. Application of embryo transfer technology
Embryo transfer technology is one of the commonly used assisted reproductive technologies for the elderly. It includes in vitro fertilization embryo transfer (IVF-ET) and ovarian cell transplantation. These techniques increase the chances of fertilized eggs implanting by transplanting fertilized eggs or ovarian cells into the uterus.
Beijing Maternity Hospital is an example of successful application of embryo transfer technology. In this hospital, doctors can determine the best time to collect eggs and improve the quality of fertilized eggs by detecting the hormone level and ovarian function in women. At the same time, the success rate has also been increased by carefully selecting the right time for embryo transfer.
In addition, embryo transfer technology can also be combined with genetic screening technology to improve the quality of embryos. Genetic screening technology can detect chromosome abnormalities carried by embryos and reduce the risk of embryo transfer failure.
2. Feasibility of high-quality egg supply
Although female ovarian function will decline with age, modern medical technology has found a solution to this problem. In recent years, the development of egg freezing technology enables women to take eggs at the best reproductive age, and then use high-quality frozen eggs for treatment when they grow older.
Shanghai Changhai Hospital is a hospital that provides frozen eggs for elderly women. The hospital has advanced freezing equipment and exquisite operation technology, which can ensure the storage quality of eggs. In this way, women have the opportunity to freeze eggs when they are young, and then use these high-quality eggs for IVF treatment when they are old, so as to improve the success rate.
3. Importance of overall health management
In addition to the application of assisted reproductive technology, overall health management also plays an important role in the success rate of elderly childbearing. Women need to have a comprehensive physical examination before preparing for pregnancy, including gynecological examination, reproductive system examination, endocrine examination, etc. Through timely detection and treatment of potential health problems, you can improve your physical condition during pregnancy preparation.
In addition, maintaining good living habits is also an important aspect of maintaining overall health. Reasonable diet, moderate exercise and sufficient rest can improve the balance of hormone levels in the body, strengthen the body's resistance, and create favorable conditions for the smooth pregnancy of elderly women. Peking Union Medical College Hospital provides all-round health guidance to elderly women to help them maintain good living habits during the pregnancy preparation stage.
4. Psychological guidance and support
The elderly childbearing is a major physical and mental challenge for women. Therefore, during the whole pregnancy period, women and their families need psychological guidance and support from doctors.
Nanjing Maternal and Child Health Hospital has a team of psychological consultants to provide psychological counseling for elderly pregnant women. Through psychological counseling and support, they help pregnant women reduce stress, maintain a good emotional state, and create a good environment for smooth pregnancy and delivery.
Summary
With the development of modern medical technology, it is easier to give birth at an advanced age. Embryo transfer technology, high-quality egg supply, overall health management and psychological counseling and support have all had an important impact on the success rate of elderly childbearing. Of course, everyone's fertility is different, so it is still necessary to carry out a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan according to individual conditions. However, through the rational use of medical technology and comprehensive management strategies, the success rate of elderly childbearing can be significantly improved.
