What is the third generation of IVF technology?
The third-generation test-tube baby technology refers to using genetic diagnosis technology to screen out embryos that do not contain disease genes or carry certain beneficial genes, and then transplant them into women to achieve pregnancy and childbirth. Compared with previous IVF technology, the third generation technology achieves disease resistance and eugenics through gene correction or screening, and has made significant contributions to preventing various possible genetic diseases and improving fertility quality.
Where can I get third-generation IVF technology across the country?
At present, the development of third-generation IVF technology is mainly concentrated in high-end fertility institutions in big cities across the country. These institutions have strong funds, expert strength, high-quality equipment indicators and complete technical processes. For example, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University Children\’s Hospital, Guangzhou Sun Yat-sen University First Affiliated Hospital, etc. are relatively well-known fertility hospitals in China.
In addition, in vitro fertilization technology can be performed in most tertiary hospitals. Because the third-generation technology requires advanced equipment and professionals for genetic screening, some public hospitals have not yet implemented the relevant technology. However, as the technology becomes more popular and matures, it is gradually being popularized in medical institutions across the country.
What are the advantages of third-generation IVF technology?
The main advantages of the third-generation IVF technology are the prevention of genetic diseases and the improvement of newborn health. This technology conducts fine control through genetic diagnosis, screening, correction or repair, etc., and can avoid problems that may be caused by a series of genetic diseases and variable factors in the genetic background. At the same time, this technology helps improve the success rate of childbirth, reduces dependence on multiple childbearing cycles and financial burdens, shortens the pregnancy cycle, reduces pregnancy risks, and reduces pre-pregnancy interference.
However, third-generation IVF technology is not perfect and has associated problems. For example, the gene sequence is not yet completely clear, technical screening is not strong enough, and the gene correction process is difficult.
What issues should be paid attention to in the third generation IVF technology?
The third generation IVF technology is a relatively new technology and requires sufficient professional technical support and rigorous operating procedures. When choosing a fertility institution for third-generation IVF technology, attention should be paid to choosing a formal and professional fertility institution to eliminate the risks of non-standard fertility institutions and illegal operations. At the same time, it is necessary to fully understand the relevant technical specifications, technical processes and technical risks, and fully consider factors such as physical fitness and age to determine the best fertility plan and strategy.
In short, the third-generation IVF technology is a very important technology and plays an irreplaceable role in improving the health of children born and the success rate of childbearing. With the continuous development and application of technology, this technology will be more widely used in the medical field, providing greater help and protection for people\’s fertility and health.
