In today's society, with the accelerating pace of life and increasing life pressures, more and more couples face various challenges when pursuing family happiness. For those couples who have confirmed the need for assisted reproductive technology, understanding the importance of blastocyst culture in IVF becomes crucial.

 

In vitro fertilization (IVF), as an assisted reproductive technology that fertilizes eggs and then implants the resulting embryos into the uterus, brings new hopes of conception to many infertile couples. Blastocyst culture, as a crucial step in IVF, extends the time of in vitro culture and selects embryos of higher quality, thereby increasing the implantation rate and pregnancy rate of IVF.

 

Embryonic development is influenced by various factors, including the quality of energy and chromosomes. As women age, the quality of their eggs may decline, which may affect the developmental potential of embryos. Therefore, for couples with fertility needs, early understanding and consideration of blastocyst culture technology will provide more choices and opportunities for the future path to conception.

 

In the United States, scientists are continuously researching the progress of IVF technology. In 1989, preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) was first successfully applied clinically, using PCR or FISH to detect gender and helping couples at risk of giving birth to offspring with X-linked genetic diseases such as hemophilia A and Duchenne muscular dystrophy to select female embryos for transplantation, thereby giving birth to normal female infants. This technology prevents the birth of healthy boys who cannot sever the transmission of the disease-causing gene. In 1992, the United States pioneered the use of PCR to detect cystic fibrosis successfully, and healthy babies were born through embryo selection. Subsequently, various PGD detection methods for single-gene genetic diseases were established, and IVF technology entered the stage of testing and prevention of single-gene genetic diseases.

 

So far, PGS screening can detect 125 genetic diseases, completely avoiding congenital mental retardation, congenital deformities, Mediterranean syndrome, cri-du-chat syndrome, chromosomal abnormalities, etc. It is predicted that within the next 10 years, couples undergoing IVF will be able to choose smarter embryos. Although this technology has sparked some controversy, we believe that as technology continues to advance, it will bring hope to more families.

 

The development of technology brings many social and ethical issues. Nevertheless, we believe that understanding and exploring the potential of these technologies are crucial.
