Before this test was carried out, the center selected IVF babies of different ages to take the test. These babies were previously bred by the hospital using in vitro fertilization - embryo transfer method. The oldest one was 4 years old and the youngest one was 8 months old. Why are IVF babies no different from normal babies? Director Liu Yun explained that IVF babies are the same as normally conceived babies. They are embryos formed by the combination of reproductive cells from their father and mother, inheriting genetic material from their parents. The embryo is implanted in the mother's body, becomes pregnant, and is eventually naturally delivered. Its development and growth process is the same as that of a normal fetus, so there will be no abnormalities in intelligence and physical development. According to the evaluation, the results of all items tested are no different from those of normally born babies, and the test values are within the normal range. This is a comprehensive test conducted again by the hospital on the physical and intellectual development of IVF babies, providing evidence to eliminate the concerns of infertile patients about "IVF babies". Will the physical and intellectual development of IVF babies be the same as that of normal babies? On April 20, the Reproductive Medicine Center of Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Region held a get-together activity with the theme of "conceiving life, caring for growth", and conducted a comprehensive test on the physical development and intelligence of 43 IVF babies who returned for a visit. The doctors conducted a comprehensive test on the children's physical development, mental development, etc. The test results showed that each "IVF baby" who took the test had good physical development or above, and intelligent development at or above the average level, with 10% reaching excellent intelligence level, and none had developmental problems or intellectual defects.
