Applicable conditions of IVF
IVF is a method to achieve pregnancy and embryonic development through assisted reproductive technology. However, not every couple is suitable for IVF. This article will elaborate the applicable conditions of IVF from four aspects.
Physical health
First of all, the health status of both spouses is very important for the applicability of IVF. The woman needs to have normal structure and function of reproductive organs, without serious uterine problems, tubal obstruction and other diseases. The man needs to have normal sperm quantity and quality, without problems such as abnormal semen.
In addition, both husband and wife should be healthy, without chronic diseases and hereditary diseases. If one of the couples suffers from serious genetic diseases or incurable diseases, IVF may not be a suitable choice.
Finally, age is also an important factor. The woman should be under 35 years old and the man should be under 40 years old to ensure a high success rate of baby birth.
Infertility
IVF is mainly used for couples with infertility problems. For women, there may be fallopian tube obstruction, polycystic ovary syndrome and other problems, leading to difficulties in natural pregnancy. For men, there may be problems with the quantity or quality of sperm, and they cannot conceive naturally. In addition, if there is no clear reason for infertility between husband and wife, IVF can also be selected to improve the pregnancy rate.
Before IVF, the couple may receive a series of examinations and evaluations, including semen analysis, endocrine testing, ovarian function evaluation, etc., to determine the necessity and applicability of using IVF technology.
Psychological and financial support
IVF may be a long and hard process for both husband and wife. Therefore, both husband and wife need enough psychological support and positive attitude to face the challenges of drug treatment, surgery and other stages.
At the same time, IVF is also a relatively expensive treatment. Both husband and wife need to have enough financial capacity to pay for treatment. In addition, the success rate of IVF may not be high, and couples need to be prepared to face possible failure and the possibility of trying again.
Hospitals and professional teams
IVF needs to be carried out under the guidance of formal hospitals and professional teams. It is very important to choose a hospital with rich experience and professional technology.
In China, well-known hospitals such as Peking Union Medical College Hospital and Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine all have high IVF success rates and professional teams. When choosing a hospital, both husband and wife can refer to the reputation, professional qualifications and past success stories of the hospital.
Summary
As an assisted reproductive technology, IVF is suitable for couples who have infertility problems and meet certain conditions. These conditions include physical health status, infertility status, psychological and financial support, and selection of formal hospitals and professional teams. Only when these conditions are met can IVF be considered as an appropriate choice and an effective solution.
