Do IVF babies need medical examination first?
As a kind of assisted reproductive technology, IVF technology is gradually receiving more and more attention in Lianyungang City. However, there are many discussions about whether it is necessary to have a physical examination before IVF. This article will discuss this problem from four aspects.
1. Understand the patient's physical condition
First, physical examination can help doctors understand the patient's physical condition and judge whether there are some potential health problems. Through physical examination, doctors can check the patient's reproductive system, endocrine level, blood samples and other indicators to assess whether it is suitable for IVF. For example, if a woman has severe uterine malformation or ovarian dysfunction, she may need to take other treatments instead of IVF.
Secondly, physical examination can find potential health problems and treat them in time. For example, patients may suffer from chronic diseases such as hypertension and diabetes, which may affect the success rate of IVF and the health status of patients. Through physical examination, doctors can find these problems in time, and conduct reasonable treatment and management.
Finally, through physical examination, doctors can also assess the mental health of patients. The IVF process may bring some psychological pressure and burden, so it is very important to evaluate the mental health of patients for providing psychological support and guidance.
2. Identify genetic disease risks
Physical examination can also help patients and doctors identify genetic disease risks. Through genetic counseling and gene testing, we can find out whether there are risks of some genetic diseases in patients or their families. Genetic counseling can help patients understand the risks and possible impacts of genetic diseases, and formulate corresponding plans and strategies according to specific circumstances.
If there is a clear risk of genetic disease, gene screening and embryonic genetic diagnosis may be required to select healthy embryos for IVF. This can effectively reduce the risk of genetic diseases in children and increase the success rate of IVF.
3. Improve the success rate of IVF
Careful physical examination can help doctors fully understand the physical condition of patients and develop personalized treatment plans according to specific conditions, thus improving the success rate of IVF. Through physical examination, doctors can assess women's ovarian reserve and follicular development, and select appropriate treatment time and drug hormone dosage to increase the chance of pregnancy.
In addition, physical examination can also assess the quality and quantity of male sperm, help to select the best semen treatment method and assisted reproductive technology, and thus improve the success rate of IVF.
4. Ensure the health and safety of patients
Finally, physical examination can ensure the health and safety of patients. The IVF process requires the use of drug hormones and surgical procedures, which have certain requirements on the patient's physical condition. Through physical examination, we can eliminate some potential health problems and avoid possible risks due to the treatment process.
For example, if the patient is found to have serious endometriosis during physical examination, it may be necessary to postpone the IVF to avoid the possible risks and complications during the operation.
Summary
To sum up, it is very necessary for Lianyungang City to have a physical examination before IVF. Through physical examination, we can understand the physical condition of patients, identify the risk of genetic diseases, improve the success rate of IVF, and ensure the health and safety of patients. Therefore, when considering IVF, physical examination is a crucial step.
