What are the IVF technologies provided by Beijing Maternity Hospital
Test tube baby technology is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which is widely used to solve the problem of infertility. As a professional obstetrics and gynecology hospital, Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital has provided a variety of IVF technologies to help many infertile couples achieve their reproductive dreams.
In vitro fertilization embryo transfer technology
In vitro fertilization embryo transfer (IVF-ET) is one of the most common IVF technologies. The whole process includes the following steps. First, women receive ovulation induction therapy to increase the production of prolactin or luteinizing hormone on the ovary. Then, doctors collect mature eggs from women and fertilize them with male sperm in vitro. The fertilized egg is cultured into an embryo in a petri dish, and then the embryo is transferred back to the female uterus to continue its development.
In vitro fertilization embryo transfer technology is applicable to infertility caused by various reasons, such as fallopian tube blockage, endometriosis, etc. This technology has a high success rate, so it is trusted by couples.
However, IVF-ET technology has certain considerations in terms of success rate and cost. The specific success rate varies from individual to individual, and for some couples, it may require multiple attempts. In addition, the cost of IVF-ET technology is relatively high, which requires couples to have certain financial ability to bear.
Egg donation technology
For some women, the egg donation technology provides an effective solution because the egg itself is unable to conceive. The technology of egg donation refers to taking out the eggs of young healthy women, fertilizing them with male sperm in vitro, and transplanting the fertilized eggs back to the uterus of women with no hope of pregnancy.
Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital cooperates with many high-quality egg supply institutions to ensure that high-quality eggs are obtained. Donors are strictly screened and tested to ensure the quality and health of their eggs. This technique is an effective help for women whose ovarian function declines due to age and other reasons.
However, there are also some disputes on the ethical and legal aspects of egg donation technology. Communication and consultation with donors need to be strengthened to ensure that the needs of infertile couples are met while ensuring the rights and interests of donors.
Sperm donation technology
Similar to the egg donation technology, the sperm donation technology refers to obtaining sperm from healthy men, combining it with the fertilized eggs of women, and then transplanting it back to the uterus of women with no hope of pregnancy. This technique is applicable to those couples whose men have sperm quality problems or cannot produce sperm.
Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital cooperates with several high-quality sperm supply institutions to ensure the quality and health of semen. This technology provides an effective help for infertile couples caused by sperm quality problems. However, like egg donation technology, sperm donation technology also needs to pay attention to ethical and legal issues.
Embryo freezing technology
Embryo freezing technology refers to the freezing and preservation of surplus embryos after in vitro fertilization for future use. This technology can help couples use the same embryo in multiple cycles and improve the success rate of IVF technology.
The use of embryo freezing technology needs to consider the preservation time and appropriate conditions of embryos. Proper preservation time can prolong the preservation period of embryos and improve the success rate of transplantation. In addition, the hospital needs to establish a perfect freezing system to ensure the safety and preservation quality of embryos.
In general, the IVF technology provided by Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital includes in vitro fertilization embryo transfer technology, egg donation technology, sperm donation technology and embryo freezing technology. These technologies have played an important role in solving the problem of infertility, bringing hope for many couples to have children.
