Patient's question:
Doctor! I am doing IVF and it was going well at first, but my HCG levels rose on day 22, and the doctor said it wasn't working—now we need to monitor the growth and protect the pregnancy. When I was 42 weeks pregnant, the gestational sac fell out on its own yesterday. I want to know what tests I need to undergo to ensure the fetus grows properly if I try IVF again. My husband is fine, and both my husband and I have normal chromosome tests. My six hormone tests are also normal. Doctor, I need to know what tests I should take to find out the cause of the poor fetal growth.Doctor's answer:
Dear Consultee,According to your description of the situation, there are many possible reasons. For example, sperm deformity rates, exposure to X-rays and toxic harmful substances, smoking, excessive drinking, and hormonal imbalances in the body (which can lead to poor embryonic growth and development). It is recommended to prepare for pregnancy well, take folic acid, and avoid alcohol (including for the male partner).
Wishing the patient a speedy recovery, a healthy body, and a wonderful life.
