Time Cycle of the Third Generation IVF in Beijing
IVF technology is one of the important ways to help couples who are unable to conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams. Compared with the previous two generations, the third generation IVF technology has a higher success rate and shorter cycle in the field of assisted reproductive technology. Next, we will introduce the time cycle of the third generation of Beijing IVF in detail from four aspects: preparation before treatment, in vitro fertilization, embryo culture and transplantation.
1、 Preparation before treatment
Before the third generation IVF technology treatment, doctors will conduct a comprehensive physical examination and assessment of the couple to ensure that their physical conditions are suitable for IVF treatment. It usually includes semen analysis, hysteroscopy and other auxiliary examinations. In addition, the woman also needs to take ovulation promoting drugs to improve the ovulation rate. The period of preparation before treatment is about 1-2 months.
The cycle time of preparation before treatment may vary depending on the couple's physical condition and the hospital's work arrangement.
2、 In vitro fertilization process
In vitro fertilization is one of the core links of the third generation IVF technology. The doctor will determine the time of taking eggs according to the specific conditions of the female ovulation cycle. Women need to be treated with ovulation promoting drugs before taking eggs, so that the ovaries produce multiple mature follicles. The egg retrieval process is usually carried out in the operating room and requires anesthesia. Men need to provide fresh semen during this period. After taking the egg, the doctor combines the egg with the sperm in vitro and forms the embryo after several days of culture.
The whole IVF process is usually completed within 2-3 weeks.
3、 Embryo culture
Embryo culture is the next step after successful in vitro fertilization, and doctors will cultivate embryos to the appropriate stage of development. The training time varies according to individual differences, and generally takes 5-6 days. Doctors will select the best embryo for transfer according to the quality and development of the embryo.
In addition, if patients undergo genetic diagnosis before in vitro fertilization, additional time is needed to wait for genetic results.
4、 Embryo transfer
After embryo culture, doctors will select the best quality embryos for transplantation. The specific transplant time will be determined according to the women's cycle and the doctor's recommendations. The transfer process is usually painless, and the embryo is placed into the uterus through a catheter. After transplantation, patients need to take progesterone or other luteinizing hormone drugs to help embryo implantation and pregnancy.
After embryo transfer, the patient needs to wait about two weeks for maternal blood HCG test to confirm whether the pregnancy is successful.
Summary
The time cycle of the third generation IVF in Beijing is roughly divided into: preparation before treatment, in vitro fertilization, embryo culture and embryo transfer. It usually takes 1-2 months for preparation before treatment, 2-3 weeks for IVF, 5-6 days for embryo culture, and two weeks for maternal blood HCG detection after embryo transfer. The whole cycle time varies due to individual differences and hospital arrangements. Through the third generation of IVF technology, many couples have successfully realized their dreams of childbearing.
