What is IVF treatment?
IVF treatment is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which is used to help couples who cannot conceive naturally achieve their fertility aspirations. In Chengdu, there are many professional medical institutions and doctors dedicated to providing IVF treatment services, such as Chengdu Reproductive Hospital.
The process of IVF treatment generally includes the following stages:
1. Ovulation promotion: use drugs to promote multiple ovulation of women and improve fertilization opportunities.
2. Egg taking: The eggs are taken out through painless puncture guided by transvaginal ultrasound.
3. Fertilization: In vitro fertilization of male sperm and retrieved eggs in the laboratory.
4. Embryo culture: culture the fertilized embryo for several days until it develops into an embryo with high implantation ability.
5. Intrauterine implantation: implant the cultured embryo into the uterus of a woman in the hope of a successful pregnancy.
How painful is the IVF treatment?
Many people are concerned about whether there is pain during IVF treatment. In fact, there is no strong pain in the whole process.
1. Ovulation promotion stage: During the medication period, some women may feel slight discomfort, such as breast pain, slight abdominal distension, etc., but usually will not affect normal life.
2. Egg retrieval: This step is usually carried out under anesthesia, so the patient will not feel any pain.
3. Fertilization and embryo culture: these steps are completely carried out in the laboratory without the participation of patients, so there is no pain feeling.
4. Intrauterine implantation: In this step, local anesthesia or sedatives are generally given to ensure that the patient has no pain and will only feel a little discomfort.
In general, the degree of pain during IVF treatment is controllable, and most patients can successfully complete the treatment.
Possible discomfort and side effects of IVF treatment
Although the degree of pain during IVF treatment is low, it may still bring some discomfort and side effects.
1. Ovulation promoting drugs may cause some side effects, such as headache, nausea, breast pain, etc.
2. There may be slight abdominal distension and abdominal pain after egg retrieval, but it will usually be relieved within one or two days.
3. Intrauterine implantation may cause a little paroxysmal mild abdominal pain and bleeding, but the symptoms usually disappear in a day or two.
4. Due to hormone therapy, some patients may experience emotional fluctuations, fatigue and other discomfort.
Although the above discomfort and side effects may have some impact on the patient's life and body, they are usually temporary and will not pose a serious threat to health.
