Applicable population and conditions of IVF
Test tube baby is an important achievement of modern medical technology, which provides a way for couples who cannot conceive naturally to achieve their reproductive aspirations. However, not all couples are suitable for IVF. Next, the applicable population and conditions of IVF will be described from the aspects of age, disease status, women's uterus, etc.
Age
Age is an important factor in determining the suitability of IVF. Generally speaking, the success rate of IVF is higher for women under 35 years old and men under 40 years old. The growth of female age will lead to the decline of egg quality, which may affect the survival rate of embryos and the success rate of pregnancy. Therefore, if older couples want to have IVF, they may need to prepare for pregnancy in advance by freezing eggs or sperm.
In addition, too old women may also bring about an increased risk of early pregnancy abortion and other pregnancy problems. Therefore, for older couples, a comprehensive physical examination is required before IVF to ensure that the physical condition is suitable for IVF.
Disease status
Some specific disease conditions will also affect the applicability of IVF for couples. For example, women suffering from endometriosis, polycystic ovary syndrome and other diseases may lead to ovarian dysfunction, affect the quality and quantity of eggs, thus reducing the success rate of pregnancy. However, men with infertility symptoms such as abnormal sperm and azoospermia will also threaten the successful implementation of IVF. Therefore, before deciding to carry out IVF, both husband and wife need to receive a comprehensive physical examination to ensure that their physical conditions are suitable for IVF.
In addition to individual disease status, certain genetic diseases may also affect the applicability of IVF. If both husband and wife carry the gene of a genetic disease, their offspring may suffer from the corresponding genetic disease. In this case, IVF can remove embryos carrying genetic disease genes through gene screening and embryo selection technology, and improve the health of offspring.
Women's uterus
The health status of women's uterus also plays an important role in the successful implementation of IVF. The abnormal shape of a woman's uterus, the presence of uterine fibroids or other structural abnormalities of the uterus may affect the implantation of embryos and the development of pregnancy. Therefore, before IVF, women need to receive ultrasound and other relevant examinations to ensure that the health of the uterus is suitable for IVF.
mental health
The psychological pressure in the process of IVF is high, which requires the active cooperation and firm determination of both husband and wife. Therefore, people suitable for IVF should have good psychological quality and stability. In addition, couples also need to establish a good communication and support mechanism to face possible difficulties and setbacks together.
To sum up, the population suitable for IVF should meet the conditions of appropriate age, healthy physical condition, normal uterine morphology, etc. In addition, mental health is also an important consideration. Only after a comprehensive assessment of the physical and psychological conditions of both spouses can a reasonable treatment plan be made to improve the success rate of IVF.
