Early warning signal of IVF abortion
IVF abortion means that the embryo conceived under assisted reproductive technology is abnormal in early pregnancy and cannot continue to develop, leading to spontaneous abortion. For IVF patients, it is very important to understand the early warning signals of abortion so as to take timely measures to protect the health of embryos. The early warning signals of IVF abortion will be described in detail in terms of embryo related indicators, pregnant women's symptoms, abnormal physical signs, and ultrasonic examination results.
1. Embryo related indicators
The embryo related indicators of IVF are important indicators to evaluate the embryonic development, and their abnormal performance may indicate the risk of abortion. First, serum β- HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) level in normal pregnant women β- HCG level will gradually increase if the serum β- The slow or stagnant growth rate of HCG level may indicate abnormal embryonic development. In addition, progesterone (progesterone) is also a key indicator of embryonic development. The continuous decline of progesterone level after drug withdrawal may mean that the embryo cannot develop normally. In addition, we can also judge whether the development of the embryo is normal by observing the implantation of the embryo, the number of blastocysts, the heartbeat and other indicators.
For IVF patients, regularly monitor the changes of these indicators, and seek medical advice and treatment in time in case of abnormalities.
2. Pregnant women's symptoms
The warning signals of IVF abortion also include the symptoms of pregnant women themselves. Persistent abdominal pain, abdominal pain, backache, vaginal bleeding or abnormal increase of vaginal secretions in early pregnancy may be the omen of IVF abortion. Pregnant women may also feel weak, unwell and depressed, which are all signs that need to be alerted. In addition, some pregnant women will show signs of relief of breast pain, nausea and vomiting or disappearance before abortion. If the pregnant woman has the above symptoms, it is recommended to seek medical advice immediately for further examination.
3. Abnormal physical signs
In addition to the symptoms of pregnant women, abnormal physical signs are also one of the warning signals of IVF abortion. Pregnant women may have abnormal physical signs such as elevated temperature, elevated blood pressure or edema of lower limbs, which may indicate the occurrence of abortion. In addition, some patients will have abdominal tenderness, abdominal muscle tension and other peritoneal irritation symptoms before abortion. It is worth noting that these symptoms may also be caused by other diseases, so further examination is needed to determine the cause.
4. Ultrasonic inspection results
Ultrasonography is one of the important ways of early warning of IVF abortion. The development of embryos and changes in the uterus can be observed through ultrasound. In early pregnancy, if ultrasound examination shows that the embryo stops developing or the heart of the embryo stops, it may mean the occurrence of abortion. In addition, abnormal thickening of endometrium, abnormal increase of intrauterine contents or endometrial denudation may also indicate the risk of IVF abortion. Therefore, regular ultrasonic examination is essential.
To sum up, the early warning signals of IVF abortion mainly include abnormalities of embryo related indicators, pregnant women's symptoms, signs and ultrasonic examination results. Patients should monitor venous serum regularly β- HCG level and progesterone level, pay attention to the changes of their own symptoms and signs, conduct regular ultrasonic examination and consult with doctors, and take timely measures to protect the health of test tube babies. Only when early detection and timely treatment of early warning signals of abortion can the risk of abortion be minimized and the success rate of IVF be improved.
