Operation instructions for IVF institutions
IVF technology is a complex and high-risk medical technology. It is very important to understand the surgical instructions before choosing IVF institutions for surgery. This article will introduce the operation instructions of IVF from the aspects of preoperative preparation, operation process, postoperative precautions and costs.
Preparation before operation
Before choosing an IVF institution for surgery, it is necessary to first understand the professionalism and qualifications of the institution. Qualified IVF institutions should have relevant medical qualifications and professional medical teams, such as the Reproductive Department of Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Beijing Tiantan Hospital IVF Center, etc.
Secondly, physical examination should be carried out in advance to ensure that the physical condition is suitable for IVF surgery. Test tube baby surgery has certain requirements for women's ovarian function and uterine status, and also has certain standards for men's semen quality.
Before the operation, it is also necessary to communicate with the doctor to understand the operation principle, operation steps, success rate and other information. In addition, it is also necessary to know the surgical expenses and medical insurance coverage in detail.
Operation process
IVF surgery mainly includes three steps: egg retrieval, fertilization and embryo transfer.
During the egg retrieval process, the doctor will take out the follicle from the ovary under the guidance of laparoscopy or B-ultrasound, and then use a thin tube to take the egg. The whole process generally needs to be completed under general anesthesia.
In the fertilization step, the doctor places the semen and eggs in the culture dish for natural or assisted fertilization, and the embryos in the culture dish will continue to be cultured in the incubator.
In the embryo transfer stage, doctors transfer well developed embryos into the uterus of women through vaginal or laparoscopic operations. After a successful embryo transfer, the patient needs to rest for a period of time.
Precautions after operation
After IVF surgery, patients should rest and recuperate according to the doctor's instructions. Pay attention to diet control, try to avoid spicy and stimulating food, maintain a comfortable mood, and avoid overwork.
During the period of taking progesterone drugs, you should take the drugs on time and in accordance with the amount, pay attention to the physical reaction, and seek medical advice in case of discomfort.
One or two weeks after the operation, it is necessary to see a doctor again, and determine whether pregnancy is confirmed by blood HCG test. If the test result is positive, the IVF operation is successful.
Expense related
The cost of IVF surgery is relatively high, including surgery costs, drug costs and monitoring costs.
The cost of surgery varies from institution to institution and region to region, generally more than 10000 yuan.
Drug cost is often a large expense, which may vary according to individual physical conditions and treatment plans.
In addition, we also need to consider the cost of testing and follow-up before and after surgery.

Before choosing an institution, patients should carefully understand their professionalism and qualifications, conduct physical examination, and fully communicate with doctors. The operation process includes three steps: egg retrieval, fertilization and embryo transfer. Patients should pay attention to rest and recuperation after operation. The cost of IVF surgery is relatively high, including surgery costs, drug costs and monitoring costs.
