Risk and side effects of IVF in Guangxi
As an assisted reproductive technology, in recent years, IVF technology has attracted more and more attention and application in Guangxi. Although IVF technology has brought hope, it also has certain risks and side effects. The risks and side effects of IVF in Guangxi will be described in detail from several aspects.
1. Physiological risk
IVF technology will have a certain impact on women's physical health. First, in order to obtain enough eggs for in vitro fertilization, women need to receive high-dose hormone treatment, which may cause side effects such as polycystic ovary syndrome. Secondly, the ovum retrieval operation may lead to ovarian trauma, risk of bleeding, infection and other complications, and cause a certain burden on women's health. In addition, the process of embryo transfer may also cause complications such as intrauterine infection or endometriosis.
It is worth mentioning that IVF technology is not applicable to all infertile couples. For women who are too old, thin endometrium, and ovarian function decline, the success rate of IVF technology is low, and may bring more risks.
2. Psychological risk
The process of IVF technology also has a certain impact on the psychological health of couples. After many failed attempts, couples may feel depressed, anxious, disappointed and other negative emotions, and even pressure on the marriage relationship. In addition, IVF needs to endure long waiting and uncertainty during the process, which will also impose certain psychological burden on couples.
In order to cope with these psychological pressures, some hospitals and institutions in Guangxi provide psychological counseling and support for IVF couples to help them overcome difficulties.
3. Economic risks
IVF technology is an expensive treatment. In Guangxi, the cost of IVF usually includes the cost of hormone therapy, the cost of ovum retrieval operation, the cost of embryo culture, and the cost of embryo transfer. These costs are high and not included in the scope of medical insurance. For some families with limited economic conditions, they may increase their financial burden.
In addition, due to the low success rate of IVF technology, couples may need to try many times to successfully conceive, further increasing the financial burden.
4. Genetic risk
IVF technology involves in vitro fertilization, embryo transfer and other steps, and there are certain genetic risks. First of all, in the process of in vitro fertilization, there may be transmission risks of genetic diseases, such as chromosome abnormalities, single gene genetic diseases, etc. Secondly, the process of embryo transfer may lead to the production of multiple fetuses, increasing the probability of adverse pregnancy outcomes such as premature delivery and low birth weight infants.
In view of these risks and side effects, IVF technology in Guangxi requires patients to conduct under the guidance of professional doctors and fully understand its risks and limitations. Before choosing IVF technology, couples should fully communicate with doctors and consider their own physical conditions, psychological endurance, economic conditions and other factors. Reasonable and scientific use of IVF technology will help to achieve the fertility aspirations of infertile couples.
Conclusion: While IVF technology in Guangxi brings fertility hope, it also has certain risks and side effects. Physiological risk, psychological risk, economic risk and genetic risk all need patients and doctors to face and deal with together. Before choosing IVF technology, couples should fully understand the risks and side effects, and make decisions under the guidance of professional doctors in order to achieve the birth of healthy babies.
