    Why Doctors Recommend Early IVF?

    2025-04-24

    I. Global Fertility Crisis: 30 years old becomes the watershed of fertility, and young couples cannot escape the predicament either According to the latest data, the incidence of global infertility has risen from 12% in 2007 to 18%, which is equivalent to one out of every six couples facing fertility problems. Even more alarming is the significant increase in the proportion of 25-30 year olds – the proportion of patients under the age of 30 in the outpatient clinics of the fertility centers has exceeded 40%. Sperm quality has fallen off a cliff: male sperm concentration has dropped from 100 million/ml in 1970 to 40 million/ml, and the rate of malformations and DNA fragmentation has skyrocketed.10 For example, Mark, a 28-year-old American programmer, had a sperm fragmentation rate as high as 42% (normal < 15%) due to prolonged late-night work and sedentary life, which led directly to his wife’s two embryo abortions.2 1.Environmental toxin threat: industrial pollutants, bisphenol A (BPA) in plastics can interfere with hormone secretion and reduce sperm vitality by more than 30%. Endometrial damage: repeated abortions have resulted in paper-thin endometrium (<6mm) and a natural pregnancy rate of less than 5%. 29-year-old Emily had to opt for IVF due to recurrent pelvic inflammatory disease during puberty and severe adhesions in both fallopian tubes.Premature ovarian failure is becoming younger: the percentage of 30-year-old women with AMH values (an indicator of ovarian reserve) <1.1 ng/ml has risen to 18% from 5% 10 years ago.Harsh reality: Fertility decline knows no age, and delaying treatment will cause the IVF success rate to drop by 7%-10% per year. II.Countdown to Fertility: The Cruel Correlation Between the “Shelf Life” of Female Eggs and Age Female fertility counts down from birth: The number of follicles: 7 million in the fetal stage → 2 million…

    I. Surrogate Mother Screening: Strict Standards to Ensure Health and Safety The standardization of Georgia’s surrogacy industry begins with the strict screening of surrogate mothers. According to the law and industry standards, surrogate mothers are required to fulfill the following core conditions: Fertility experience: must be married and have given birth to at least one healthy child to minimize the risk of pregnancy and to ensure that she is physiologically fit to be a surrogate.Age Limit: Usually between 25-40 years old to ensure that the mother is in her prime reproductive years and to reduce the likelihood of complications. Health Screening: Includes testing for infectious diseases (e.g. HIV, Hepatitis B), gynecological exams, genetic history screening, and psychological evaluation to ensure that she is physically and mentally stable.Background check: some agencies require surrogate mothers to provide proof of a clean criminal record and assess their family stability to avoid subsequent disputes.Case reference: A well-known Georgian surrogacy agency has disclosed that its screening pass rate is only 35%. For example, a 32-year-old surrogate mother was eliminated due to a family history of diabetes, while another 28-year-old woman was allowed to join only after additional counseling was required due to a psychological assessment showing a tendency to anxiety. II. Legal framework: clear rights and responsibilities and client protection Georgia has constructed a client-centered legal system since the legalization of surrogacy in 1997: Legal Parental Rights: The birth certificate only registers the name of the commissioning parents, and the surrogate mother has no legal rights, ensuring that the parent-child relationship is not disputed.Contractual constraints: The surrogacy agreement specifies the cost payment nodes (e.g., successful embryo implantation, mid-pregnancy, and after delivery), medical liability, and breach of contract clauses. If the mother suffers a miscarriage due to her own reasons, she will only be partially compensated.Cross-border…

    Low Progesterone and Poor HCG Doubling in Surrogate Mothers

    Scientific Interpretation and Management Strategies for Low Progesterone and Poor HCG Doubling in Surrogate Mothers

    2025-04-21

    Clinical Case: Emily’s Pregnancy Confusion Emily, 32 years old, used to have regular menstruation (35 days cycle, 5-7 days menstrual period), but now she had menopause for 45 days, and her urine pregnancy test was weakly positive for three consecutive days. The blood test results show HCG 1020 mIU/ml and progesterone 75 nmol/mL (about 23.8 ng/mL). Faced with this result, Emily is concerned about the outcome of the pregnancy and inquires about the need for fetal preservation. I. Physiologic significance of HCG and progesterone Maintaining luteal function: HCG stimulates the ovarian corpus luteum to transform into the gestational corpus luteum, which continues to secrete progesterone until the formation of the placenta.Immunomodulation: Suppressing the maternal immune system’s attack on the embryo, ensuring safe embryo implantation.Embryonic development support: promotes the formation of the placenta and the establishment of maternal and fetal blood circulation. Stabilizing the endometrium: Ensuring the endometrium’s tolerance and providing a suitable environment for the embryo to settle.Inhibit uterine contraction: reduce the excitability of uterine smooth muscle and prevent the risk of preterm labor. II. Clinical value and limitations of HCG doubling test Early pregnancy (before 6-7 weeks gestation): HCG should increase 1.6-2 times every 48 hours. Any rate lower than this suggests abnormal embryonic development or risk of ectopic pregnancy.Middle to late pregnancy: HCG growth rate slows down and needs to be combined with ultrasound to assess fetal structural development. Embryonic factors: chromosomal abnormalities, defective trophoblast function (more than 60% of cases).Maternal factors: luteal insufficiency, abnormal thyroid function, or insufficient blood supply to the uterus.Ectopic pregnancy: about 17% of ectopic pregnancies have normal HCG doubling in the early stage, and ultrasound is needed to confirm the diagnosis. III. Prediction of pregnancy outcome by combined progesterone and HCG assessment Low progesterone group (<15 ng/mL): incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes (miscarriage,…

    New breakthrough in the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome: targeting TNF-α inhibitors to enhance fertility success rate

    2025-04-16

    I. TNF-α: a core driver of inflammation in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex endocrine-metabolic disease characterized by hyperandrogenemia, insulin resistance, and ovulatory disorders. Recent studies have found that chronic inflammatory state is the core pathological mechanism of PCOS, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), as a key inflammatory mediator, crosstalks pathological processes such as oxidative stress, insulin resistance, obesity and hormonal imbalance. Oxidative-antioxidant imbalance: reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels are significantly elevated in PCOS patients, and TNF-α further stimulates ROS production by activating the NF-κB pathway, creating a self-reinforcing inflammatory-oxidative stress cycle.Ovarian cell damage: Excessive ROS directly impaired the mitochondrial function of follicular granulosa cells, leading to follicular developmental stagnation and ovulation disorders. Receptor dysfunction: TNF-α inhibits insulin signaling by phosphorylating insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and reduces the activity of glucose transporter protein GLUT-4, leading to abnormal glucose metabolism.Visceral fat accumulation: insulin resistance promotes fat accumulation in the abdomen, and visceral adipose tissue releases more TNF-α, forming a positive feedback of “metabolism-inflammation. Enhancement of androgen synthesis: TNF-α activates ovarian CYP17A1 enzyme, which directly promotes testosterone production, and inhibits aromatase activity, which hinders the conversion of testosterone to estrogen49.Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) inhibition: increases the bioactivity of free testosterone by decreasing hepatic SHBG levels. II. Anti-TNF-α therapy: from animal model to clinical validation DHEA-induced PCOS model: In female rats, the use of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) induced PCOS-like symptoms manifested by ovarian polycysticity, hormonal imbalance and metabolic disorders.Etanercept (Etanercept) intervention effect: After 35 days of combined DHEA and TNF-α inhibitor Etanercept treatment, rats showed restoration of ovarian morphology, a 30% decrease in testosterone levels, and a 25% increase in insulin sensitivity, confirming that TNF-α inhibition reversed the PCOS phenotype. STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective analysis that included 100 patients with PCOS showed that the group receiving TNF-α inhibitors (e.g.,…

    Georgia's Advanced IVF: How Vitamin D is the Scientific Key to Improving Embryo Quality and Pregnancy Rates

    Georgia’s Advanced IVF: How Vitamin D is the Scientific Key to Improving Embryo Quality and Pregnancy Rates

    2025-04-12

    I. The association between vitamin D and advanced fertility: from contradictory conclusions to precise interpretations Vitamin D supplementation is often mentioned for women of advanced reproductive age who choose IVF in Georgia, but its mechanism of action and effects are controversial. Early studies showed that the association between vitamin D levels and pregnancy outcomes was not significant , but in recent years there has been increasing evidence that the clinical value of vitamin D is particularly prominent in the advanced age group, especially in improving endometrial tolerance and reducing the risk of chromosomal abnormalities in embryos. A study of 1,459 women undergoing IVF treatment for the first time showed: Younger group (<35 years): clinical pregnancy rates in the vitamin D-sufficient group were slightly higher than in the deficient group, but the statistical difference was not significant.The older group (≥35 years): the clinical pregnancy rate in the vitamin D sufficiency group was significantly higher than that in the deficiency group (P<0.05) and was directly correlated with the expression level of the endometrial tolerance marker HOXA10.CORE CONCLUSION: Vitamin D has a limited direct effect on egg quality but significantly improves the environment for embryo implantation in women of advanced reproductive age by modulating endometrial function. II. Dual mechanism of action of vitamin D in advanced fertility Endometrial tolerance is the key to embryo implantation, and endometrial function deterioration is common in women of advanced age. Research findings: HOXA10 gene expression: Vitamin D directly regulates the expression of the HOXA10 gene, a central marker of endometrial tolerance, through activation of the vitamin D receptor (VDR).Age-specific effects: In young women, only severe vitamin D deficiency reduces HOXA10 levels; in older women, even mild vitamin D insufficiency significantly inhibits HOXA10 expression, leading to a higher risk of embryo implantation failure. One of the greatest challenges…

    Six Core Reasons Why Global Families Choose Georgian Surrogacy

    2025-04-08

    Clear and Internationally Friendly Legal FrameworkGeorgia is one of the few countries in the world that explicitly allows commercial surrogacy, and its legal system, centered on the Civil Code, provides the following guarantees for international families: Undisputed parental ownership: the baby’s birth certificate directly registers the name of the commissioning parents, and the surrogate mother is not legally connected in any way, without the need for additional litigation or paternity testing.Legalization of transnational surrogacy: The law does not distinguish between nationals and foreigners, allowing married heterosexual couples (regardless of nationality) to have children through surrogacy, and the ownership of embryos belongs entirely to the commissioning party.Mandatory binding contracts: Surrogacy agreements must be legally notarized, clarifying the surrogate mother’s responsibilities, sharing of medical expenses and compensation standards to avoid disputes.Policy Stability: Despite the discussion of banning international surrogacy in 2023, the existing law still protects the rights and interests of the contracted families, and as long as the embryo transfer is completed before the policy change, the process will not be affected. Sophisticated medical technology and leading success rates Georgia’s assisted reproduction technology has reached an internationally advanced level and is particularly strong in the following areas: Third generation IVF (PGT):It can screen for chromosome aneuploidy (PGT-A) and monogenic diseases (PGT-M), and the live birth rate has been raised to 60%-70%, which is much higher than that of traditional technologies.For older women (>38 years old) or those with poor sperm quality, multiple cycles of ovulation are supported to reserve healthy embryos.Laboratory equipment and process: Adoption of timeline culture system, microscopic operation fertilization (ICSI) and other advanced technologies to significantly optimize embryo quality.Individualized treatment plan: precise ovulation protocols are formulated according to the patient’s age and ovarian function, which reduces side effects of medication and improves the success rate.H3: Cost-effective and transparent…

    Full Analysis of Surrogacy in Georgia: Policies, Processes, and Ethical Controversies

    2025-04-07

    Legality and Policy Status of Surrogacy in Georgia Georgia is one of the few countries in Central Asia and Eastern Europe that explicitly allows commercial surrogacy, with a legal framework centered on the Law on the Protection of Citizens’ Health, which guarantees the legality of the process. According to the current law: Scope of legality: only married heterosexual couples are allowed to have children through surrogacy, with proof of marriage and medical certificates (e.g. infertility diagnosis).Parental rights: the birth certificate of the baby is directly registered in the name of the commissioning parents, the surrogate mother has no legal connection.Qualifications of surrogate mother: She must be 21-35 years old, have a healthy BMI, have at least one history of successful births, and have no bad habits such as smoking or alcohol abuse.Policy Controversy: In early 2024, the Georgian government proposed a draft ban on surrogacy for foreigners, but the policy has not yet been officially implemented due to industry opposition and demand from international clients. Current surrogacy services are still open to international clients, but the law may be tightened in the future. Surrogacy Core Process and Technical Requirements Georgian surrogacy is known for its transparent process and mature technology, which is mainly divided into the following stages: Pre-preparation and matchingMedical assessment: the commissioning party needs to complete basic tests such as sex hormones, ovarian reserve (AMH), semen analysis, etc.Surrogate Mother Screening: Agencies match surrogates based on health, psychological and reproductive history, and some agencies provide egg donor databases.Ovulation Promotion and Embryo CultureTechnology application: Third generation IVF technology (PGT) is used to screen for chromosomal abnormalities and single gene disorders, increasing the live birth rate to 60%-70%.Embryo transfer: Selection of healthy blastocysts for transfer to the uterus of the surrogate mother, with luteal support and 48 hours of rest after…
