Ultrasound showed that the embryo had stopped developing

During pregnancy, the baby grows slowly in the mother's belly like a small bean sprout. I firmly believe that all mothers in the world are the same and look forward to the healthy birth of the child. However, many accidents may occur during this process. For example, some conditions may cause the test tube embryo to stop growing. Expectant mothers should have knowledge of these aspects and be fully prepared. Then they need to understand the reasons why the embryo stops growing.

What are the reasons for the termination of growth and development of test tube embryos?

1. Genetic factors: If there are chromosomal abnormalities or genetic defects, the most common ones are abnormalities in the chromosomes of sperm or egg cells, insufficient hormone secretion cannot support the embryonic development and lead to death, and uterine malformations make the test tube embryo unable to grow.

2. Viral infection during pregnancy, contact with radioactive elements, harmful chemical Chinese medicines, taking medicines that are strictly prohibited during pregnancy, high temperature, microwave heating, noise, excessive stress, etc.

3. Mutual factors of the couple: such as women with poor physical constitution or illness, incomplete cervical occlusion, corpus luteum insufficiency, endometriosis, immune factors, diabetes, hyperthyroidism, etc. There are many bacteria and abnormal sperm in male semen.

How to prevent embryonic arrest

1. After an embryo stops developing for unclear reasons and the test tube embryo is processed, corresponding examinations should be carried out on the third day of the next menarche, and corresponding solutions should be taken in time if problems are found.

2. Couples should quit smoking and drinking before and during pregnancy to avoid the effects of alcohol and tobacco on the fetus.

3. Infection with viral infection. For rubella, pregnant women should be vaccinated against rubella early. In the first three months of pregnancy, avoid staying in public places for too long, and do moderate exercise to enhance your immunity and your ability to satisfy yourself. Maintain nutritional balance.

4. Psychological relaxation: Women who are preparing for pregnancy should not worry too much whether they or their friends have experienced fetal growth retardation. Anxiety and work pressure can cause endocrine disorders, which is also bad for the healthy growth and development of test tube embryos and fetuses.

5. Appropriate examination: Generally, test tube embryos will have fetal heartbeats around 8 weeks, and fetal growth retardation may occur at 8-12 weeks. Therefore, it is recommended that pregnant women do B-ultrasound around 8 weeks to check the growth and development of the fetus and embryo as early as possible. If there is a fetal heartbeat, you can probably rest assured.

6. Get pregnant again after half a year: For women who have experienced fetal growth retardation, from the perspective of eugenics, it is necessary to wait at least half a year before getting pregnant again, because it takes at least two or three months for the human ovary to repair, and at least half a year for the uterine wall to repair.

Knowing the reasons why test tube embryos stop developing, I believe that expectant mothers can better prevent the embryos from stopping developing, safely go through pregnancy, and give birth to healthy babies. If you feel unwell during pregnancy, you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment immediately, and pay great attention to every data signal transmitted by the human body. I wish all expectant mothers can give birth to healthy babies as they wish.
