How many times should the third generation test tube use a microstimulation regimen to promote ovulation? Because I have a balanced translocation of chromosome 9 and haven't been pregnant for three years, I chose a third generation test tube. On the second day of my menstrual cycle, I monitored three follicles using ultrasound. The doctor gave me a microstimulation plan, and I saw many posts saying that the microstimulation plan requires less egg retrieval and usually requires several ovulation attempts before transplantation, so I was curious. How many times does this plan take to promote ovulation?

The microstimulation regimen is closer to natural pregnancy, with a small dose and no downregulation process, and less stimulation to the ovaries. Generally, only about 3-5 follicles can be removed after ovulation induction, while the microstimulation regimen of the third generation test tube requires multiple ovulation induction, depending on the quality of the follicles. If the extracted follicles are of good quality and can be cultured into blastocysts, generally 1-2 times of ovulation induction is sufficient. But if the patient's health is poor and the quality of the follicles removed after ovulation induction is poor, it may be necessary to ovulate 2-3 times, or even more. Therefore, it is recommended that patients take care of themselves before the test tube and eat more protein and estrogen rich foods to improve egg quality and increase the success rate of the test tube.

Microstimulation therapy is a type of ovulation induction therapy, also known as mild stimulation therapy. It uses small doses of ovulation promoting drugs to promote follicle growth, and the injection volume is also small. The following is an analysis of the number of times microstimulation schemes were used to promote the third generation of test tubes:

The third generation of in vitro microstimulation protocol requires most people to induce ovulation 2-3 times. If the egg activity is low or the egg retrieval and transfer fail, women can try different strategies to increase their chances of success, such as antagonist ovulation induction or natural cycle ovulation induction.

A few healthy women with good ovarian reserve function can generally remove 3-5 high-quality follicles per cycle through microstimulation. If blastocysts can be successfully cultured in third generation test tubes and screened through PGD, ovulation can be promoted only 1-2 times.

How many times should the third generation test tube use a microstimulation regimen to promote ovulation? In summary, the microstimulation regimen of the third generation test tube requires multiple ovulation induction, which varies from person to person and mainly depends on the development of follicles. As long as the quality of follicles is good enough, even if only one follicle is removed at a time, the test tube can still succeed. If the quality of follicles is poor, the test tube may not succeed again.
