Does IVF pregnancy success rate rise?
Test tube baby is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which helps many couples achieve their dream child. However, with the continuous progress of technology, has the success rate of IVF pregnancy also improved? This article will elaborate on this issue from many aspects.
1、 Advances in medical technology
First, the success rate of IVF has been greatly improved, mainly due to the progress of medical technology. For example, modern assisted reproductive technology uses more advanced media that can better simulate the natural environment in women's bodies, thus improving the survival rate and quality of fertilized eggs.
In addition, doctors have increasingly rich experience in IVF. They can more accurately choose the right time for embryo transfer, and optimize the pregnancy effect by adjusting hormone levels. These technologies and experience have greatly improved the success rate of IVF pregnancy.
In addition, some hospitals have introduced gene screening technology into IVF technology, which can detect whether embryos carry certain genetic diseases or chromosome abnormalities. In this way, doctors can choose healthy embryos for transplantation to further improve the success rate of IVF.
2、 Relationship between age and success rate
Age is an important factor that affects the success rate of IVF. The egg quality of women decreases with age, so the pregnancy success rate of older women is relatively low. However, with the development of technology, even older women may become pregnant through IVF technology.
For example, Peking Union Medical College Hospital has successfully helped many older women realize their IVF dream in recent years. By carefully regulating hormone levels and optimizing high-quality embryos, they have effectively improved the success rate of IVF for older women.
Therefore, although age is an important factor, with the progress of medical technology, older women also have the opportunity to successfully conceive.
3、 Influence of lifestyle
In addition to medical technology, the success rate of IVF pregnancy is also affected by lifestyle. The study found that life style factors such as excessive stress, poor eating habits, smoking and drinking will reduce the success rate of IVF.
Therefore, in order to improve the success rate of IVF, it is suggested that couples should maintain good living habits, keep a happy mood, avoid overwork, reasonably arrange diet, quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption. These healthy lifestyles can provide a favorable environment for the successful pregnancy of IVF.
4、 Imbalance of medical resources
Although the success rate of IVF has improved, there is still an imbalance in medical resources. The medical conditions and technical level in some developing countries or rural areas are relatively backward, resulting in a low success rate of IVF.
Therefore, in order to improve the success rate of IVF in the world, it is necessary to increase support and assistance to regions with unbalanced medical resources, improve their technical level and improve medical conditions.
summary
With the continuous progress of medical technology, the success rate of IVF pregnancy is increasing. The progress of medical technology, the relationship between age and success rate, the influence of lifestyle and the imbalance of medical resources are important factors affecting the success rate of IVF. Although there are still some challenges and imbalances, overall, the success rate of IVF has indeed increased.
