During IVF, HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) is an important indicator for monitoring embryonic development and pregnancy. However, some patients may experience fluctuations or even a sudden drop in HC** level after IVF transplantation. So how should you deal with this situation?What is the role of HCG?

HCG is a hormone produced by the placenta, and its main role is to promote the secretion of estrogen and progesterone in the pregnant woman's body to maintain pregnancy. In the IVF process, the change of HC** level can reflect the development status of the embryo and the success rate of pregnancy.
1. Embryonic development: HCG can promote the growth and development of embryos, including the growth of trophoblast cells and the implantation of embryos.
2. Pregnancy maintenance: HCG can maintain the function of the corpus luteum of pregnancy and provide necessary nutrition and growth environment for the embryo.
3. Immunoregulation: HCG can inhibit the activity of immune cells in pregnant women and reduce the rejection of embryos.
What to do if there is a sudden drop in HCG after transplantation
1. Stay calm: Don't worry too much about a sudden drop in HCG. Because HC** may fluctuate in the first trimester, as long as the embryo develops normally, the final pregnancy success rate will not be affected.
2. Close monitoring: Under the advice of doctors, regular HC level testing should be carried out to pay close attention to the change trend of HCG.
3. Adjust lifestyle: maintain a good work and rest, avoid strenuous exercise, and maintain emotional stability, which is conducive to the development of embryos and the maintenance of pregnancy.
4. Follow the doctor's advice: Under the advice of the doctor, hormones such as progesterone can be appropriately supplemented to maintain the function of the corpus luteum of pregnancy.
5. Seek medical attention in time: If the HCG continues to decline, or other pregnancy complications occur, such as abdominal pain, bleeding, etc., you should seek medical attention in time and accept the doctor's diagnosis and treatment.
HCG plays a key role in the pregnancy process, including promoting embryonic development, maintaining the function of the corpus luteum in pregnancy, and immunomodulation. Therefore, it is very important to pay attention to the changes in your HCG value at any time after the transplant, and if there is a sudden drop, you should go to the hospital in time** and follow the doctor's advice.
