Things to avoid during IVF injections

“In-Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) treatment involves administering of a lot of injections to regulate hormones, stimulate eggs, etc. During IVF injections, it’s important to follow medical guidance carefully to maximise your chances of success and minimise complications,” stated Dr. Gunjan Gupta, well-known gynaecologist Ghaziabad and Medical Director & Founder of Gunjan IVF World – three times winner of North India’s best IVF clinic chain by Economic Times. Gunjan IVF World has four highly advanced IVF clinics in Indirapuram, Janakpuri, Noida and Meerut.

Lifestyle factors: “It is always our endeavour to make our patients aware of the things that they need to avoid when going through IVF treatment and injections. Lifestyle factors play a big role on the outcomes of the treatment. We advise our couples to avoid alcohol consumption and smoking as both negatively affect fertility and hormone levels. Limiting caffeine intake to 200 mg i.e., one cup of coffee is important,” mentioned Dr. Garima Sharma, Centre In-Charge and Consultant at Gunjan IVF World – the best IVF clinic in Janakpuri. “We usually advise couple to get off recreational drugs during the time of IVF injections as these may interfere with hormone production and embryo development. Working out extensively too can impact ovulation or implantation. That is why we recommend light or moderate exercises and yoga during this period. Stress plays a very important role in the success or failure of IVF treatments. High level of stress impacts hormone levels. So, try and relax most of the time by doing meditation or breathing exercises,” added Dr. Gunjan Gupta.

Avoid medication and injection mistakes: Skipping or taking injections beyond stipulated time can impact the outcomes of your treatment. They are time-sensitive and should not be missed.

Never take over-the-counter medication: It is always advised that you check with your IVF doctor before taking over-the-counter medicines. These can interfere with ovulation and implantation. Also avoid herbal supplements for the time being as they might interact with IVF medications or affect hormone levels.

Physical and environmental factors: Going for hot tubs, saunas should be avoided during this time as they can raise the body temperatures which can impact egg quality or embryo implantation. Stay away from crowded places to be infection-free. Also, make sure to be up-to-date on all required vaccinations.
