The process of creating babies in test tubes

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is the lifeline for couples with reproductive health problems. However, not everyone knows how this method is implemented.

Dr. Nguyen Manh Ha, Head of the Department of Mo - Phoi, Hanoi Medical University;Deputy Director of the Center for Reproductive and Grafting Technology, said in vitro fertilization (IVF) is a method of assisted reproduction for infertile couples.The success rate of the cases performed here is 51.6%.A cycle of in vitro fertilization will take place in about 2-3 weeks.

In order to create ideal conditions (8-15 follicles) to make IVF, the wife must click the ovary according to the appropriate regimen.At the right time, you will be given an injection to cause ovulation.From 35-37 hours after vaccination, the wife is conducted to suck eggs.During this process, patients are lightly anesthetized and local anesthesia.At the same time, the husband took the sperm and put it into the lab to prepare the transplant.

The technician separates the eggs from other cells after removing the eggs from the mother's ovaries.Because there are a lot of follicles around the egg, the technician has to separate several times, each time with a smaller needle.

The technician uses the mouth to suck the eggs into the needle, which causes the follicles to shed gradually until only the eggs remain clean.

All operations are performed in a sterile room with modern equipment, ensuring no errors.

PGS Nguyen Quang Son said before fertilization in vitro, eggs must be cleaned, the test is done through a microscope.

To increase the ability to make embryos, Dr. Son applies ICSI techniques - injecting sperm into oocytes.This method is very suitable for those who have too weak sperm, too deformed, or have to get from the epididymis, the number of good sperms is very small.Each time the technique is performed, the doctor only needs one sperm for one egg.

The needle is prepared to directly pump sperm into the egg.There are two types of needles, larger ones to hold, smaller ones to suck and put sperm into eggs.

Manipulate the follicle to pump sperm into the inside.After fertilized eggs are called embryos and are transferred into the womb of the womb.After embryo transfer, the wife only needs to rest in bed for 2-4 hours, can walk normally.At home, the wife continues to drink and put the medicine to support the embryo development.Two weeks later the wife will receive a blood test to determine the pregnancy.

Residue, quality will be stored in liquid nitrogen bottles (temperature -196 degrees C).In addition, eggs, sperm and sperm can be stored in the same way for as long as they need to be removed and thawed to perform the IVF technique.The clinical pregnancy rate of IVF reached 51.6% at a cost of about 60-70 million VND / shift.
