In fact, until now, there are still many people who have doubts about the technology of IVF. In addition to the fear that it will hurt your body, you will also worry that the baby born through the test tube will have defects. There is nothing wrong with such concerns, after all, IVF is a medical act, and it is more or less risky. But, is the baby born of IVF mentally and physically deficient? Let's follow Hengjian overseas to learn about it together.
Anyone who has learned about IVF will know that the whole process of IVF includes examination, ovulation promotion, egg retrieval, embryo culture, and transfer.
The examination is to be able to better develop a suitable plan for the test tube patient. Ovulation induction is to obtain more eggs, egg retrieval is to retrieve eggs from the ovary of the IVF patient, and then fertilize, after fertilization, embryo culture, different IVF protocols, the cultured embryos will be different. For example, if you do three generations of IVF, you need to culture the embryos into blastocysts, and other ivy tubes can directly transfer fresh embryos. After the embryos have been cultured, the embryos can be transferred into the patient's uterine cavity.
If it is a third-generation IVF, the baby's intelligence and health are also relatively guaranteed. Because the third generation of IVF is studied for infertile patients with genetic diseases and chromosomal abnormalities. Through the screening of PGD/PGS technology of three generations of test tubes, abnormal embryos are eliminated and healthy embryos are transferred, so that healthy babies can be born and eugenics can be achieved.
So don't worry too much about the health and intelligence of your IVF baby.
In China, 15,405 cases of IVF were counted, and the results found that the incidence of birth defects was 1.23%, which was basically no different from 1.35% of natural pregnancies, and it could even be said that the ivory infant defect rate was lower. In the return visit of 4,814 IVF babies, preliminary data showed that the height, weight, intelligence and psychological behavior of these babies were within the normal range, and the incidence of common diseases such as asthma and other allergic diseases was not significantly different from that of natural gestational offspring. In terms of intellectual and psychobehavioral development, most studies have concluded that IVF treatment is not associated with autism spectrum disorders, intellectual development, school performance, and mood disorders. No significant differences were found in a comparative analysis between different IVF techniques, including ICSI comparing IVF, ICSI comparing natural pregnancy, PGD comparing natural pregnancy, and egg activation compared to natural pregnancy. Other diseases, including tumors, allergic diseases, etc., do not differ significantly from natural pregnancy in IVF.
