Who can do IVF?
IVF is an assisted reproductive technology to promote fertility, which allows couples who cannot conceive naturally to realize their desire to have children. Although IVF technology has been widely used worldwide, not all people are suitable to accept this assisted reproductive technology. The following will elaborate on who can choose IVF from four aspects: age, fertility disorder, health status and psychological factors.
1. Age
Age is a decisive factor, especially in women. Generally speaking, female fertility gradually declines after the age of 30, especially after the age of 35. Therefore, for women over 35 years old, if they encounter difficulties in natural pregnancy, IVF may be an effective choice. However, age is not the only determinant, and men may also have fertility problems, so IVF technology is also applicable to young couples.
Age is not only applicable to women, but also the quality and quantity of male sperm will decline with age. Therefore, if young couples have sperm quality or quantity problems, they can also consider IVF technology.
However, as the doctor said, age is not the only limiting factor, and other fertility disorders also need to be considered.
2. Reproductive disorders
IVF is suitable for couples with multiple fertility disorders. For example, women may have problems such as fallopian tube blockage, uterine malformation or endometriosis, which will affect the combination of eggs and sperm, making pregnancy difficult. Through IVF technology, artificial fertilization, embryo transfer and other methods can be adopted to improve the probability of successful pregnancy.
On the male side, there may be problems with the quality or quantity of sperm, leading to difficulties in natural pregnancy. IVF technology can improve the probability of pregnancy by selecting high-quality sperm for artificial fertilization.
It is not ruled out that there are other fertility problems. Therefore, comprehensive health examination and professional consultation are required before choosing IVF technology.
3. Health
IVF is not suitable for all health conditions. Some basic diseases, such as heart disease, kidney disease, and severe diabetes, may have a negative impact on pregnancy and pregnancy process. Before IVF, a comprehensive physical examination must be carried out to ensure that the physical condition is suitable for this assisted reproductive technology.
In addition, overweight or underweight may also affect the success rate of IVF. Because too high or too low body mass index (BMI) may interfere with hormone levels, thus affecting the success rate of fertilization and embryo transfer.
4. Psychological factors
The IVF process is a long-term and tedious treatment process, which requires close cooperation and support between couples. Therefore, psychological factors are also one of the important factors to consider receiving IVF.
When couples are troubled by long-term infertility or habitual abortion, they may have emotional fluctuations, anxiety, depression and other psychological problems. Therefore, before choosing IVF technology, couples are advised to receive counseling and support to ensure that their psychological state is suitable for this complex treatment process.
summary
Test tube babies are suitable for couples who are older, have fertility disorders, are in suitable health conditions and have stable mental status. It is an effective assisted reproductive technology to help couples who are unable to conceive naturally achieve their reproductive aspirations. However, before choosing IVF technology, comprehensive physical examination and consultation must be carried out to ensure that the best treatment scheme can be provided.
