Patients with chromosomal abnormalities in homologous chromosomes cannot undergo third-generation IVF, as such abnormalities may lead to miscarriage even with in vitro fertilization. Patients with chromosomal abnormalities should maintain a balanced and light diet, ensuring proper nutritional intake. In daily life, they should adjust their mindset, increase physical activity, and balance work with rest. It is recommended to consume more foods rich in folic acid to help prevent fetal malformations.
