Specific operation process of IVF

Test tube baby refers to the baby obtained through in vitro fertilization technology assisted reproduction. With the support of modern medical technology, IVF has become a choice for many infertile couples to achieve their reproductive aspirations. The specific operation process of IVF will be introduced in detail below to help more people have a more comprehensive understanding of the process.

Hospital screening and preparation

Before preparing for IVF, infertile couples need to go to formal hospitals for examination and screening to determine whether IVF technology can be carried out. First, the doctor will evaluate the reproductive health of both sides, and understand the couple's medical history and infertility related conditions. Then, women were examined for endocrine, uterine cervix status and ovarian function. For men, semen analysis and testicular function examination were performed. According to the examination results, the doctor will formulate a personalized treatment plan and inform the couple of the matters needing attention in the process of IVF. In addition, the couple also needs to complete a series of preparatory work, such as making life rules, maintaining a good psychological state and making necessary weight adjustment. These preparations are crucial to the success of the surgical process and the high-quality embryo culture.

Egg collection and sperm preparation

On the day of IVF operation, women will receive ovarian stimulation to promote the growth and development of multiple follicles. The doctor will determine the appropriate ovarian stimulation program according to the situation of women, and monitor during the stimulation process. The stimulation cycle is generally 10-14 days. When the follicle develops to a certain size, the doctor will determine the best time for egg collection through B-ultrasound. Egg collection is generally carried out in the operating room. The doctor inserted a slender ultrasonic guide needle into the vagina to puncture the ovary and suck out the eggs. This process generally requires general anesthesia. The eggs collected will be immediately handed over to laboratory personnel for subsequent operations. Sperm preparation is a male part of the operation. The man provides fresh semen or obtains sperm through surgery. Laboratory staff will process semen and extract high-quality sperm for subsequent fertilization process.

In vitro fertilization and embryo culture

Put the collected eggs and sperm in the culture dish, and fertilize and fuse the eggs by in vitro fertilization. This is usually a technique of directly injecting sperm into an egg, also known as egg fertilization (IVF). After fertilization, the eggs will enter the incubator for culture, allowing the embryo to develop in a suitable environment. Doctors usually choose the most promising embryos for transplantation or cryopreservation. The time of embryo culture is generally 3-5 days.

Embryo transfer and pregnancy testing

After 3-5 days of embryo culture, the doctor will transfer the embryo back to the female uterus. This is a simple process, usually without general anesthesia. The doctor will use a slender tube to gently place the embryo into the uterus. After transplantation, women need to rest in bed for a period of time and follow the doctor's advice for proper rest and diet. About two weeks later, women will have a pregnancy test to confirm whether the pregnancy is successful. If the result is positive, it means that the IVF process is successful and the woman enters the pregnancy stage. At this time, the doctor will adjust the rehabilitation plan of obstetrics and gynecology, and carry out related pregnancy management and prenatal examination. In a word, the specific operation process of IVF includes four main aspects: hospital screening and preparation, egg collection and sperm preparation, in vitro fertilization and embryo culture, embryo transfer and pregnancy detection. This series of processes need precise operation and rigorous management to ensure the success rate of IVF and the quality of embryonic development. The continuous development of IVF technology provides a feasible way for infertile couples to realize their reproductive dreams.
