Procedure of IVF short protocol

IVF is an assisted reproductive technology that can help couples who cannot conceive naturally realize their dreams of childbirth. IVF procedures usually include the following aspects: indication evaluation, ovulation induction, egg retrieval, sperm treatment and embryo culture, embryo transfer and follow-up observation. The detailed procedures of each aspect will be described below, and how to implement these procedures in the real hospital will be discussed.

1、 Indications assessment

The evaluation of indications is the first step of the IVF procedure to determine whether couples are suitable for IVF treatment. In real hospitals, couples are usually arranged to have comprehensive physical examination, marriage and childbearing history inquiry and relevant laboratory tests. These tests can help doctors understand the fertility problems of couples and evaluate the adaptability of IVF treatment. During the evaluation of indications, doctors will also consult couples about the risks and possible side effects of IVF treatment. The doctor will explain in detail the problems that may be encountered in the treatment process and work with the couple to develop a treatment plan. At the same time, couples should also raise their questions and concerns so that doctors can give more accurate advice. The results of indication evaluation will have an important impact on the follow-up treatment plan. Doctors will make personalized treatment planning according to the evaluation results to improve the success rate of treatment.

2、 Ovulation induction

Ovulation promotion is to stimulate the ovary to release multiple follicles through drugs to increase the chance of fertilization. In real hospitals, doctors will carry out ovulation induction treatment according to the specific conditions of the couple. This usually includes the use of ovulation promoting drugs or hormones to assist in the development of follicles and the occurrence of ovulation. During treatment, doctors will adjust the dosage and time of drugs according to the results of ultrasonic monitoring and blood hormone examination to ensure the normal development of follicles and the quality of ovulation. In addition, doctors will also conduct a comprehensive assessment of the couple's physical conditions to avoid adverse reactions and complications. The ovulation induction process usually lasts 10-14 days, and the specific schedule will vary according to individual conditions. During this period, the couple needs to go to the hospital on time for inspection and treatment, and closely cooperate with the doctor's guidance.

3、 Egg taking, sperm treatment and embryo culture

Fetching eggs is one of the key steps in IVF procedure. At a specific time point, doctors will use ultrasound to guide the transvaginal puncture device into the ovary, puncture the follicle, and collect the eggs. This process is usually carried out in the operating room, and the patient will be under anesthesia. Couples also need to provide sperm samples. In the laboratory of the hospital, sperm will be treated to remove unhealthy, insufficient or low vitality sperm, and select the best sperm for subsequent embryo culture. After treatment of eggs and sperm, the doctor will fertilize the eggs and sperm in vitro to form a fertilized egg. These fertilized eggs will be transferred to a specific culture dish and placed in the incubator for embryo culture. In the process of culture, doctors will regularly check the development of embryos to assess their quality and suitability.

4、 Embryo transfer and follow-up observation

Embryo transfer is the last step in IVF treatment. In a real hospital, doctors will select the most promising one or several embryos for transplantation according to the quality and development of the embryos. The process of embryo transfer is usually painless and does not require anesthesia. After transplantation, the couple need to rest for a period of time and adjust their diet and living habits according to the doctor's instructions. Then, the couple needs to go to the hospital regularly for observation and pregnancy testing to confirm whether the pregnancy is successful. If the pregnancy is successful, the doctor will make a corresponding gynecological follow-up plan and conduct fetal ultrasound examination at an appropriate time. In a word, IVF procedures include indications evaluation, ovulation induction, egg retrieval, sperm treatment and embryo culture, embryo transfer and follow-up observation. Every link requires the close cooperation of doctors and couples to ensure the smooth progress and ultimate success of the treatment process.
