Every woman wants the first-hand experience of motherhood, from the not-so-much-anticipated morning sickness and nausea to the most liked and cheered tiny kicks from the baby. As much as all of this is every aspiring mother’s wish, there are some factors that may lead to a delay or even not experiencing it at all, and for that matter, we are here to discuss everything with you.
For some people, we can say they get the joys of motherhood easily, whereas some go through a whirlwind of emotions upon seeing or learning that their chances are 1 in a million. Well, that is not always the case. Still, for some LGBTQ+ couples, especially those who are seeking to be parents, be it through gestational surrogacy, egg donors or sperm donors, it is essential to know a few things to consider before embarking on this journey of IVF treatment. For aspiring mothers, it is indeed the last option to resort to after trying several methods of conceiving, like unprotected sexual intercourse and intrauterine insemination.
Let us look at some things to consider when taking this bold and beautiful step.
Things To Consider Before Starting An IVF Treatment
There are procedures performed for IVF treatment; here, we will talk about the key factors to consider when going for this treatment.
- This is the most underrated point that most people or IVF clinics do not tell you. The most important thing is a pre-pregnancy test. Be it the biological mother or gestational surrogate is preparing for this treatment, it is important to consider it. The reason is that it helps check the pregnancy candidate’s overall health and ensures that both the candidate and the child will be healthy and safe. We all know that women’s fertility can deteriorate due to age, so by doing this pre-pregnancy test, you can screen for the pregnancy success rate, chronic illnesses and genetic conditions.
- As mentioned earlier, women’s fertility window starts to decline as they get older; age is a big deal when it comes to IVF treatment.
- When visiting an IVF centre for fertility treatment, choose wisely. Choose the one with high facilities, good reviews, accredited and professional healthcare providers.
- When starting an IVF treatment, one must be ready mentally, physically and emotionally. In most cases, this demands more physical wellness because the process requires sobriety and one to leave some bad lifestyle habits, including eating unhealthy and lack of exercise.
Last but not least, this procedure also requires financial preparedness because it is not guaranteed that the first IVF treatment will go according to plan or will be successful due to some probable underlying conditions that the candidate might be faced with, such as PCOS or Endometriosis or any other condition.
