I had a dull pain in my stomach on the third day after the transplant.

The most concerned processes in IVF treatment mainly include these: ovulation induction, IVF egg retrieval, transplantation and post-IVF transplantation recovery. In fact, from ovulation induction to transplantation, the key operations are performed by doctors, and patients only need to cooperate. The recovery after test tube transplantation is mostly done by patients alone. During this period, female friends often feel too much pressure and are nervous. If you experience abdominal pain on the third day after transplantation, you must remain calm and actively seek ways to deal with it.

Pay attention to rest, but don’t stay in bed. Bed rest may be a common "doctor's advice" in obstetrics and gynecology. Such as miscarriage, premature baby, bleeding to maintain the pregnancy, and giving birth before delivery.

But is it really necessary to rest in bed after test tube transplantation?

There is still some difference. As for the question of whether you need to stay in bed for three months after in vitro fertilization, the doctor's answer is "not necessarily". Many reproductive medicine experts from all over the world have conducted research on this matter and believe that the success of in vitro fertilization is related to the transplantation technology, the receptivity of the uterine wall, and the quality of the test tube embryo, but has nothing to do with whether the patient is bedridden after the test tube transplant. Their mutual opinion is that long-term bed rest after test tube transplantation will affect the patient's normal life pattern and normal daily work, which will increase the patient's psychological burden and cause the patient to be anxious, thus affecting the regulation of the body's endocrine system, which is actually harmful rather than beneficial to the final pregnancy.

There are also studies that show that long-term bed rest affects the normal blood circulation of the pelvis and lower limbs. In addition to being unfavorable for the implantation of fertilized eggs, it can also cause symptoms such as lumbar discomfort, decreased appetite, indigestion, constipation and bloating in patients. In severe cases, it may also cause lower limb vein thrombosis. Therefore, among the common problems after IVF transplantation in almost all IVF hospitals, there is no doctor's advice on long-term bed rest. The standards for recovery after test-tube transplantation vary from person to person and are treated individually. The biggest principle is to avoid excessive fatigue and maintain mental happiness. The best method is to suit your own way.

After the test tube transplant, I hope everyone can have a positive attitude and not be too cautious, but some obvious abnormal phenomena still need to be paid attention to.

Abdominal pain after IVF

Abdominal pain after test-tube transplantation is a common medical history of patients, and most patients are nervous, anxious and worried because of it. In fact, there are two types of abdominal pain after test tube transplantation. Hidden abdominal pain may be caused by excessive psychological pressure and excessive concern. Compared with normal pregnancy, patients undergoing IVF have gone through too much hardship, so nervousness and anxiety are a very normal reaction. For occasional abdominal discomfort and transient tingling sensations, there is no need to panic and you can just observe for the time being. The human organs in the "belly" include not only the uterus, ovaries, and bilateral fallopian tubes, but also its neighbors next door. For example, there is the bladder in front, the duodenum in the back, and the colon and sigmoid colon around the upper and lower parts. Inadvertent intestinal spasms can also cause temporary pain in the lower abdomen. But if the pain persists and gradually worsens, you should see a doctor for treatment.

If you have sudden severe abdominal pain, you should go to the hospital immediately.

Sudden abdominal pain after egg retrieval and test tube transplantation for in vitro fertilization should alert you to the possibility of capillary rupture, and may also be related to incarceration and twisting of the uterus and ovaries. It is more common in patients who have more eggs retrieved during in vitro fertilization and have ascites. In addition, the appendix is ​​also adjacent to the uterus, and abdominal pain caused by acute and chronic appendicitis should be taken seriously.

Abdominal distension, chest tightness and shortness of breath after test tube transplantation

Abdominal distension after test tube transplantation is often related to the use of progesterone drugs and excessive rest. Generally, you need to rest appropriately for 2 to 3 days after the test tube transplant, and then you can go about your daily life as normal, as long as you don't do any strenuous work and avoid activities that increase abdominal pressure. Too much rest will slow down your basal metabolism and may cause constipation and bloating. However, if the patient's estrogen level is too high during the ovulation induction period and after IVF egg retrieval, or if too many eggs are retrieved during IVF, more attention should be paid and the patient should be alert to the occurrence of uterine and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS).

Its specific manifestations include abdominal distension, gastrointestinal discomfort, oliguria and other symptoms. If they gradually worsen, you should go to the hospital for medical treatment immediately. Patients who have undergone IVF with a large number of eggs and have chest tightness and shortness of breath, which worsens when lying down, may be related to pleural effusion caused by OHSS. In this case, they should go to the hospital immediately for treatment.

Bleeding after IVF

Bleeding after test tube transplantation is a common symptom in in vitro fertilization treatment. There should also be some differences. Common conditions include: cervical inflammation and cervical cysts. Generally, bleeding is not likely to be excessive, but there may be a small amount of pink discharge. If the bleeding is heavy or lasts for a long time, you should go to the hospital to find out the location of the bleeding. If it is uterine bleeding, don't be too anxious at first, because bleeding does not mean that you must fail. When you have bleeding, you should communicate with your attending physician and be hospitalized for observation if necessary.

If the bleeding is heavy, reaches the menstrual volume, or exceeds the menstrual volume, you should seek medical attention immediately. It is important to note that even if the test tube transplant fails, bleeding generally will not exceed the menstrual volume unless there are other diseases. Some patients worry that bleeding after IVF is an ectopic pregnancy. Let me explain here: there is no need to consider this issue during the period from test tube transplantation to the day of HCG testing, because even if an ectopic pregnancy occurs later, it will not be possible to check or diagnose it at this time, there are no preventive measures, let alone treatment. Bleeding near the date of blood test for HCG may be related to premature menstruation without successful menstruation. However, it is still recommended to check the HCG level in the blood on time to prevent misdiagnosis of ectopic pregnancy and other abnormal phenomena.

Bleeding about a week after test tube transplantation may be the shedding and bleeding of the endometrium produced when the fertilized egg implants. There is no need to worry, just stick to the original medication plan.
