Preparation for IVF
IVF is an important fertility choice, but before IVF, a series of preparations need to be made to improve the success rate and ensure smooth progress. This article will elaborate on the preparations for IVF from four aspects.
Hospital selection
The first preparation is to choose a regular hospital for IVF. First, ensure that the hospital has IVF technology and equipment, and has an experienced professional team. The reputation and success rate of the hospital can be understood through the recommendation of relatives and friends, doctors or network evaluation. Secondly, we should know whether the service and cost of the hospital meet the individual needs and economic capacity. Finally, visit the hospital on the spot, interview with the doctor, understand the medical process and risks in detail, and ensure that you have full confidence in the choice of the hospital.
In China, Shanghai Renji Hospital and Beijing Union Medical College Hospital are well-known IVF centers with advanced technology and professional teams, which can be used as reference options.
Physical examination
Before IVF, it is necessary to ensure good health to improve the success rate of pregnancy. First, women's gynecological examination, including the functional evaluation of uterus, ovary and fallopian tube, as well as the monitoring of sex hormone levels and ovulation cycle. For men, semen analysis is needed to assess the quantity and quality of sperm.
At the same time, it is also necessary to conduct a comprehensive physical examination, including blood routine, liver function, kidney function, thyroid function, etc., to ensure the health of all systems of the body, so as to avoid the impact of potential health problems on IVF.
If any health problem is found during the examination, it is necessary to treat it in time and wait for the disease to recover before carrying out the IVF process to ensure the health of the mother and baby.
Lifestyle adjustment
During the early preparation of IVF, the lifestyle needs to be adjusted to prepare for pregnancy. First, stop using contraceptives and determine the appropriate time for pregnancy. In addition, maintain healthy living habits, including balanced diet, regular exercise, adequate sleep and proper relaxation. Avoid smoking, drinking and excessive mental stress. These bad habits will reduce the success rate of pregnancy.
In addition, couples preparing for IVF also need to pay attention to each other's emotional health. The IVF process may lead to greater emotional fluctuations, which may increase tension and stress between couples. Therefore, it is suggested that couples should maintain good communication and support, and seek professional psychological guidance to maintain emotional stability.
Economic and legal preparation
IVF is a high cost medical option, which requires sufficient economic funds to cope with various expenses, including medical expenses, drug expenses, conditioning expenses, etc. It is necessary to know the specific cost composition and payment method in advance and formulate a reasonable economic plan.
In addition, we also need to understand and comply with relevant laws and regulations to ensure our rights and interests and the legitimate identity of our children. IVF involves reproductive medicine technology and genetic information processing, which needs to comply with national laws and regulations. Therefore, it is necessary to actively learn medical ethics and relevant legal knowledge to ensure compliance with the law in the process of IVF.
Summary
The early preparation of IVF is an important step to ensure the smooth progress of IVF and improve the success rate. Hospital selection, physical examination, lifestyle adjustment and economic and legal preparation are the key aspects of preparation. By choosing a regular hospital, maintaining good health, adjusting lifestyle and making economic and legal preparations, the success of IVF can be paved.
