Risk of test tube babies in Fujian
IVF is a method to help infertile couples realize their reproductive dreams through assisted reproductive technology. The medical level in Fujian is relatively high, with many professional IVF hospitals. However, even in technologically advanced hospitals, IVF still has certain risks. This article will elaborate on the risks of Fujian IVF from four aspects.
Risk of hormone therapy
IVF needs hormone therapy to promote egg development and ovulation process. However, this treatment may cause a series of side effects. First of all, hormone therapy may cause ovarian hyperstimulation, which may lead to ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), which may be life-threatening in severe cases. Secondly, hormone therapy may lead to emotional fluctuations, abdominal distension, breast pain and other side effects, affecting the quality of life of patients. In addition, hormone therapy may also increase the risk of patients suffering from gynecological diseases, such as breast hyperplasia, endometriosis, etc.
Risk of operation
In the process of IVF, multiple operations are required, including ovarian puncture, embryo transfer, etc. These operations may cause infection, bleeding and other complications. Especially for ovarian puncture surgery, there may be risks of complications such as ovarian cyst and ovarian torsion. In addition, in the process of embryo transfer, improper operation may lead to embryo transfer, endometrial damage and other problems, affecting the success rate of IVF.
Risk of genetic diseases
In vitro babies usually need to screen embryos without genetic diseases through genetic testing of embryos for transfer. However, even if genetic testing is carried out, there are still some risks. First of all, the accuracy of gene detection technology is limited, and there may be missed diagnosis or misdiagnosis. Secondly, some genetic diseases may not have clear genetic markers and cannot be screened through gene testing. In addition, there may be uncertainties in the results of gene testing, which cannot completely exclude the possibility of embryos suffering from genetic diseases.
Risk of psychological stress
IVF is a major fertility decision for both husband and wife, which will bring them great psychological pressure. First of all, the treatment process of IVF is long and complex, and couples need to endure the pain and discomfort of physical examination, hormone therapy, surgery and other processes. Secondly, patients need to constantly suffer from treatment failure or pregnancy abortion, which has a significant impact on their mental health. In addition, IVF treatment may also cause financial pressure between couples, tension in family relations and other issues.
To sum up, the risks of Fujian IVF mainly include the side effects of hormone therapy, the risk of complications of surgical procedures, the risk of screening genetic diseases and the risk of psychological stress. Although IVF hospitals in Fujian are technologically advanced, patients still need to fully understand these risks, make decisions under the guidance of doctors, and provide necessary psychological counseling to cope with potential difficulties and setbacks.
