Pain degree of test tube baby reduction on pregnant women
Test tube baby is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which provides a hope for those couples with fertility problems. However, in some cases, IVF may need to be reduced to ensure the stability of pregnancy and the health of pregnant women and fetuses. However, people often question whether fetal reduction will bring pain to pregnant women. The following will discuss the pain degree of IVF reduction on pregnant women from both physical and psychological aspects.
Physical aspects
1. Anesthesia process: IVF reduction generally requires local or general anesthesia to ensure that pregnant women will not feel pain during the operation. The anesthesiologist will select the appropriate anesthesia mode according to the situation of the pregnant woman, and ensure the safety of the operation by monitoring the vital signs of the pregnant woman.
2. Operation process: IVF reduction is a minimally invasive operation, which is usually performed through vagina and does not require cesarean section. The operation takes a short time, usually within dozens of minutes. The doctor will use appropriate instruments to remove the redundant embryos and minimize the trauma to the uterus.
3. Postoperative recovery: After IVF reduction, pregnant women may feel some discomfort, such as abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, etc., but these symptoms are usually temporary and will gradually disappear with rest and recovery. The hospital will closely observe and care for pregnant women to ensure a smooth recovery after surgery.
Psychological aspects
1. Decision making pressure: whether it is a normal pregnancy or a test tube baby pregnancy, the decision to reduce the fetus is a difficult decision for pregnant women. Pregnant women need to carefully consider various factors, including their own physical condition, economic pressure, family support, etc. For some pregnant women, this decision may bring some pressure and anxiety.
2. Sadness and mourning process: IVF reduction may make pregnant women feel sad and painful, because it means losing part of their children. Pregnant women need to mourn and deal with this emotion. Hospitals usually provide psychological counseling and support services to help them get through this difficult period.
3. Psychological rehabilitation: IVF reduction may be a psychological trauma for some pregnant women. Therefore, in order to help pregnant women recover and relieve stress, hospitals usually provide psychological rehabilitation guidance and counseling services. Pregnant women can release their emotions, reduce anxiety, and gradually face and adapt to the new life state by communicating with professionals.
summary
IVF reduction may bring some physical and psychological pain to pregnant women. Physically, the operation process is relatively simple, the recovery time is relatively short, and the physical impact on pregnant women is relatively small. However, pregnant women may bear some pressure when making the decision to reduce their fetus, and need to go through the process of grief and mourning. Therefore, in order to alleviate the pain of pregnant women, it is very necessary for hospitals to provide comprehensive physical and mental support and counseling services before and after surgery.
