Reduce your chances of repeated IVF failure

 

IVF can see as a ray of hope. It has been a way to parenthood for many couples across the world. IVF is mostly looked at as a last hope. IVF is mostly used in cases of aged women or women with blocked or damaged fallopian tubes. It is also preferred by couples with unexplained infertility.

Though IVF has a great success rate than other infertility techniques. When all the other fertility methods fail, people go for IVF.  The couples who have undergone an IVF cycle, most have been successful, but there would be a few who have faced a failed treatment.  A failed first cycle can take a toll on you emotionally and mentally.

When you decide to go for second round of IVF, you have mixed feelings. It’s both harder and easier than the first round. We tell you how to go into your next cycle all prepared physically, mentally and emotionally:

Case review

If you are going ahead to the second IVF, your specialist would review your previous case history and find the lackness in first IVF attempt. They can suggest you some more test and can compare it from the last one. This review can help to reduce your chances of repeated IVF failure.

Re Evolution

They may ask for complete chromosome screening of the embryo prior to implantation. This testing offers a dramatic improvement in second IVF attempt and reduction in miscarriage as well as the ability to reduce the risk of multiple gestation by transferring only one chromosomally normal embryo.

Lifestyle changes

Before going ahead take care of yourself. We know it’s devastating after IVF failure. The mother needs to be healthy in mind as well as physical aspect. Changing things can help you in various ways. Small changes like exercises, taking more fertility supplements, therapy etc. make a big difference and help you stay positive. Being optimistic and staying positive is good for you. Going with the flow will help you.

How junk food affects our fertility?

Junk foods not only have a bad effect on our health, but their consumption also reduces the chances of getting pregnant. Fast food contains chemicals that interfere with the reproduction system. Because of junk food, hormones start to produce more and also weight starts increasing. Hormonal problems for a long time can have a bad effect on women’s fertility (ability to have children). Fatty food and junk food lead to rapid weight gain. Excessive fat increases the amount of estrogen hormone, which is responsible for the formation of cysts in the ovaries, which can make you vulnerable to diseases like PCOS. Not only in women’s but men’s fertility, semen quality, including higher sperm count, concentration and motility are associated with diet.

Expert’s advise

IVF specialist in Faridabad Dr. Astha Chakrvarty says, ‘Nowadays infertility is increasing due to the trend of junk food. There are many cases of problems like PCOS coming to the fore. Parents should abide their children from junk food to avoid diseases. It is important to keep this in mind, by managing your lifestyle properly and controlling obesity, this problem can be avoided. To take special care of the health of the baby and the mother during pregnancy, there is a special need for a nutritious diet. Women/men should ignore junk food.

Stress and Infertility

 


We know sometimes it’s difficult to deal with anxiety, stress, sadness, and other mental health problems whenever they arise, and it’s not unusual for some of those problems to navigate while you’re dealing with fertility problems.

When you feel upset or do not feel well whether it’s some external or internal reason, then you start feeling stressed. There can be stress due to career, family, money, and any illness. Every person handles stress differently, so its effect on our body is also different. Stress can affect your fertility without any doubt.

How does stress affect fertility?

Stress can affect your fertility in the following ways. Stress hormones impair the body’s flight and fight response, and affect the rest of the body’s systems. It also includes the reproductive system. Stress can prevent pregnancy or affect a woman’s chance of conceiving.

Stress affects one part of your brain (the hypothalamus). This part controls your hormones. The hypothalamus is a gland in the brain that controls the hormones needed to release your eggs. This gland also controls the male’s testosterone hormone levels. Due to hormonal imbalance, the thickening of the uterine lining can also affect the implantation of the fetus.

How to cope with stress?

Change your routine so that you feel more relaxed and stress-free. If there is an obvious cause for your stress, find a solution to it so that you can be free from stress. Adequate sleep, a healthy diet, exercise, and yoga or meditation can all help reduce your stress. If these methods are not proven to be effective for your fertility, then you may need medical help. Talk to your doctor they may refer you to a fertility specialist. The fertility specialist will determine if there are any other reasons why you may not be able to ovulate. You will probably be given fertility medication to help with ovulation.

Multiple IVF failures: What is next step?

 



If a couple is unable to conceive naturally to become parents, they try all the medical techniques available to get the child. IVF is considered to be the best option for childless couples, IVF is an advanced technology, and with the help of that pregnancy is possible even in older age and with complex problems. It is an assisted reproductive technology that helps couples in an unnatural way (artificial insemination). After conception, the whole process is the same as a normal pregnancy.

The success rate of IVF can vary from patient to patient. Some couples are lucky enough to conceive for the first time of IVF, while some fail in treatment 2-3 times. Failure of IVF fills them with anger, disappointment, sadness, and frustration. Before exploring other options for getting pregnant after treatment failure, it is important to know what caused the failure of IVF treatment.

  • Female age

Women have less chance of becoming pregnant as they age. A decline in egg quantity and quality also affects the chances of pregnancy through IVF treatment.

  • Embryo Quality

The female’s eggs and the male’s sperm are mixed to create an embryo. Embryos can appear healthy in the lab, but when implanted into the uterus there is a possibility that they fail to implant due to an invisible defect.

  • Ovarian Response

Some women’s ovaries do not respond correctly to the medication for stimulation and thus fail to produce multiple eggs for collection. Especially in older women due to the low quantity of eggs (low ovarian reserve).

  • Implantation Issues

In some women because of the presence of uterine polyps, premature increase in progesterone levels, an endometrial lining, or an infection of the uterus, the embryos failed to implant in the uterus.

  • Lifestyle

Achieving a healthy lifestyle will also benefit you, as well as maintaining a nutritious diet and exercising regularly. If you smoke, it is shown to negatively impact fertility. it is wise to quit a few months before you begin IVF.

  • Chromosomal Abnormalities

Due to Chromosomal Abnormalities, the body rejects the embryo, and this results in IVF failure. Chromosomal abnormalities could be inherited from one of the parents or be newly developed during the early stages of embryo division.

What is the next step?

The fertility expert from Best IVF Hospital in Faridabad says, Adopting new techniques of reproduction, the couple can get pregnant. After unrevealing, the negative causes of your treatment and taking appropriate steps can help increase the success rate of conceiving. The complete details about your and your partner’s health condition can help in taking appropriate steps.

Endometrial Polyp : Symptoms and Treatment


The uterus is the main internal reproductive organ of a woman. In medical language, the polyp is an abnormal growth of body cells. They can look like small mushrooms or flat bumps. Uterine polyps grow in the inner lining of the uterus in women. These polyps are formed when the cells in the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grow i an uneven way. Uterine polyps can range in size from as small as a mole to as large as a golf ball. This mucus is a protruding structure outside the membrane. Often it is attached to the tissues like a thin and long stem below. When polyps are in the cervix, they are called Cervical Polyps, a Polyp of Cervix. . They are also called endometrial polyps. 95 percent of uterine polyps are benign, meaning they don’t cause cancer.

Symptoms of Endometrial Polyps:

  1. Irregular Menstrual Bleeding
  2. Heavy menstrual bleeding
  3. Infertility
  4. Postmenopausal bleeding
  5. Prolapse, which occurs when a polyp comes through the cervix and protrudes out of the uterus

Diagnosis

Your doctor will probably perform a pelvic ultrasound if you are having irregular bleeding or other symptoms. Sometimes an ultrasound alone can’t make the diagnosis of a uterine polyp, then Transvaginal ultrasound is performed with a thin device with a camera inserted into the vagina that emits sound waves to produce an image of the uterus. A polyp may be visible in it. This is called a hysteroscopy. It helps diagnose polyps. This polyp maybe shows clearly or may be in the form of thickened endometrial tissue.

Treatment

If there is a problem with having a baby and there is a polyp in the uterus, then doctors recommend removing it. Hormonal medications can reduce the symptoms of a polyp. But taking such medicines is usually a short-term solution. Symptoms usually recur when the medicine is stopped. Very small polyps are often not treated because sometimes it disappears on their own. Your doctor will plan a treatment to make sure they don’t get larger.

If you have symptoms, you might need treatment to remove the polyps. Surgery is the only option to remove it if it is not treated with medicine.  Endometrial polyps are most often removed by a procedure called hysteroscopy. Sometimes, a D and C (Dilation and Curettage) can be done to biopsy the endometrium and remove the polyp. This is less commonly used.

Uterine Polyps can lead to infertility or miscarriage. The polyp can make it difficult for the embryo to implant in the uterus. In many cases, pregnancy can happen when there are uterine polyps, but there can be problems with it. Many women have repeated miscarriages due to polyps. A successful surgery includes completely removing the polyp, an improvement in symptoms, and healing well. Removing uterine polyps can help fertility.
