Advantages of Hysteroscopy in IVF
Hysteroscopy is a kind of technology to enter the uterine cavity through hysteroscopy for examination. It has many advantages in IVF treatment. This article will discuss the advantages of IVF from four aspects: success rate, postoperative recovery, reducing complications and providing accurate diagnosis.
1. Improve the success rate of IVF
Hysteroscopy can help to assess the health of endometrium, including thickness, smoothness and gland distribution. These factors are crucial for embryo implantation. Through hysteroscopy, doctors can observe the subtle changes in the endometrium, timely discover and deal with some problems that affect embryo implantation, such as polyps, weak endometrium or other abnormalities, so as to improve the success rate of IVF.
In addition, hysteroscopy can also help doctors accurately locate the uterine orifice and catheter to ensure the smooth placement of embryos in the uterine cavity. This is also very helpful to make up for the decline in IVF success rate caused by other factors.
2. Rapid recovery after operation
Compared with traditional open surgery, hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive technique with small incision and light trauma. Hysteroscopy usually only requires local anesthesia. The operation time is short, the patients have less pain after operation, and recover quickly after discharge.
Generally speaking, within a few hours after the operation, the patient can resume self-care and eat normally. It can not only avoid the postoperative complications of traditional surgery, such as infection and poor wound healing, but also reduce the psychological pressure of patients.
3. Reduce complications
Hysteroscopy can reduce some possible complications in IVF treatment. It avoids the risk of organ damage caused by open surgery and reduces the risk of postoperative infection. At the same time, it reduces the damage to the surrounding tissues during the operation, helps to reduce the formation of postoperative adhesion, and improves the safety of IVF treatment.
During hysteroscopy, doctors can more accurately deal with abnormal findings in the uterus with the help of high-resolution images and magnifiers, and have the opportunity to protect the uterine cavity and endometrium as much as possible. This also means fewer complications and faster recovery and recovery.
4. Provide accurate diagnosis
Hysteroscopy is a method of directly observing the uterine cavity and endometrium. Through real-time observation, doctors can directly see the pathological changes in the uterus, such as polyps, fibroids, adenomyosis, and other factors that affect the success of pregnancy. Through hysteroscopy, doctors can determine in real time whether further treatment intervention is needed, such as polypectomy, repair of uterine septum or removal of endometriosis.
Compared with other examination methods, the results of hysteroscopy are more accurate and reliable, enabling doctors to provide more accurate diagnosis and treatment for patients. This is critical to the success rate of IVF.
summary
Hysteroscopy has many advantages in IVF treatment. It can improve the success rate of IVF, help assess the health status of endometrium, and accurately diagnose the pathological changes in the uterus. At the same time, hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive technique, which can recover quickly and reduce the risk of surgical complications. Therefore, hysteroscopy has become an indispensable and important step in IVF treatment.
