How to improve the success rate of IVF?
As a method to help infertile couples achieve fertility, IVF technology (assisted reproductive technology) has been widely used around the world. However, the success rate has always been the focus of attention. In order to improve the success rate of IVF, the medical community has made various efforts and research. This article will discuss how to improve the success rate of IVF from four aspects.
Optimized embryo selection technology
Embryo selection is one of the key steps in IVF. The success rate of IVF can be improved by optimizing embryo selection technology.
First, the conditions of embryo culture during in vitro fertilization should be precisely controlled. Some advanced IVF hospitals widely use continuous culture systems, which can simulate the environment in the mother's body, provide more stable and suitable culture conditions, and thus improve the development of embryos.
Secondly, the application of gene screening technology has greatly improved the accuracy of embryo selection. Through PGS (embryo chromosome screening) and PGD (single gene genetic disease screening) and other technologies, healthy embryos can be screened for transplantation, reducing the risk of embryo abnormalities, and improving the success rate of IVF.
Finally, it is also very important to choose the right time for embryo transfer. Some studies have shown that the successful rate of embryo transfer is higher when the embryo develops to the blastocyst stage. Therefore, it is of great significance to accurately judge the appropriate timing of embryonic development for improving the success rate of IVF.
Improve the intrauterine environment
The improvement of the intrauterine environment is critical to the success of IVF. Doctors can improve the intrauterine environment through the following methods.
First, treat potential diseases such as cervicitis and endometriosis reasonably. The existence of these diseases will affect the implantation and development of embryos and need active treatment.
Secondly, patients with abnormal shape of uterine cavity can be corrected by hysteroscopy. Operation can improve the shape of uterus and provide a better environment for embryo implantation.
Finally, some IVF hospitals use luteal support therapy. The supplement of progesterone can enhance the blood supply of endometrium, adjust the endocrine environment and improve the success rate of embryo implantation.
Enhance the patient's own physique
The patient's own physical condition also has an important impact on the success rate of IVF. In order to strengthen the patient's own physique, doctors can take the following measures.
First, establish a healthy lifestyle. Reasonable diet, sufficient sleep and moderate exercise all have a positive impact on the physical condition of patients.
Secondly, manage psychological pressure reasonably. The process of IVF is an important life for both husband and wife, and reasonable management of emotions and psychological pressure is critical to the improvement of success rate.
Finally, the patient can carry out some auxiliary treatments, such as acupuncture and moxibustion. The application of these traditional medicine can help to adjust the balance of yin and yang in patients and improve the success rate of IVF.
Strengthen the professional level of the medical team
Professional medical team is the key to improve the success rate of IVF. The hospital can strengthen the professional level of the medical team through the following measures.
First, continue to train medical staff. Medical knowledge and technology change with each passing day. Medical staff need to constantly learn and update knowledge to adapt to the development of technology.
Secondly, introduce advanced equipment and technology. The hospital can purchase the latest IVF equipment, introduce advanced assisted reproductive technology at home and abroad, and provide training for medical staff to improve their technical level.
Finally, establish a scientific and rigorous workflow. Through standardized workflow, work efficiency and quality can be improved to ensure that each step is properly implemented.
Summary
The success rate of IVF can be effectively improved by optimizing embryo selection technology, improving the intrauterine environment, enhancing the patient's own physique and strengthening the professional level of the medical team. However, each couple's situation is unique, and it is very important to choose the appropriate hospital and doctor for personalized treatment. It is hoped that with the continuous progress of medical technology, more and more infertile couples can realize their dreams of childbearing.
