Does egg retrieval cause serious damage to the ovaries?

Under normal circumstances, a woman's ovaries will secrete follicles. After a period of time in the ovaries, the follicles will become mature and the mature follicles will be discharged. This is a necessary condition for a woman to become pregnant. However, in real life, when couples are preparing to have children, they often have difficulty getting pregnant. At this time, they need to do in vitro fertilization, which requires extracting eggs from the woman's ovaries. So what harm will egg extraction do to the ovaries?

Does egg retrieval cause serious damage to the ovaries?

Before egg retrieval, take ovulation-inducing drugs to make the ovaries release more eggs. Then the doctor uses a special egg retrieval needle under the guidance of B-ultrasound to puncture the mature follicles through the vagina and suck out the eggs. Egg retrieval is usually performed under intravenous anesthesia, so the woman does not feel any pain from the puncture. There is no need to worry that egg retrieval will damage ovarian function, nor will it accelerate aging. If the ovaries become enlarged after egg retrieval, it may be caused by surgical stimulation, infection, etc., and can be treated with anti-inflammatory drugs. You can take ofloxacin for anti-inflammatory treatment, and Guizhi Fuling Pills for blood circulation treatment, which is beneficial for the ovaries to return to normal. Avoid eating spicy food.

During the ovulation induction process, some women may experience some stimulation to their ovaries due to differences in physical constitution. Generally, there are no symptoms. If pregnancy is not successful, the women will generally recover after one menstrual cycle. In very rare severe cases, ovarian hyperstimulation may occur. Normal women only release one egg during each menstrual cycle. When undergoing in vitro fertilization, in order to increase the success rate of the operation, ovulation induction treatment is usually performed to release multiple eggs and perform embryo culture. However, the ovulation-stimulating hormones used in in vitro fertilization can easily cause maternal hormone disorders, which may lead to premature menopause, premature ovarian failure, etc. In layman's terms, it causes women to age prematurely and greatly increases the possibility of developing ovarian, breast, uterine and other cancers.

You must use ovulation drugs before egg retrieval. One of the side effects of ovulation induction is that it can easily cause ovarian fatigue.

Guidance:

Since the ovaries are now in the decline stage, it is recommended not to use ovulation-stimulating drugs for egg retrieval. Instead, drugs can be used to put the ovaries into a dormant period so that the ovaries can enter a repair period. It is recommended to use egg-stimulating hormone to increase the amount of eggs released, promote the growth of follicles, and screen eggs. Regularly consume foods rich in phytoestrogens. Eating foods high in VE and drinking soy milk can increase estrogen, which is very effective in maintaining the uterus and ovaries. Foods rich in vitamin C, such as fruits and vegetables, etc.
