In a woman's natural ovulation cycle, only one dominant follicle will mature. In IVF, multiple eggs need to be obtained to improve the success rate of IVF. Therefore, stimulation has become a very important part of IVF. In order to develop healthy eggs, it is necessary to pay attention to various aspects of stimulation and adjust the nervousness and anxiety before stimulation.
Does the presence of follicles on ultrasound mean normal?
No, the presence of follicles on ultrasound only indicates that the follicles are developing at the time of the current measurement, but does not indicate whether they have normal maturation and normal excretion. This requires dynamic monitoring until the follicle is considered mature and it is not possible to determine whether ovulation is normal. The follicles may be expelled early, shrink, or luteinized.
The number of basal follicles does not determine the number of eggs that can be retrieved. The follicles monitored by B ultrasound can only see the appearance of the follicles, and the contents and badness of the follicles need to be determined after they are taken out. Not every follicle detected by ultrasound has eggs, some follicles are irregular in shape, or the patient's hormone level is not good, and even many follicles are empty.
Why ovulation induction injections?
Ovulation induction injections are mainly used to replenish gonadotropin deficiencies. Its function is to promote the maturation of follicles and the production of the corpus luteum. In cases where a woman's ovaries and pituitary gland function normally, estrogen is produced to regulate the pituitary gland, which causes it to secrete an adequate amount of LH to promote ovulation. Ovulation induction is stimulated by drugs to promote the production of available eggs as much as possible, which are combined with sperm to produce healthy embryos and improve the success rate of IVF.
How long does it take to get an ovulation induction injection?
Generally, the duration of ovulation induction injections is 10-14 days. However, the specific time should be decided according to the growth of the follicle, and the dosage should be determined according to the condition of the follicle. For most patients, the duration of the medication is generally about 10 days, but the length of time will depend on the ovulation induction. Therefore, IVF ovulation induction injections are generally given for 10-14 days.
How to raise healthy eggs that are large and round?
In general, mature eggs are most suitable between 18mm and 25mm, with a full, round or oval shape and a thin and clear inner wall. Follicles that are too large or too small will affect the normal discharge of the egg, affecting the quality of the egg, which is not conducive to the woman's pregnancy.
Here are a few steps that can be followed to improve the quality of your eggs:
1. Eat iron-rich foods, such as spinach, animal offal and other iron-supplementing foods, and provide sufficient nutrition for egg production.
2. Maintain a good mood, minimize psychological pressure, anxiety and other bad emotions, and help the development of follicles.
3. Sleep should be sufficient, and maintaining a regular schedule and good sleep quality will help protect ovarian function.
4. Insisting on moderate aerobic exercise can promote the body's immunity, metabolism and blood circulation, and help delay the decline of ovarian function.
In addition to the above methods to improve egg quality, there are also the following points to note:
1.Ovulation induction drugs should be injected at the corresponding time as much as possible.
2.If you feel unwell during the use of ovulation induction medications, you should see a doctor in time.
3.Maintain a pleasant mood during ovulation induction.
4.In the later stages of ovulation induction, ovarian torsion needs to be prevented.
Cultivating healthy and mature eggs is the prerequisite for ushering in "good pregnancy", so it is necessary to pay attention to various matters in ovulation induction, maintain a healthy lifestyle and mood, prevent the occurrence of ovarian diseases, and intervene early to prevent further decline of ovarian function.
