How is my country's first IVF in the year of its establishment?
The Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai wrote in the preface to "Spring Night Wedding Banquet Peach Blossom Spring":"It will be the top of the mountain, and the mountains will be seen at a glance. For many people, the happiest thing in old age is to have children and grandchildren around their knees and enjoy the joy of family. However, there are also some families who, for various special reasons, are unable to have children. In the past, these families often adopted orphans. But today, with the advancement of science and technology, IVF and artificial insemination have become the choice of more and more families.
Zheng Mengzhu, who was born 32 years ago, is the first baby born in China through IVF technology. Her birth not only marked a great achievement in Chinese medicine, but also brought endless joy and hope to her biological family.
Zuo Changlin and Zheng Guizhen are an ordinary rural couple with complementary personalities. Zuo Changlin is gentle and calm, soft-spoken, but down-to-earth and reliable. Zheng Guizhen has a lively and generous personality, and does things directly and refreshingly. When they got married, they always wanted to have children, hoping to have a child to join their family. However, Zheng Guizhen couldn't conceive within a few years of marriage. Although there were some vague speculations, they could not confirm it, and in the end they went to the hospital together for a check-up.
Doctors told them that it was difficult to have children of their own because of their physical condition. Although this result was not unexpected, it still made them happy. Zuo Changlin, who is kind on weekdays, is quite calm, but Zheng Guizhen, who wants a child to be a mother, is extremely sad and in a very bad mood. Seeing that his wife was in a bad mood and Zuo Changlin was not feeling well, he suggested that if the diagnosis was wrong, he would try to change hospitals. If there is no misdiagnosis, they can take care of themselves and try again. Zheng Guizhen listened to her husband, and since then, they have continued to do various examinations in different hospitals while looking for well-known doctors. But the result is still the same, it is difficult for them to have children of their own.
In this way, more than ten years have passed, they still have no children, and seeing that Zheng Guizhen is about to be forty years old, both of them are very disappointed. The couple decided to try one last time, forget it. So, this time they came to the Third Clinical Medical College of Beijing Medical University, and the results of this examination were the same as before, no accidents. Thinking that she would never be able to have children again, Zheng Guizhen couldn't help crying bitterly.
At that time,"IVF.
It is being born abroad, and Zhang Lizhu, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Beijing Medical University, is also researching this topic. However, on the one hand, due to the immaturity of the technology, and on the other hand, due to the many concerns of the Chinese, the real experiment has not been carried out. Zheng Guizhen, who was deeply shocked, heard the news of IVF on the radio, and she contacted Zhang Lizhu, hoping that he could participate in the IVF experiment.
Zhang Lizhu was impressed, and he and his wife had a difficult time conducting China's first test-tube baby experiment in a hospital with poor conditions at that time.
On March 10, 1988, China's first test-tube baby Zheng Mengzhu was born. As the name suggests, she is a newborn and the crown jewel of the family. Many families who long for children but struggle to have children see hope in her. Other families are more pessimistic, believing that such children are not born naturally and therefore may have birth defects. In fact, the society at that time was generally reluctant to do such a thing as IVF.
Despite the rumors, Zuo Changlin and Zheng Guizhen's parents were very happy. Zheng Mengzhu has been developing physically and mentally since he was a child, and he was able to call his parents when he was about eight months old. The most important thing is that Zheng Mengzhu has always been in good health and rarely gets sick, which makes the couple very surprised.
With the passage of time, Zheng Mengzhu grew up rapidly under the care of his parents, and in.
In 2009, he was admitted to Xi'an Xijing University and began his college career. Zheng Mengzhu was deeply impressed by his childhood experience. He is grateful for the life given to him by modern medicine, and he also feels that he has a great responsibility in the development of assisted reproductive technology. Therefore, after completing his studies, he turned his attention to reproductive medicine and returned to his hometown as a case administrator in the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University.
A few years later, Zheng Mengzhu also met the other half of his life and got married. Ordinary and happy days passed day by day, Zheng Mengzhu did not face the difficulties that her parents experienced back then, and in 2018, when she was pregnant with a child, she was no different from ordinary people.
On April 15, 2019, Zheng Mengzhu gave birth and worked in the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University and gave birth to a son, who was safe and healthy.
For those families who want to have children but are unable to have children due to physical reasons, modern assisted reproduction methods can help them fulfill their wishes. Now that this method has been accepted by the general public, it is no longer as staggering as it was twenty or thirty years ago, which is undoubtedly a good thing for scientific progress.
