How many days can I test for pregnancy?

Getting pregnant and having a baby is a very simple thing for most women. As long as there is no problem with their own body and their husband's body, they can usually get pregnant within three months without taking any contraceptive measures. However, some people have special physical conditions or are older and if they want to get pregnant, they need to do in vitro fertilization. So, how many days does it take for an IVF pregnancy test to show up?

In vitro fertilization is now a very complete method of pregnancy. It is to put the woman's egg cells and the man's sperm into an IVF to cultivate the sperm and egg combination, and then embed it into the woman's uterus. The subsequent process is the same as normal pregnancy until delivery. It takes about a week for the embryo to implant, and it takes about three days after the embryo implants to test whether the pregnancy is confirmed.

Therefore, about 10 days after the IVF, you can use the test paper to test whether you are pregnant. If the test paper detects pregnancy, you can go to the hospital to test the HCG and progesterone levels. If these two items meet the pregnancy criteria, then you are definitely pregnant. If HCG doubles successfully and progesterone levels are normal, it means the baby is very healthy and there is no need to worry.

Not everyone is suitable for IVF. If you want to do it, you need to go to the hospital for a physical examination, and the couple needs to be checked. In addition, you also need to be prepared for failure, because there is no guarantee of success, so you need to be adequately prepared.

There are no many requirements for diet after IVF, but you should pay attention to the following aspects:

1. Prevent constipation

Because during in vitro fertilization, progesterone (corpus luteum copper) drugs are used. These drugs can relax the gastrointestinal muscles and slow down intestinal motility. If the intensity of exercise is low, constipation can easily occur. In order to prevent or relieve the symptoms of constipation, pregnant mothers can eat more foods rich in dietary fiber to promote digestion. For example, lettuce, cabbage, lettuce, lotus root, Chinese yam, etc. In addition, eat more whole grains in moderation. Eat less spicy and irritating foods.

2. Prevent diarrhea

Because embryo transplantation may be done in other places, you may live in a hotel near the hospital and eat fast food before and after the transplant. At this time, it is very easy to have problems with acclimatization. At this time, you should pay special attention to your diet and avoid eating in small shops without hygiene guarantees. It is best to choose a clean and tidy environment to eat to avoid diarrhea.

3. Choose a diet that is easy to digest

After the embryo transfer, due to rest and bed rest, the intensity of exercise is reduced. At this time, it is easy to have a decreased appetite and indigestion of food. Therefore, it is more important to choose food that is easy to digest in the diet. For example, you can drink some millet porridge, have some soup and other foods that help digestion and absorption.

4. Avoid eating foods that may cause skin allergies.

Many people belong to allergic constitution, and they are prone to skin allergies to pollen, metals, drugs, etc. Therefore, such people are very prone to skin allergies after IVF transplantation. At this time, you should be especially careful in your diet not to eat foods that are likely to cause skin allergies, such as seafood. In addition, you should be aware of your allergens and avoid them to prevent skin allergies during the transplantation process.

5. High-protein foods

Before embryo transfer, patients will be given ovulation-inducing drugs to promote ovulation, which can easily cause excessive stimulation of the uterus and ovaries. These patients initially experience discomfort such as abdominal distension. At this time, they should try to eat high-protein foods, easily digestible diets, eat small meals frequently, and properly control salt intake. For example, you can eat some tofu, raw eggs, yogurt and so on.
