However, after IVF, couples still need to pay attention to some matters to ensure the smooth progress of the whole process and improve the healthy birth rate of infants. The following will elaborate on nutrition intake, drug use, daily life and psychological adjustment.
Nutrition intake
In IVF procedure, reasonable diet and healthy living habits are crucial to the quality of embryos and the health of mothers. First of all, women need to develop good eating habits, ensure balanced nutrition of food, and take in enough protein, vitamins and minerals, such as folic acid, iron, calcium, etc. Secondly, avoid smoking, alcohol, coffee and excessive intake of salt and sugar.
In addition, attention should be paid to avoiding possible environmental pollution in life, such as heavy metals, pesticides, chemicals, etc., which may have adverse effects on the embryonic development of IVF. Therefore, the exposure to these pollutants should be minimized to ensure the cleanness and safety of the surrounding environment.
In addition, during the IVF cycle, women also need to follow the doctor's advice and take supplements on time, such as folic acid, iron and other nutritional drugs that are beneficial to the health of embryos and mothers.
drug use
During IVF, doctors may prescribe some drugs, such as ovulation promoting drugs and hormone drugs, to help regulate women's menstrual cycle and promote ovulation. When using these drugs, couples should strictly follow the doctor's instructions and should not increase or decrease the dosage or interrupt the use. If any discomfort or doubt arises, consult a doctor immediately.
In addition, female friends should avoid using drugs that may have adverse effects on embryonic development in the process of IVF, such as some cold drugs, antipyretics and sedatives. If necessary, be sure to consult your doctor and inform him that he is receiving IVF treatment.
Male friends should also avoid long-term use of certain drugs, such as banned drugs or drugs that have a negative impact on reproductive function. If necessary, consult your doctor for advice so that you can take appropriate measures.
daily life
In daily life, couples need to pay attention to some details to ensure the smooth progress of IVF. First of all, we should avoid fatigue and physical overwork, reasonably arrange work and rest time, and avoid continuous high-intensity physical activities.
Secondly, we should keep our bodies clean and sanitary, and avoid infection and cross infection, especially in the key stages of egg retrieval, fertilization and transplantation. Wash hands regularly to keep private parts clean and reduce the risk of infection.
In addition, it is necessary to avoid long-term exposure to high temperature environment, such as taking hot springs, saunas or participating in high temperature yoga for a long time.
Psychological adjustment
In the process of IVF, it is not only a challenge to the body, but also a great psychological pressure. Couples should actively face difficulties and challenges, trust doctors' professional ability, and maintain good communication and support with each other.
In addition, properly participate in psychological counseling and psychological counseling activities to relieve tension and anxiety, and improve the healthy birth rate of infants through a positive and optimistic attitude.
To sum up, IVF is a complex and magical technology. Taking some precautions can increase the quality of embryos and improve the fertility success rate. Through good eating habits and nutrition intake, correct use of drugs, attention to details of daily life, and psychological adjustment, couples can better cope with various challenges in the process of IVF and successfully welcome the arrival of the baby.
