Iron deficiency anemia prior to test tube procedure
Disease description:
Want to have a child through IVF, but have anemia—could it be iron deficiency anemia before IVF?
Individuals with iron deficiency anemia can undergo in vitro fertilization (IVF), but should first receive iron supplementation and blood-nourishing treatment, along with oral medications that help replenish qi and nourish blood. Under a doctor's guidance, ovulation induction is performed; once the follicles mature, eggs are retrieved and fertilized in the laboratory. If the endometrial condition is suitable for implantation, fresh embryos can be transferred into the uterus approximately three days later. Severe iron deficiency anemia not only harms overall health but may also negatively affect female fertility. Therefore, it's essential to optimize one's physical condition before pregnancy. It is advisable to regularly consume foods that help improve qi and blood levels. Both IVF and natural conception remain possible options.
