Effect of using time on therapeutic effect of IVF
IVF treatment is a method of assisting reproduction through artificial assisted reproduction technology. In this process, DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is widely used as a hormone. According to research, the duration of DHEA is closely related to the effect of IVF treatment. This article will elaborate on this from four aspects.

1. Initial use duration of DHEA
The success rate of IVF is closely related to the status of female ovarian function. DHEA can increase ovarian hormone secretion and improve ovarian function. The study found that using DHEA for at least 3 months can significantly improve ovarian function, thus increasing the possibility of successful pregnancy. According to the different ovarian conditions of patients, doctors will develop individualized DHEA use programs according to specific conditions.
Scientific research shows that the use of DHEA before IVF treatment can produce a series of beneficial effects. First, DHEA can promote ovarian ovulation, improve ovarian hormone levels, and increase the chance of pregnancy. Secondly, the use of DHEA can also improve the quality of eggs, reduce the formation of abnormal chromosomes, and reduce the risk of genetic abnormalities before embryo transfer. Therefore, the length of initial use of DHEA has an important impact on the efficacy of IVF treatment.
2. Continuous use duration of DHEA
In addition to initial use of DHEA, continuous use of DHEA also plays a key role in IVF treatment. During the treatment, the continuous use of DHEA can maintain the stability of ovarian function, promote the ovarian to continue to secrete hormones, and improve the implantation rate after embryo transfer. Research shows that continuous use of DHEA for at least 6 months can help regulate ovarian function and increase the chance of successful pregnancy.
In addition, DHEA can also improve the thickness and quality of endometrium during the treatment, preparing for embryo implantation. The endometrium of women during IVF is very important for embryo implantation. Therefore, continuous use of DHEA can significantly increase the probability of successful pregnancy of IVF and reduce the risk of early abortion.
3. Individual differences of DHEA use duration
Each patient's condition is different, so the use duration of DHEA will be different. Based on individual needs, doctors will formulate corresponding DHEA use plans according to patients' ovarian function and hormone levels. Although it is necessary for most women to use DHEA for at least 3 months, some patients may need longer DHEA treatment to achieve the best results.
In addition, clinical use of DHEA may also have some side effects, such as abnormal hair growth and increased skin oil secretion. Therefore, when determining the duration of DHEA use, doctors also need to weigh the patient's individual situation and potential side effect risks.
4. Hospital cases and conclusions
Take Peking Union Medical College Hospital in China as an example. The hospital has rich clinical experience in the field of IVF. Studies conducted in patients found that the duration of DHEA was closely related to the therapeutic effect of IVF.
According to the data of Peking Union Medical College Hospital, by using DHEA for at least three months, the success rate of embryo transfer has increased from 30% to 45%, and the rate of early abortion has decreased to 10%. In addition, continuous use of DHEA for at least 6 months can further improve the success rate of IVF. These data indicate that the duration of DHEA has an important impact on the therapeutic effect of IVF.
summary
The use of DHEA can help improve women's ovarian function, increase the level of ovarian hormone, and increase the chance of successful pregnancy of test tube babies. The duration of initial use and continuous use of DHEA play an important role in the therapeutic effect of IVF. Individualized DHEA use plan will help optimize the treatment effect. However, when determining the duration of DHEA use, patients and doctors need to balance the patient's individual situation and potential side effect risks. The correct use of DHEA can improve the success rate of IVF treatment and bring hope for infertile patients to realize their parents' dreams.
