Patient's question:
Since November 2002, I have been dealing with gynecological diseases and have undergone numerous tests. It has cost me a lot of time and money. I have just undergone in vitro fertilization (which failed). I hope to meet with many women who are troubled by gynecological diseases and encourage each other to overcome difficulties together!Doctor's answer:
Hello! The success rate of IVF is relatively low. It's possible for your situation to succeed again, and there are cases where it took nine attempts to achieve success.Hello! IVF is not an infant that grows in a test tube. Instead, it involves retrieving several eggs from the ovaries, combining them with the partner's sperm in a laboratory to form an embryo, and then transferring the embryo to the uterus. This allows the embryo to implant in the mother's uterus and develop into a pregnancy.
Normal conception requires sperm and eggs to meet in the fallopian tubes, combine to form a fertilized egg, and then the fertilized egg returns to the uterine cavity to continue developing. Therefore, "IVF" can be simply understood as a term where the laboratory test tube takes the place of the fallopian tube's function, hence the name "test tube baby."
