Dr. Wiwat also revealed that statistics on male sperm quality are decreasing nowadays.
“30-50 years ago, statistics on the quality of male sperm gradually decreased. It is believed to be caused by environmental pollution and contaminants we ingest such as pesticides and antibiotics. which causes a decrease in sperm quality”
Currently, ICSI has been proven to be used in almost all cases of infertility treatment. Because the sperm can be fertilized with the egg at the right time. To achieve a higher fertilization rate and better embryo quality. Therefore, ICSI treatment is not limited to married couples whose male partner has a low sperm count. General patients or elderly patients ICSI was also used.
Trends in IVF technology increase success rate
Currently, IVF technology has developed over the past 50 years and Dr Wiwat said it has gone from having to insert 55-60 sperm at a time to inserting just one sperm. But the success rate may increase with the development of technology. From normal IVF to ICSI From rearing normal larvae to rearing larvae in tanks first with chromosomal control which increases the chances of success
“The current trend in IVF is 1. Performing ICSI 2. Rearing embryos up to the blastocyst stage 3. First the chromosomes of the embryo are checked. If checked before, frostbite will occur. and put later 1-2 months later Due to the insertion of fresh embryos It turned out that the problem was that female hormones were an obstacle to the implantation of fresh embryos. When we wait for hormones to subside, we increase our chances of success.”
Currently, the success rate of IVF technology The percentage is 55-60% for the insertion of a single embryo with normal chromosomes. which developed from 10% success by placing 4-5 items
When is it best to plan to have children?
Planning to have children nowadays is important. Because it turned out that people in this era will be older before they are ready to have children. Dr. Wiwat suggested that If a woman is 35 years old or younger, she has been married for 1 year and has not used contraceptives. But if you don’t have children yet, you need to consult a doctor. But if you are over 35 years old and within 6 months there are no signs of pregnancy, you should consult a doctor. Or should you come visit him? At least you should come and check if there are any problems that could be an obstacle to pregnancy.
“Women are born with a constant and decreasing number of eggs. As we age, biologically, the optimal age to have children is between 18 and 28, but currently it is already past the appropriate age to have children. What I mean is Anyone who wants to have children should come for consultation. Assess the situation of each patient couple’s ability to have children. To receive adequate advice such as living in nature Artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization, etc.
Additionally, egg deposition is currently available to women between the ages of 28 and 34 who do not have a partner or family. It is a group that should lay eggs. or married people But I still don’t think I’ll have a child until I’m ready. Because when you’re ready, it might be harder. You should leave the embryo first. To obtain good quality eggs The embryos are of high quality.
