Is the Third Generation IVF at High Risk in Shenzhen
In recent years, with the continuous progress of science and technology, the medical level of Shenzhen has also made great progress, among which the third-generation IVF technology has attracted much attention. However, people have some doubts about whether there are risks in this technology. This article will elaborate on the risks of the third generation IVF in Shenzhen from the aspects of maternal health, infant physical development, psychological impact before and after childbirth, and social ethics and moral standards.
Maternal health risks
In the process of the third generation of IVF, the body of pregnant women will bear certain risks. First of all, the use of receptor hormones may lead to hormone imbalance, resulting in menstrual disorders, emotional instability and other problems. In addition, egg retrieval surgery has certain surgical risks, which may lead to infection or bleeding and other complications. It is also important that long-term use of ovulation promoting drugs may cause damage to ovarian function and increase the risk of infertility. Therefore, before the third generation of IVF, doctors need to conduct a comprehensive assessment of pregnant women to ensure that they can operate when their physical conditions permit.
In addition, pregnant women also have risks during pregnancy. Especially in the case of multiple pregnancies, women may face a higher risk of miscarriage or premature delivery. Multiple pregnancy will increase the incidence of fetal hypoplasia, low birth weight and other problems. Therefore, pregnant women should understand and accept these potential risks before carrying out the third generation IVF.
Infant physical development risk
The assisted reproductive technology of the third generation IVF will affect the physical development of infants. First, embryo transfer technology may lead to problems such as malformations and defects in infants. Some studies have also shown that the risk of certain diseases in the case of IVF pregnancy may be higher than that in the case of natural pregnancy. In addition, IVF babies may face premature delivery, low weight and other problems, which will have a certain impact on their development.
However, it should be noted that these risks are not universal, but vary according to individual conditions. The progress of modern medical equipment and the increasingly mature technology enable doctors to better assess and control these risks. Therefore, when choosing the third generation IVF technology, it is recommended that the parents of the baby fully communicate with the doctor to understand and weigh the risks and benefits.
Risk of psychological impact before and after childbirth
The process of carrying out the third generation of IVF may also have a certain impact on the mental health of both spouses. First of all, for infertile couples, IVF that has experienced many failures may bring them great psychological pressure and disappointment. In addition, although successful pregnancy can bring joy and satisfaction, both husband and wife may face more challenges in the face of infant rearing pressure, family role change and other aspects.
In view of these problems, it is suggested that both husband and wife should receive psychological guidance and support before IVF, so as to cope with psychological pressure and adapt to new family roles. In addition, communication and support between husband and wife are also very important. They should understand and care for each other and face difficulties together.
Risk of social ethics
With the popularity of the third generation of IVF, the problems of social ethics and moral standards have gradually emerged. First, because IVF technology is still relatively new, the discussion of its ethical issues is still incomplete. For example, there is no consensus on whether infertile couples have the right to select good genes for screening and require doctors to "customize babies".
In addition, the popularity of IVF technology may also lead to unbalanced distribution of social resources. Rich families are more likely to access this technology, while poor families may not be able to enjoy the same opportunities due to high costs, which aggravates social injustice.
To sum up, Shenzhen's third-generation IVF technology has certain risks in maternal health, infant physical development, psychological impact before and after childbirth, and social ethics and moral standards. However, with the continuous progress of medical science and technology and the increasing attention of society, these risks are gradually being controlled and mitigated. Therefore, when choosing whether to carry out the third generation IVF, it is necessary to carefully consider the individual's situation, and fully discuss and make decisions with doctors. At the same time, the society should continue to strengthen the supervision of this field and the formulation of ethical standards to ensure a fair, just and safe medical environment.
