However, what kind of preparation is needed for the uterus before the IVF transplant?
I believe that after reading the following text, it can help you better understand the test tube baby in the United States and better prepare for pregnancy.
Endometrial ultrasound morphology (including endometrial thickness, echo, blood flow, etc.) is an important evaluation index to judge the implantation window period of embryo transfer.
Ultrasound shows that the thickness of the normal endometrial implant window is generally between 7-10mm, the volume should not be less than 2ml, and the endometrial energy Doppler area is more than 5㎜.
Many studies have shown that if a woman’s endometrium is not thick enough, it is not conducive to women’s pregnancy. When the thickness of the endometrium is 8mm, the embryo is most likely to be implanted. It does not matter if it is lower than 8mm.
When the thickness of the female endometrium is not enough to conceive, generally different methods will be tried for treatment. But what if the problem persists?
age
solution:
Usually supplemented with growth hormone to regulate
Hormone secretion
solution:
Estrogen supplementation from the second day of menstruation
Corpus luteum function
solution:
Progesterone hormone supplementation after ovulation
Intimal injury
solution:
Treatment of cold instruments under hysteroscope, endometrial transplantation is needed in severe cases
The second option is to continue the transplant.
Thin endometrium does not necessarily mean that pregnancy is impossible, but the pregnancy success rate may be reduced. This attempt is mainly to use this opportunity to conduct additional tests to assess the "acceptability" or ability of the uterus in preparation for the next embryo implantation.
But in general, we do not use this program lightly, especially for older women with poor egg quality: womenEvery egg is very precious.
The specific treatment plan needs to be formulated according to the actual situation of the patient.
Secondly, the activity of the endometrial blood vessels will change periodically. When the endometrium is gradually increased at the end of diastolic blood flow in the uterus, the mid-luteal phase reaches a peak, and the resistance index drops significantly, it will also be very conducive to embryo implantation. .
Endometrial cells are constantly producing fluids.
Some of these fluids are reabsorbed by cells in the endometrium, some fluids leak from the uterus through the cervix into the vagina, and some leaks are considered to be fallopian tubes into the abdomen. However, in some cases, additional fluid may accumulate in the cavity, which can be seen on ultrasound.
We do not want to transfer embryos into the fluid-filled uterine cavity, because this will reduce the chance of embryo implantation.
The accumulation of fluid in the uterine cavity of some patients may be a sign of obstruction of the end of the fallopian tube, which is called hydrosalpinx in clinical treatment.
Hydrosalpinx is also a very important factor affecting the success of IVF transplantation.
In general, expectant mothers with hydrosalpinx have a much lower chance of pregnancy during the IVF cycle.
We generally solve this factor of unsuccessful pregnancy through tubal dredge and salpingectomy.
There are many complex interactions between the endometrium and the embryo. Even if the problems described above do not exist, the embryo may still not be implantable. With the deepening of research, it is expected to discover new problems and new therapies.
The advent of the little angel is a very difficult thing.
In addition to the above conditions, you also need:
One is to break through psychological barriers and maintain a good attitude.
Face the treatment process calmly, maintain communication and communication without any psychological burden.Especially for women, high psychological pressure and nervous tension may cause uterine muscle contraction disorders and embryos cannot implant normally, resulting in failure to transplant, so you must maintain a happy mood.
The second is to develop healthy habits.
Quit smoking alcohol in the first half of the test tube, because nicotine and alcohol will not only cause male oligospermia, weak sperm, sperm deformity, but also affect female ovarian function;
Scientific diet, do not eat fried foods, eat more fruits and vegetables and whole grains;
Appropriate exercise to enhance physical fitness;
Adjust bad habits (such as staying up late) and so on.
