What is the risk of complications of IVF in Linyi?
Test tube baby technology is one of the important assisted reproductive technologies to help infertile couples achieve their reproductive aspirations. In hospitals in Linyi City, IVF technology has been widely used. However, like other medical procedures, IVF also has some possible complications. This article will discuss the risk of complications of Linyi IVF from four aspects: preparation stage, ovulation monitoring, oocyte retrieval operation and embryo transfer.
Preparation phase
Before IVF treatment, doctors will conduct detailed physical examination and relevant examinations to understand the patient's physical condition and reproductive system function. Possible complications during preparation include:
1. Reaction or allergy: The patient may have reaction or allergy to the drugs used for ovulation guidance. Common reactions include nausea, vomiting, and mood swings.
2. Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS): some patients will have ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome during ovulation, and the symptoms include abdominal distension, abdominal pain, dyspnea, etc. This situation needs prompt treatment.
3. Vaginal infection: use drugs to prevent infection before ovum retrieval, but some patients may still have vaginal infection.
Ovulation monitoring
The purpose of ovulation monitoring is to determine the best time to retrieve eggs and monitor the growth of follicles. However, there may be some complications in this process:
1. Ovarian rupture: Due to ovarian enlargement and congestion, very few patients may have ovarian rupture, and symptoms include severe abdominal pain and bleeding.
2. Risk of sexually transmitted disease infection: Some patients may be at risk of sexually transmitted disease infection due to the need for multiple vaginal examinations.
3. Infertility factor aggravation: In the process of ovulation monitoring, sometimes it may be found that the patient's infertility factor is further aggravated, which may be a blow to the patient.
Ovum retrieval
Egg retrieval is the core link of IVF technology and one of the links with high risks:
1. Surgical accidents: during the egg retrieval operation, surgical accidents may occur, such as vascular and organ injuries.
2. Bleeding and infection: The egg retrieval operation may lead to an increased risk of bleeding and infection, which requires strict observation and timely treatment by doctors.
3. Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS): OHSS may occur after egg retrieval, especially when more than 20 eggs are removed.
Embryo transfer
Embryo transfer is the last step in the whole IVF process, and there are also risks of some complications:
1. Low pregnancy success rate: not all transferred embryos can be successfully embedded into the uterine wall to become pregnant. For some reasons, such as poor embryo quality, the pregnancy success rate may be low.
2. Multiple pregnancy: In order to increase the chance of pregnancy, sometimes multiple embryos will be transferred, but this also increases the risk of multiple pregnancy.
3. Increased abortion risk: The abortion risk of IVF pregnancy is similar to that of natural pregnancy, but some patients may be more worried about the increase of abortion risk.
summary
There is a certain risk of complications in IVF treatment in hospitals in Linyi. In the preparation stage, reaction or allergy, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and vaginal infection may occur. During ovulation monitoring, ovarian rupture, risk of sexually transmitted disease infection and infertility factors may occur. Egg retrieval may lead to surgical accidents, bleeding, infection and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Embryo transfer may lead to low pregnancy success rate, increased risk of multiple pregnancy and abortion. Therefore, before IVF treatment, patients need to fully understand the potential risks and fully communicate with doctors to improve the success rate of treatment and reduce complications.
