What is the preparation process of IVF?



Preparation process of IVF

Test tube baby is an assisted reproductive technology, which is widely used in many infertile couples. The preparation process of IVF will be described in detail below to ensure successful pregnancy and safe delivery.

1. Diagnosis and evaluation

When considering couples with IVF, it is first necessary to make a diagnosis of infertility and physical assessment of both the couple. This step is mainly completed by doctors. The doctor will determine the cause of infertility and whether it is suitable for IVF through a detailed understanding of the medical history, physical examination, necessary reproductive system examination and reproductive hormone test of the couple. When it is confirmed that IVF is needed, the doctor will also evaluate the couple's age, physical condition, ovarian reserve, etc. to determine the appropriate IVF program. Next, the doctor will explain the whole process of IVF, including the use of ovulation promoting drugs, taking eggs, fertilization, embryo culture and transplantation.

2. Use of ovulation promoting drugs

In order to get enough eggs, doctors usually give women ovulation drugs. These drugs can promote the ovary to produce multiple follicles and increase the chance of successful pregnancy. The use of ovulation promoting drugs requires close monitoring by doctors to ensure that the ovarian response is appropriate and will not cause serious side effects. In the process of using ovulation promoting drugs, doctors usually use ultrasound and other technologies to monitor the growth of the ovary, and adjust the drug dose according to the monitoring results. Once the follicle grows to the proper size, the doctor will arrange for follicle collection.

3. Egg collection and sperm collection

Egg collection is a key step in the IVF preparation process. Usually when the egg is mature, the doctor will perform an egg collection operation. This operation is usually performed in a hospital or clinic and is completed under general anesthesia. Sperm collection can be achieved through masturbation, semen donation or testicular puncture. The collected sperm will be processed by sperm professional technicians to extract the healthiest and most active sperm.

4. Embryo culture and transplantation

After the egg and sperm are successfully combined, a fertilized egg is formed. In order to increase the chance of pregnancy, the fertilized eggs are usually cultured in the incubator. The incubator provides a suitable environment for fertilized eggs to develop into embryos. The embryo culture time is generally 2-6 days, during which the doctor will monitor the development of the embryo and select the appropriate embryo for transplantation. Embryo transfer is the last step in the IVF cycle and is usually delivered into the uterus through the vagina using a thin tube. Once the embryo is successfully implanted into the endometrium, pregnancy may occur.

Summary

The preparation process of IVF includes diagnosis and evaluation, use of ovulation promoting drugs, egg collection and sperm collection, and embryo culture and transplantation. This process needs to be closely monitored and operated to ensure the success of IVF and the health of mother and child. In the process of selecting IVF, couples should cooperate with professional doctors and actively cooperate with all examinations and treatments to increase the chances of success.
