Difference between fluid accumulation and ascites after egg retrieval

With the continuous development of modern science, there are already many ways to treat infertility, among which in vitro fertilization is particularly common. However, some women developed ascites after egg retrieval during in vitro fertilization. Why does ascites occur after egg retrieval? Generally, it is because too many eggs are retrieved during in vitro fertilization, which over-stimulates the woman's uterus and ovaries, resulting in ascites. Generally, it can be eliminated by taking further measures.

The difference between hematoma and ascites after egg retrieval in IVF

Many people have ascites after egg retrieval. This is a normal condition. As long as the ascites is not excessive and there are no serious symptoms such as nausea, retching, and abdominal distension, you can rest assured that it does not require treatment. It is normal for the cervix to separate slightly after egg retrieval. It is recommended that you try to avoid activities, pay attention to rest, and don't let your abdomen get cold. Eat some light-tasting and easy-to-digest foods, and generally after three days, the ascites will be significantly relieved.

Generally, in the process of in vitro fertilization, the woman's in vitro fertilization egg retrieval is a very important process. The perfected eggs are completely removed from the woman's body, and then these removed eggs are combined with men's sperm in the laboratory to successfully produce test tube embryos, which are then transplanted into the woman's uterus. If ascites occurs after IVF egg retrieval, it is usually due to the prevalence of multiple eggs or excessive estrogen, which leads to excessive stimulation of the uterus and ovaries. Generally, ovulation-stimulating drugs are used in the ovulation-stimulating stage to stimulate the production of more eggs, thereby providing more resources for in vitro fertilization. However, on the other hand, it also increases the patient's risk of developing ascites.

Generally, there are many clinical symptoms of ascites during IVF egg retrieval, mainly abdominal distension, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and inability to eat. Some more serious patients may also experience ascites, pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, oliguria or even anuria, and even shock and death. The main reason for women to develop ascites after egg retrieval for in vitro fertilization is uterine ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
