What are the steps to do a test tube baby?

Apr 04, 2022

IVF requires women to undergo ovulation induction treatment, and after egg retrieval, in vitro fertilization, embryo transfer, corpus luteum support, and finally confirmation of pregnancy.

1. Ovulation induction treatment: The woman begins to apply ovulation induction drugs on the second day of the menstrual cycle, or when the results of reproductive hormones and uterine and ovarian ultrasound examinations meet the requirements.

2. Egg retrieval: The doctor uses a special egg retrieval needle to puncture the mature follicles through the vagina under the guidance of B-ultrasound, and suck out the eggs. Egg retrieval is usually performed under intravenous anesthesia, so the woman does not feel the pain of the puncture procedure.

3. In vitro fertilization: When the female takes the eggs, the male takes the sperm. After the semen goes through a special washing process, the sperm and eggs are placed in a special medium in order to combine naturally. This is called conventional fertilization.

4. Embryo transfer: A few days after fertilization, a very thin embryo transfer tube is used to transfer the best embryos into the mother's uterus through the cervix. The number of transferred embryos is determined according to age, embryo quality and the outcome of previous IVF, usually Transfer 2-3 embryos.

5. Luteal support: Due to the application of GnRH agonists/antagonists and ovulation-inducing drugs, as well as the loss of granulosa cells caused by oocyte retrieval, women usually have luteal insufficiency during the oocyte retrieval cycle, requiring the application of progesterone and/or chorion Gonadotropins for luteal supplementation/support.

6. Determination of pregnancy: serum HCG was determined 14 days after embryo transfer to determine whether pregnancy was present. Serum HCG was measured again 21 days after embryo transfer to understand the status of embryo development. Transvaginal ultrasonography was performed 30 days after embryo transfer to determine whether there was an intrauterine pregnancy and the presence or absence of fetal heartbeat.
