Patient's question:
I have checked the semen four times, with three results showing 0-1/HP and one showing zero. The hormone test at the hospital showed: Follicle-stimulating hormone 20.90 mIU/ml, Testosterone 5.72 ng/ml, Luteinizing hormone 17.61 mIU/ml, Prolactin 19.32, and the quantitative test of seminal plasma neutral alpha-glucosidase was 19.76. The testicular ultrasound revealed: Normal position of both testicles, smooth surface, and uniform internal echoes. The right testicle measured approximately 2.5×1.8×1.1 cm, while the left testicle measured about 2.4×1.8×1.2 cm. The heads of both epididymides were about 0.5 cm thick, with uniform internal echoes.Doctor's answer:
Hello, in vitro fertilization (IVF) is a form of assisted reproduction. In IVF, eggs and sperm are retrieved from the human body and fertilized outside the body. After the embryo develops, it is transplanted back into the uterus of the mother to achieve the goal of pregnancy. Generally, 2-3 embryos are implanted, which increases the likelihood of multiple pregnancies. However, through chromosome screening in IVF, some genetic diseases can be avoided. To some extent, the gender can also be selected to avoid genetic diseases. However, it is illegal to simply choose to have a boy, a girl, or twins for the sake of it, as this is stipulated by national policy. If both partners are healthy, it is still recommended to conceive naturally and let nature take its course. The health of the baby is more important than anything else.
