Embryo transfer process in brief…
nIn the IVF solution, the female whose egg cells are to be fertilized is extracted from her ovaries by the infertility experts and fertilized by the sperm of the male donor or her male partner in the lab. Once the male and female gametes are successfully fertilized, the egg cell starts multiplying, forming embryos.nnThe embryos are then transferred to the woman’s uterus where it attaches itself with the wall of the womb and confirms pregnancy. But one has to wait for a period of almost two weeks for the confirmation of pregnancy and this “waiting time” is enough to make them anxious and worried.nnBut you must not get carried away with the emotions and be practical during this time. There are some more guidelines that you can follow to keep your calm and increase your chances of a successful pregnancy during the waiting phase after a successful embryo transfer. Read onn- Be calm- one of the major aspects of the IVF Success Rate depends on the calmness of your mind. When you are mentally stable and do not suffer anxiety or depression, chances are more, that your IVF procedure might be a successful one. So, take it easy and chill as much as you can. Remember that it is not the end of hope and you still have chances to repeat the procedure.
- Take enough rest but do not be inactive- rest is needed for every woman who has undergone the embryo transfer process but not like you are lying on your bed all day. It is more like being active enough to not let your body be dumb but take enough rest so that your body does not feel fatigued or weak.
- Have balanced and healthy meals- this is very important even after you get pregnant. When you follow a balanced and healthy diet plan the chances of pregnancy increases along with the healthiness of the mother and the fetus. Include everything in your diet from fats and proteins to carbohydrates and vitamins. Avoid eating too much junk foods and keep away from smoking and drinking.
- Do not do strenuous physical activities- as mentioned earlier that your body needs ample amount of rest during this period, likewise you should not indulge in anything that makes you feel weak and fatigued; in short, do not do physically strenuous works or exercises for that matter. Do simple freehand exercises to keep the healthiness alive.
- Train your mind to accept the fact in case it’s a failure- prepare yourself in this phase in a way that even if the result tus out to be negative you won’t be shattered or heartbroken. Be ready to accept the fact that it might turn out to be negative but you must not lose hope and try again! When you remain positive, the chance of a positive result increases.
- Spend more times with the ones you love and your support system- spending time with family and friends who are close to you, is a better way to set your mind free! The more you remain out of the company the more you will overthink which is not good for the pregnancy. Enjoy, have fun and be positive during the phase.
