Not long ago, the Beijing Medical Insurance Bureau announced that 16 reproductive technologies will be included in the scope of medical insurance Class A reimbursement. It was officially implemented on March 26. This is undoubtedly great news for many families who want to have children through IVF.
However, at present, it is only the Beijing Medical Insurance Bureau that implements reproductive technology into medical insurance, and there is no such policy in other places. However, I believe that in the future, people's demand for IVF technology will continue to increase, and reproductive technology will be included in more and more places in medical insurance.
When it comes to IVF technology, people may only know that he can help infertile families to have children, but they do not know that IVF technology is also divided into one generation, two generations, and three generations. And even if some people know, there will be such a misunderstanding, IVF technology is of course a generation is stronger than a generation. If you think that, you're wrong. Others think that IVF technology is only about giving birth to babies in cold instruments. This is also a very wrong idea. The birth of IVF is not what people think, developing and growing in a cold test tube.
First of all, the first point is that the progress of IVF technology is not achieved overnight, it is recognized in continuous experiments. It is also through the fact that more and more people do IVF and successfully have babies, so that more people believe in IVF.
We often say that IVF technology can be divided into one generation, two generations, and three generations.
A generation of IVF called IVF and embryo transfer. Also known as (IVF-ET)
In fact, we often say that IVF knows that it is a generation of IVF. In fact, most of the hospitals and test tube institutions in China can do it.
In layman's terms, the first generation of IVF technology only needed to take women's eggs and male sperm, and then send them to the laboratory, so that they can be freely fertilized in vitro. At first, the first generation of IVF appeared to be able to help women with tubal problems and help them successfully conceive, and later, with the development of medicine, gradually included people with endometriosis, immunity, stubborn ovulation disorders, cervical or infertile people caused by unknown factors into the indications for IVF.
Second-generation IVF, called intracytoplasmic sperm microinjection, is also called ICSI. Second-generation IVF is mainly aimed at men with fertility difficulties. Second-generation IVF is characterized by the artificial injection of individual sperm into the cytoplasm of egg cells, so that sperm and eggs can be better fertilized.
In general, if men have difficulty in fertility due to oligospermia, weak sperm, azoospermia, high sperm fragmentation rate, etc., they can choose second-generation IVF.
Three generations of IVF can be said to be a popular option. Three-generation IVF is called preimplantation genetic diagnosis, also known as PGD/PGS. In fact, the operation process of the third-generation IVF technology and the second-generation IVF technology is similar. Only before the embryo transfer, the embryo needs to be PGD/PGS tested to see if the embryo has chromosomal diseases, in this process, the embryos in question will be eliminated, and the embryos without chromosomal genetic diseases will be put into the womb.
Some couples, the family has a genetic disease, dare not try to get pregnant, afraid of giving birth to the child is not healthy, these cases can try the 3rd generation ivy technology, for the general population, then do not need to carry out the "3rd generation IVF"
In fact, many people will want to choose to do three generations of IVF, but experts suggest that the success rate of doing three generations of IVF will be higher, but to develop a suitable IVF program according to their own physical conditions, which is the right approach.
