Treatment steps of Kunming test tube baby
IVF technology is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which is used to help couples who cannot conceive naturally achieve their reproductive aspirations. As a developed city in southwest China, Kunming has many professional reproductive hospitals providing IVF treatment services. The treatment steps of Kunming IVF will be described in detail from four aspects.
Assessment and screening
Before starting IVF treatment, doctors will conduct a comprehensive evaluation and screening of couples. This includes the examination of the couple's physical health, reproductive system functions, hormone levels and genetic diseases. Doctors will also develop personalized treatment plans according to the couple's age, infertility reasons and other related factors. At this stage, doctors will explain the treatment process and precautions to couples in detail to help them understand and adapt to IVF treatment.
In addition, the evaluation and screening also include the quality inspection of sperm and eggs. Men need to provide a semen sample to assess the number, vitality and morphology of sperm through sperm examination. For women, tubal patency test and ovarian function assessment are required to determine whether IVF treatment is suitable.
Egg and sperm retrieval
The second step of IVF treatment is to take eggs and sperm. Women need ovulation induction treatment before this to increase egg production. Then, under the guidance of the doctor, the mature eggs are taken out through the ultrasound guided ovarian puncture technology.
Men need to provide a fresh semen sample, or cryopreservation of semen. If men cannot provide semen, it is still possible to obtain sperm through testicular biopsy or other methods.
In vitro fertilization and embryo culture
After taking eggs and sperm, doctors will conduct in vitro fertilization and embryo culture in the laboratory. This is one of the key steps in IVF treatment. The doctor will put the obtained eggs and sperm into the culture dish for in vitro fertilization, and cultivate the fertilized eggs.
The fertilized eggs will be cultured in the laboratory until they develop to a suitable stage. The doctor will select one or more embryos with the most potential development according to the development of the embryo, and use them to transplant into the female uterus.
Embryo transfer and pregnancy testing
The last step of treatment is embryo transfer and pregnancy testing. The doctor will transplant the selected embryos through the endoscope or the traditional method of injecting under the endometrium at the appropriate time. This process is usually painless and does not require hospitalization.
After transplantation, women need to rest and recover for a period of time according to the doctor's advice. About two weeks later, the doctor will conduct a pregnancy test to confirm whether the pregnancy is successful.
In conclusion, the treatment steps of Kunming IVF mainly include evaluation and screening, egg and sperm collection, in vitro fertilization and embryo culture, as well as embryo transfer and pregnancy testing. This series of steps requires professional doctors and equipment to ensure the success rate of treatment and the safety of patients.
