The dangers of artificial twins

Nowadays, many couples want to have twins, but the chance of conceiving twins is relatively low, so many couples try to achieve it through artificial insemination. However, this practice involves certain risks, and I hope everyone can pay attention to it. Artificial twins are not conducive to the baby's development and are prone to symptoms of miscarriage and premature birth. I hope everyone can pay attention to this. You can read the content of the article for the specific dangers.

Is artificial conception good for twins?

Artificial insemination of twins Artificial insemination refers to the method of artificially injecting male semen into the female cervix or uterine cavity to assist conception. Artificial insemination is indeed a method that can increase a woman's chances of having twins. It is technically feasible, but it does not completely guarantee that a woman will have twins after undergoing the surgery.

Artificial insemination of twins: bad for the baby

In order to ensure the success rate of artificial insemination, ovulation is usually induced, so the possibility of multiple births is very high. If you want twins, after successful fertilization, you can just keep one extra egg when sacrificing the other fertilized eggs. However, doing so carries great risks for children. Therefore, experts do not recommend that you use this method to have twins.

The chances of malposition, intrauterine fetal death and dystocia in "artificial" twins are much higher than those in single babies. In addition, "artificial" twins are more likely to be born prematurely and are more likely to undergo caesarean sections. The children born are lighter, have weaker physical constitutions, and require emergency care for a longer time. Similarly, for the mother, "artificial" twins are more likely to cause pregnancy complications such as diabetes, hypertension, and anemia. Especially during and after delivery, pregnant women are likely to suffer heavy bleeding due to excessive uterine volume and weak uterine contractions, which is very harmful to the mother's health. Experts believe that from a medical point of view, natural conception should still be encouraged.

Generally speaking, friends who undergo artificial insemination may have artificial insemination twins, which is the occurrence of multiple births. Generally speaking, this phenomenon is very common and brings happiness to every family.

The difference between artificial insemination and IVF

Artificial insemination is simply the process of artificially injecting sperm into the female reproductive tract, but the location of delivery is different, such as directly into the vagina, or into the uterine cavity, or into the fallopian tube. All three routes are possible.

Generally speaking, a man's sperm must reach a certain density and have a certain level of activity before it can conceive. If his sperm activity is not good, then we need to use in vitro processing technology to process the sperm in vitro to improve its conception function. After processing, we use artificial means to send it to the female reproductive tract. This is what is called artificial insemination.

Of course, artificial insemination also includes some female factors, such as poorly developed cervical canal and problems with cervical mucus. If there is a problem with the female endocrine system, the cervical mucus will be thicker during ovulation, making it difficult for sperm to penetrate. This is where we can help her overcome this process through intrauterine insemination, which is what we call artificial insemination technology.

The so-called in vitro fertilization technology is actually the culture of embryos in vitro. Sperm and eggs are taken out of the body and artificially formed into embryos through methods such as injection technology. This process is necessary for in vitro fertilization, and we call this technology in vitro fertilization technology. Therefore, artificial insemination and in vitro fertilization are two completely different methods of artificial conception.

Artificial insemination technology and in vitro fertilization technology are suitable for different patients and have different clinical applications. If the patient can achieve pregnancy through the simplest assisted reproductive technology, namely artificial insemination, then in vitro fertilization should not be used.
