Infertility affects the happiness of many families, but now infertile women can choose to undergo in vitro fertilization, and egg retrieval is the most crucial step in IVF. However, some women may experience ascites after egg retrieval. Can ascites be massaged after egg retrieval?
It is common for ascites to occur after egg retrieval. The main reason for ascites is that before egg retrieval, in order to enhance female ovulation ability, some hormones that can stimulate follicle maturation are injected. These hormones can cause more follicles to develop into egg cells, greatly improving the success rate of egg retrieval. However, excessive hormone stimulation can also increase the burden on the ovaries and increase the risk of ascites.
After egg retrieval, the absorption of ascites can be accelerated through massage. However, two points should be noted during massage: first, the force should be even, and the massage intensity should be slightly lighter; The second is to pay attention to keeping warm during massage, because in order to have a better massage effect, you need to directly place your hand on your abdomen. If you don't pay attention to keeping warm at this time, women's abdomen is prone to catching a cold, and after catching a cold, there will be bloating, making their abdomen even more uncomfortable.
After egg retrieval, in addition to massage, it is also important to avoid eating fruits with high water and sugar content such as watermelon and grapes, as this can worsen ascites; Secondly, it is important to consume more diuretic foods to accelerate the absorption of ascites; Another thing is to engage in appropriate physical activity to accelerate metabolic rate.
