COMPLICATIONS OF IN VITRO FERTILISATION PREGNANCIES VISITING DEHRADUN, UTTARAKHAND

Abstract

Background: With fewer instances of difficulties, assisted reproductive technologies have been extensively embraced in 
India. Nonetheless, a number of elevated hazards have been observed, such as gestational diabetes, hypertension, and 
preterm.  
Aim: The objective of the current clinical investigation was to examine main problems and risk factors related to in-vitro 
fertilisation (IVF) pregnancies. 
Methods: The procedures, relevant risk factors, and problems connected to IVF were examined in 310 female patients. 
Following a statistical analysis of the collected data, conclusions were drawn.  
Results: The study's findings indicated that utilising two embryos during embryo transfer was linked to a greater risk of 
twin pregnancies. With p<0.05, no meaningful correlation was seen between any number of pregnancies with either 
gestational diabetes or gestational hypertension. With p>0.05, the study's findings did not demonstrate a significant 
correlation between gestational age, gestational diabetes, or gestational hypertension. Additionally, there was no significant 
association (p=0.66) between the aetiology of infertility and gestational age. Eighteen participants reported having ARDS 
(acute respiratory distress syndrome) out of 68 preterm newborns.  
Conclusion: there is a correlation between the number of embryos and multiple pregnancies. While twin pregnancies are 
more likely in younger women having in-vitro fertilisation pregnancies, gestational hypertension is more common in older 
females. With no difference in the age of the females, IVF pregnancies have a greater rate of preterm births.
