Patient's question:
The doctor mentioned that on the ninth day after embryo transfer in IVF, my hCG level was 302. However, in recent days, my deep sleep has significantly worsened. Previously, I would fall asleep by 11 PM, but now I often don't fall asleep until after 1 AM. Additionally, I'm easily woken up by needing to urinate, and my deep sleep has been very poor these past two days. What should I do? I used to suffer from neurasthenia, and taking melatonin helped a lot, but now I'm afraid to take it. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
In your case, this is likely due to physical discomfort during pregnancy leading to neurasthenia and distress. It is recommended that you adjust your situation accordingly. Avoid drinking too much water and eating too many fruits before taking a nap in the evening. Take a hot bath before bed, engage in relaxation training, and listen to light music to help you fall asleep more quickly. Additionally, it is advised to undergo a thorough examination at the hospital and follow the doctor's guidance for treatment. Do not self-medicate to prevent any adverse effects on you and the fetus!
