Medical examination before preparing test tube baby
IVF is achieved through in vitro fertilization technology, which requires a series of medical examinations to ensure smooth progress. Before preparing test tube babies, both the husband and wife need to go to a regular hospital for a comprehensive physical examination. These inspections include but are not limited to the following aspects.
First of all, both husband and wife need to carry out reproductive system function inspection. The doctor will conduct physical examination on both parties to find out whether there is any disease or abnormality of the reproductive system. Women need gynecological examination, including examination of uterus, ovary and other organs. Men need semen analysis to assess the quantity and quality of sperm.
Secondly, both husband and wife need to carry out genetic examination. This is to exclude the possibility of some hereditary diseases, so as to avoid passing disease genes on to the next generation. Genetic examination methods include gene sequencing, chromosome analysis, etc. According to the examination results, doctors can help couples make corresponding birth plans.
Finally, the couple also need to carry out some comprehensive physical examinations, including blood tests, psychological assessments, etc. The purpose of these examinations is to assess the physical and psychological status of the couple, so as to ensure that they have sufficient physical and mental preparation to face the whole process of IVF.
Find a suitable IVF hospital
Finding a suitable IVF hospital is an important step before preparing IVF. Couples can evaluate the choice of hospitals through the following aspects.
First, couples can understand the equipment and technical level of the hospital. IVF is a highly technology intensive medical technology, which requires advanced equipment and professional technical support. The success rate of IVF will be directly affected by whether the hospital equipment is complete and whether the doctor has rich experience.
Secondly, couples can consult other couples who have experience in IVF. They can share their experience and feelings in the process of IVF in a hospital to help couples make more intelligent decisions. In addition, couples can also search the hospital's evaluation and reputation through the Internet to understand the hospital's credibility and professional level.
Finally, couples also need to consider the geographical location and cost of the hospital. IVF is a long-term process, which may require multiple visits to the hospital for treatment or examination. Therefore, it will be more convenient to choose a hospital close to home. In addition, the cost of IVF is high, and couples need to choose the appropriate hospital according to their own economic situation.
Drugs and assistive technologies needed to prepare IVF
IVF needs to use some drugs and auxiliary technologies to promote ovarian ovulation and control the ovulation cycle. Before preparing test tube babies, couples need to purchase the necessary drugs and assistive technologies according to the doctor's advice.
In terms of drugs, the common ones include ovulation promoting drugs, progesterone, estrogen, etc. These drugs can help women produce more eggs and increase the chances of fertilization. In addition, auxiliary technologies, such as IVF pregnancy aids, can also be used to improve the success rate of IVF.
When purchasing drugs and assistive technologies, couples need to pay attention to the correct use and follow the doctor's advice. At the same time, couples also need to pay attention to the storage and use period of drugs, so as not to affect the efficacy.
Psychological preparation and family support
In the process of IVF, couples need to face many physical and mental challenges, so psychological preparation and family support are very important.
IVF not only needs to go through a series of medical processes, but also needs to pay a lot of time and energy. Couples need to make some changes to their physical conditions and lifestyle, such as quitting smoking, drinking, adjusting diet, etc. These changes may have a certain impact on the life of the couple, which requires mutual understanding and support between the couple.
In addition, couples also need to be mentally prepared to face the pressure and uncertainty in the process of IVF. During the whole process, couples can participate in psychological counseling or join a support group, communicate with other couples with similar experiences, and share their feelings and experiences.
summary
The preliminary work of preparing IVF requires a series of medical examinations, finding a suitable IVF hospital, preparing the necessary drugs and auxiliary technologies, as well as psychological preparation and family support. The completion of these works will guarantee the smooth progress of IVF. Therefore, both husband and wife should fully understand and attach importance to these works, actively cooperate with doctors, and work together to realize the dream of IVF.
