How painful is IVF
IVF is a kind of fertility assistant technology, which can be used to store the embryo under low temperature for future implantation into the mother. For this technology, people often worry about whether the embryo will feel pain during the frozen embryo process. In fact, the embryo will not feel any pain during the frozen embryo process.
First of all, the embryonic nervous system is not fully developed in the early stage of frozen embryo, lacking sensory organs and pain transmission channels. Therefore, frozen fetuses do not produce painful feelings for embryos.
Secondly, the professional technology and equipment used in the frozen embryo process can ensure that the embryo will not be damaged. Frozen embryo is usually carried out in specific medical institutions, which are equipped with high-quality freezing equipment and advanced embryo preservation technology. The professional team will strictly monitor and control the embryos to ensure that parameters such as temperature and speed are adjusted within a safe range, so as to protect the growth and development of embryos to the greatest extent.
In addition, cryoprotectants are also used in the frozen embryo process to reduce the metabolic activity of the embryo and reduce possible freezing damage. The components in the protectant can effectively protect the structure and function of embryonic cells and prevent embryonic tissues from being damaged by freezing. These protective agents have been verified in clinical practice, with high safety and reliability.
Anesthesia measures needing attention
Although the embryo will not feel pain during frozen embryo implantation, the mother may be slightly anesthetized during embryo implantation. The purpose of anesthesia is to ensure comfort and safety during operation.
First, local anesthesia is often used for frozen embryo surgery, and local injection of anesthetics is used to relieve pain and discomfort. This kind of anesthesia can effectively control the pain of patients and make the operation process more stable.
In addition, some cases may require general anesthesia. General anesthesia is to make the patient feel no pain and unconscious through intravenous injection of anesthetic or anesthetic gas. Under general anesthesia, patients have no sense of the operation process, and doctors can operate better.
No matter which anesthesia method is used, doctors will make a comprehensive assessment according to the specific situation of the patient and the operation requirements, and select the most appropriate anesthesia method to ensure the smooth operation and the safety of the patient.
Fragments exist in real hospitals
In terms of frozen embryo technology, there are many well-known hospitals and research institutions around the world to provide services. For example, Johns Hopkins Hospital in the United States, London Women's Hospital in the United Kingdom and Peking Union Medical College Hospital in China are medical institutions with high reputation in the field of reproductive medicine, which can provide IVF services.
These hospitals have rich experience in frozen embryo technology research and clinical application, and have first-class equipment and professional teams. By choosing these well-known hospitals for IVF, you can operate more safely and safely.
Summary
In the process of IVF frozen embryo, the embryo will not feel pain, because its nervous system is not fully developed, and under the monitoring and protection of professional technology and equipment, the embryo can be safely stored in a low-temperature environment. During embryo implantation, the mother may be anesthetized to ensure the smooth operation and the comfort of the patient. Choosing a well-known hospital for IVF can ensure the safety and reliability of the operation.
