Beijing Union Medical College IVF

Beijing Union Medical College IVF refers to the IVF technology carried out in Beijing Union Medical College Hospital. IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, whose main purpose is to help couples who cannot conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams. As one of the most famous medical institutions in China, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, with advanced equipment and professional medical team, has become a leader in the field of IVF.

Steps of IVF

The whole process of IVF can be divided into five main steps:

1. Ovulation induction therapy

First, doctors will inject hormone drugs into the woman to promote ovarian development and egg production. This can improve the success rate of pregnancy. At the same time, doctors will conduct regular ultrasound examinations to monitor the condition of the ovary.

Once the follicle develops to the proper size, doctors will use drugs to trigger ovulation, which will rupture the follicle and release the egg. At this time, the woman is ready for an egg retrieval operation.

2. Egg retrieval

Egg retrieval is one of the core steps of IVF. During the operation, the doctor will use ultrasound guided fine needle to puncture the follicle and remove the egg. This process is generally carried out under general anesthesia, which is safe and painless.

The eggs taken out will be immediately sent to the laboratory for processing and the next step of operation.

3. Fertilization and culture

In the laboratory, the doctor will put the man's semen and the woman's eggs in the incubator for culture. Under normal circumstances, sperm will penetrate the surface of the egg and fertilize it. This process usually takes 24 hours.

The fertilized egg will continue to be cultured in the culture dish until it develops into an ovum taking embryo. Normally, doctors will choose the healthiest embryo for transplantation.

4. Embryo transfer

Embryo transfer is a key step in IVF. Before transplantation, the doctor will evaluate the quality of the embryo. Embryo transfer can be completed in vivo or by intraperitoneal injection of embryos. This process is relatively simple and generally does not require general anesthesia.

After embryo transfer, couples need to rest for a period of time, waiting for pregnancy results.

5. Pregnancy results

In the next few weeks, the couple will have a blood test to confirm the success of pregnancy. If the test results show that they are pregnant, then the couple need to continue to carry out prenatal examination regularly and follow the doctor's recommendations for precautions.

If the pregnancy fails, the couple can discuss the next treatment plan with the doctor.
