"Queen" Xie Yingxuan is pregnant and has a bruised belly and nosebleeds? Doctors reveal the truth: It's just a dramatic effect! There are also these misconceptions about "test tube treatment"
Netflix’s drama “Queen” has aroused a lot of heated discussions after it was aired. In addition to Lin Tingyi’s performance as the scheming green tea girl “Emma Shi”, which made people angry, the strong woman Xue “Xue Yazhi” played by Xie Yingxuan seems to have a successful career. She has many marital problems with Director Li “Li Ziqi” played by Xue Shiling. In addition to sacrificing her true feelings, she also underwent artificial reproduction treatment for Li Ziqi’s desire to have a child.
There were many scenes in the play, such as getting a bruise on the belly due to an injection, and eventually a nosebleed, which made many netizens lament that it is so difficult to be a woman! However, the doctor explained that many of the paragraphs are actually arranged for dramatic effect, and not every case of artificial reproduction will encounter it. Today, we will explain the common myths about in vitro fertilization!
IVF treatment requires constant injections, is it very complicated and troublesome?
Lu Baijia, deputy director of the Wang Jiawei Reproductive Medicine Center, said that in the play, Xie Yingxuan rushed to get an ovulation injection during a meeting, and the bruises on her belly were frightening to watch. However, clinically speaking, as long as the time gap before and after the ovulation injection does not exceed two hours, it will not have a great impact on the results of the treatment, so there is no need to be too nervous.
For women who are really busy, there are now long-acting ovulation injections available, which greatly reduce the pain of injections. There is only an “egg-breaking injection” before egg retrieval, which must be administered on time. Special notice will be given when arranging the operation. In real life, there are actually many husbands who love their wives. In addition to caringly accompanying their wives for follow-up visits every time, they also conscientiously learn injections with their wives and remind them of the injection times, which is quite helpful in alleviating their wives’ anxiety. Vice President Lu Baijia said that what he disliked the most was the male protagonist in the play. When his wife rushed to get an injection, he not only refused to help, but also smoked and drank regularly, which greatly affected the quality of sperm and had a very negative impact on the success rate of IVF. Everyone should take this as a warning!
Don’t be too anxious about bruises at the injection site. Only seek medical treatment if you experience “such symptoms”!
As for the bruising on the belly after the injection of the ovulation injection in the drama, it is a normal reaction. However, if the injection method is correct, there will only be slight bruising, and usually the area will not be too large. During the ovulation injection period, common side effects include headache, nausea, stomach discomfort, constipation, and breast tenderness. Vice President Lu Baijia reminded that the diet should be as light as possible and avoid foods that are too salty and oily to relieve discomfort. During the course of treatment and after egg retrieval, you can observe changes in weight and waist circumference. If there is a rapid increase or side effects such as severe abdominal distension and breathlessness, it may be ovarian overstimulation, so you should be particularly cautious. , return for check-up and follow-up as soon as possible.
A female doctor at a reproductive center revealed: Nose bleeding will occur when taking ovulation injections. This is possible only by taking “this drug”!
As for many viewers on the Internet, they are speculating whether the cause of Xie Yingxuan’s nosebleed in the drama is related to in vitro fertilization? Vice President Lu Baijia said that nosebleeds will not occur if ovulation injections are just administered regularly. In a small number of cases, due to immune problems, anticoagulant drugs (such as aspirin, Aishuantong, Kelisen…) will be required after embryo implantation, thus increasing the chance of bleeding.
Xiaohua pharmacist Hua Yixiu added that the side effects often mentioned in anticoagulant bags or instructions for use are “bleeding” or “abnormal bleeding.” Signs and symptoms include: abnormal bruising, bleeding gums, nosebleeds, Vomitus containing blood or brown material that looks like coffee grounds, bloody or black stools, and hematuria (red or dark brown urine). After the above signs and symptoms appear, you should stop taking the medication and inform your doctor as soon as possible. The doctor will make a judgment and adjust the dosage and take appropriate treatment.
