IVF has now become one of the main ways to solve infertility, especially with the development of recent years and the steady increase of success rates. Every patient in need of IVF will ask many questions, mainly in several areas: Is it very painful? Is there any very great harm to the woman? The real traumatic operation in the IVF process is egg retrieval, but it is done under general anesthesia and the procedure takes only a few minutes, so it is not a problem anymore. On the other hand, the long duration of the injection may be more painful and difficult for some people to endure. So be prepared for long term injections. If you use the regular long protocol, the duration of the injections is close to 15-30 days from the beginning of the descending regimen until the pregnancy is preserved, and there are already oral and vaginal progesterone, which is much more convenient than the previous luteal support, so patients can not worry about it. There is no clear correlation between high doses of ovulatory drugs on ovarian tumors and uterine and breast tumors, but nevertheless, with the development of reproductive technology and newer concepts, the doses of ovulatory drugs used nowadays have been reduced, and the more follicles are promoted, the better, and newer protocols such as microstimulation and natural cycle protocols are starting to be used, especially for older patients. Many people know that women only ovulate once a month, but with IVF taking 10+ eggs at once, will the ovaries fail and menopause soon? This is also a concern for many people. In fact, in a natural menstrual cycle, although only one mature follicle ovulates, many small follicles die because there is no sufficient amount of follicle stimulating hormone, IVF is to use exogenous follicle stimulating hormone to make those small follicles that were originally going to be atretic grow up, so theoretically it does not affect the number of follicles in the entire ovarian reserve. Are there any problems with children born with IVF technology? Are they the same as normal ones? In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a process in which sperm and eggs are combined in vitro and then transferred back to the woman’s uterus after two days of incubation. During these few days, the fertilized egg has the ability to proliferate and repair itself. Studies have reported no significant difference in the malformation rate of children born through IVF compared to natural pregnancies. So since you choose IVF, you don’t need to worry too much, there are malformations in normal pregnancies, but they are only occasional and scattered, IVF doesn’t increase them, it’s enough to do regular prenatal checkups after pregnancy.
