Do IVF infants need physical examination in the cycle?
As an assisted reproductive technology, IVF technology has solved the fertility problem for many couples and brought hope. However, is it necessary to have a physical examination before the IVF cycle? This is a question worth discussing. This article will elaborate from four aspects.
1. Physical examination can eliminate potential health problems
Physical examination can eliminate potential health problems during IVF cycle. For women, physical examination can check ovarian function, uterine health and endocrine status. If women suffer from ovarian cysts, endometriosis and other diseases, physical examination can be timely found and treated. For men, physical examination can check the quality and quantity of sperm and exclude problems such as abnormal sperm or low sperm count. Through physical examination, potential reproductive health problems can be found and solved in advance, and the success rate of IVF can be improved.
In addition, physical examination can also exclude some chronic diseases or hereditary diseases. One or both of the parents of IVF may carry some genetic disease genes, leading to an increased risk of disease in offspring. Through physical examination, genetic counseling and gene testing can be carried out to help couples understand their disease genes and reduce the risk of neonatal disease.
2. Physical examination can assess the individual's adaptability
IVF technology is not applicable to all couples. Physical examination can assess the degree of adaptation of individuals. For women, physical examination can evaluate the ovarian function, uterine condition and endocrine condition, and determine whether it is suitable for IVF. For example, if female ovarian function is significantly reduced or the endometrium is too thin, the success rate of IVF may be low. For men, physical examination can assess the quality and quantity of sperm. If the sperm is abnormal or insufficient, other assisted reproductive technologies may need to be considered. Through physical examination, we can evaluate the individual's fitness before entering the IVF cycle and select the most appropriate treatment scheme.
3. Physical examination can guide individual treatment plan
The results of physical examination can guide the individual's treatment plan. According to the physical examination results, doctors can develop personalized treatment plans to improve the success rate of IVF. For example, for women, if the ovarian function is poor, auxiliary drugs may be needed to promote follicular growth and ovulation. For men, if the sperm quality is poor, sperm screening and in vitro fertilization technology may need to be considered. Through physical examination, we can understand the reproductive health status of individuals and formulate targeted treatment plans to improve the success rate of IVF.
4. Physical examination can improve the safety of IVF
Physical examination can improve the safety of IVF. Through physical examination, patients with infectious diseases or other health problems can be found in advance to avoid cross infection and complications. In the IVF cycle, multiple ultrasound examinations, egg retrieval, embryo transfer and other operations may be required. If an individual has health problems such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, the risk of surgery may increase. Physical examination can eliminate these risk factors and protect the safety of IVF.
To sum up, it is necessary to have a physical examination before IVF enters the cycle. Physical examination can eliminate potential health problems, assess individual adaptation, guide individual treatment plans, and improve the safety of IVF. Through physical examination, we can improve the success rate of IVF and provide better guarantee for couples to realize their reproductive dreams.
