Overview of IVF risks
In vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer (ET) in assisted reproductive technology (ART) is a birth mode brought about by scientific and technological progress. In Hengyang City, like other places, IVF is also an unusual way of birth. Although IVF helps some couples realize their dreams of procreation, it also comes with certain risks. This article will elaborate on the risks of IVF in Hengyang from many aspects.
Risk of congenital genetic diseases
IVF technology improves the fertility opportunities of infertile couples through artificial fertilization and embryo transfer. However, due to the complexity of genetic genes, sometimes it will lead to the risk of embryos carrying some congenital genetic diseases. These diseases may include chromosome abnormalities, hereditary diseases, etc. In the IVF diagnosis and treatment center in Hengyang City, doctors will detect embryos through gene screening and other means to reduce these risks.
However, even if genetic screening is carried out, the risk of congenital genetic diseases cannot be completely excluded. Embryos with these diseases may cause irreversible effects on the health and quality of life of children after birth.
In a word, for the risk of congenital genetic diseases, IVF technology provides a certain screening means, but it still requires couples to be more cautious when considering IVF, and accept relevant genetic counseling and testing.
Risk of multiple pregnancies
IVF technology often requires multiple embryos to be cultivated in the IVF stage, which helps to improve the success rate. However, during embryo transfer, doctors usually implant multiple embryos into the uterus at the same time to improve the chance of pregnancy. Implantation of multiple embryos increases the risk of multiple pregnancies.
Multiple pregnancy will increase the health risk of mother and fetus. The mother may face problems such as hypertension, anemia, anemia and prenatal depression, while the fetus may have premature delivery, low birth weight and abnormal development.
The IVF center in Hengyang City usually controls the number of embryos implanted according to the couple's situation and the doctor's advice to reduce the risk of multiple pregnancy.
Risk of psychological stress
IVF is a challenging birth process for couples, which may lead to psychological pressure. In the process of IVF in Hengyang City, couples may experience many failed attempts, which will bring them depression and mood fluctuations.
In addition, IVF technology and treatment process may require a series of drugs and surgical treatment, expensive drugs and high medical costs, which will also bring financial pressure to couples.
For the psychological pressure of IVF, the IVF Assisted Fertility Center in Hengyang City usually provides psychological counseling and support, and provides couples with necessary psychological advice and help in the process of IVF.
Other risks
In addition to the above risks, there are other risks in the IVF diagnosis and treatment center in Hengyang City, such as infection risk, injury risk in the process of egg extraction, etc. Although these risks are small, couples still need to fully understand and consider them.
Summary
IVF technology is an advanced way of reproduction, which has made remarkable achievements. However, in Hengyang City, IVF also has certain risks, including the risk of congenital genetic diseases, multiple pregnancy, psychological stress, etc. When choosing IVF, couples need to fully understand these risks and fully communicate and discuss with doctors to make wise decisions.
