Consultation: I have had an ectopic pregnancy before, which occurred in the position of the fallopian tubes, fortunately found in time, and treated early, but the doctor said that ectopic pregnancy appeared once, and the probability of the second pregnancy will be relatively large, so I want to try to try tube baby, IVF is to directly put the embryo into the uterus, is it possible to avoid ectopic pregnancy?
Fertility: IVF cannot avoid ectopic pregnancy. Mainly because the embryo is not only in the egg and sperm form when the woman's fallopian tube or uterine horn part of the swim, in fact, even if the embryo or blastocyst that has been developed for a period of time in the process of implantation in the uterine cavity is swimming, so there is still a possibility of ectopic pregnancy, the transfer of three days of embryos may have two to five days of a swimming time, and the five days of blastocyst swimming time is relatively small, but only the risk is reduced, not without probability.
How to reduce the chance of ectopic pregnancy
1. Avoid smoking and alcohol abuse: According to studies, women who smoke and drink alcohol are 4 times more likely to have ectopic pregnancies than ordinary people;
2. Avoid multiple abortions: the more abortions, the greater the chance of ectopic pregnancy, so be sure to do a good job of contraception when you are not planning to have children;
3. Pay attention to personal hygiene: reduce the occurrence of gynecological inflammation, especially pelvic inflammation, according to statistics, pelvic inflammation can increase the probability of ectopic pregnancy by 2.7 times;
4. Contraceptives: It is also necessary to avoid taking contraceptives for a long time, the side effects of drugs will damage the body, increase the incidence of ectopic pregnancy, it is recommended to use condoms.
Although IVF will combine sperm and eggs in vitro into the embryo and then put into the uterine cavity, but because the embryo will swim during implantation, it is impossible to carry out artificial control, only through the above methods to reduce the probability of ectopic pregnancy, and delayed menstruation, abdominal pain and other conditions should be checked to prevent ectopic pregnancy.
