Medical diseases

But today, with the advancement of technology in the field of infertility treatment, there is no need to worry anymore.

It is also necessary for a couple who wants to be treated with egg donation to be consulted by an infertility and IVF specialist and to consider all aspects of this work, including mental, psychological and other issues, and to start the treatment with full knowledge. The egg donor must also have sufficient knowledge about all the steps and give her written consent. After these steps, in this method, the donor is stimulated by the use of medication, and after the acceptable number of follicles are reached, the eggs are retrieved through a small surgery and taken in the laboratory environment and are fertilized by the sperm of the man who is the husband of the recipient of the egg. The uterus of the recipient (infertile) is also prepared at the same time after taking the medicine, and the embryo resulting from this fertilization is transferred to the uterus of the infertile woman.

Nutrition before pregnancy

One of the most important points before pregnancy is to have a healthy and complete diet. All food groups should be used in the diet.

Vegetables, fruits, dairy products, protein, seeds and legumes should be consumed in sufficient quantity.

An important point in pre-pregnancy nutrition is to use a sufficient amount of folic acid. Folic acid is a type of B vitamin. The lack of this substance should cause common and serious neurological defects in the neural tubes of the fetus. Spina bifida and anencephaly are two diseases that cause defects in the formation of neural tubes in babies, which are formed in the first 3-4 weeks after conception. At this time, many mothers are still not aware of their pregnancy. Therefore, it is essential that the amount of folic acid in the mother’s body is provided before becoming pregnant.

Drinking alcohol and smoking should be stopped before trying to get pregnant.
