What are the suitable choices for postmenopausal women to do IVF?
Menopause is an important turning point in women's physiology, usually between 40 and 60 years old. At this stage, women's ovarian function gradually declines, no longer ovulate, and the level of hormone secreted decreases. However, many women are still eager to have their own children after menopause. With the help of modern medicine, IVF technology provides a possibility for menopausal women to realize their reproductive aspirations. This article will analyze four important aspects of menopausal women in choosing IVF.
Select the right technology
For postmenopausal women, it is very important to choose the appropriate IVF technology. There are two main techniques to choose from, namely, autotransplantation of ovary and in vitro fertilization. Autologous ovarian transplantation is to transplant the frozen eggs of women back into the body, and then conduct in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer; In vitro fertilization is the transfer of eggs and sperm back to the uterus after in vitro fertilization. According to the actual situation of postmenopausal women and the doctor's advice, choose the appropriate technology.
Autologous ovarian transplantation is suitable for older postmenopausal women with better ovarian function. This technique can avoid the use of exogenous hormones, reduce the stimulation of endometrium, and also reduce the burden of hormones. On the other hand, IVF is more suitable for menopausal women with poor ovarian function and younger age. The use of exogenous hormones can stimulate ovarian ovulation and increase the possibility of successful pregnancy.
Select the right hospital
Choosing a suitable hospital is the key to the success of IVF. First, choose a hospital with good reputation. You can refer to others' experience, consult doctors' professional opinions, and consult the hospital's relevant data and success rate report. Secondly, we should choose a hospital with advanced equipment and mature technology. IVF technology requires high-precision equipment and professional operating skills. Therefore, selecting a hospital with advanced equipment and rich experience will increase the success rate.
Take Peking Union Medical College Hospital as an example. The hospital has a world-class IVF technology team and advanced medical equipment. Through the use of the latest assisted reproductive technology and personalized treatment programs, Union Medical College Hospital has successfully helped many postmenopausal women achieve their reproductive aspirations.
Reasonably arrange living habits
Before carrying out IVF, menopausal women need to reasonably arrange their living habits to increase the chance of successful pregnancy. First of all, we should maintain regular work and rest time to ensure adequate rest and sleep. Secondly, we should pay attention to a balanced diet, take in enough nutrition, and reduce high calorie and high-fat foods. In addition, avoid alcohol, tobacco and caffeine intake, and try to reduce stress and stress. Finally, we should develop good exercise habits. Proper exercise can promote blood circulation and health.
Psychological support and family cooperation
Menopause women need psychological support and family members' cooperation in the process of IVF. The process of IVF will bring some pressure on women's physical and mental health. Participation in psychological counseling and support groups can help women cope with anxiety, stress and mood fluctuations. The care and understanding of family members are also crucial. Their support can make women feel more secure and confident.
In conclusion, postmenopausal women can choose appropriate techniques for IVF, such as autotransplantation of ovary or in vitro fertilization. When selecting hospitals, reputation and technical level should be considered. Reasonable arrangement of living habits, psychological support and family cooperation are also important factors for successful IVF. Through the above efforts, menopausal women can realize their dream of having their own children.
