We test the AMH, FSH, LH, Estradiol, Prolactin and TSH. In addition, the D-dimers are measured. In addition, a blood group determination, including Rhesus factor, is determined and we gain insight into the hemoglobin, platelets and leukocytes through the general blood test. Finally, the CA-125 is also measured. This is a very complete IVF blood test.Microbiologically, some things are also measured: HIV, Hepatitis B antigen and Hepatitis B core, Hepatitis C, Rubella IgM and IgG, Toxoplasmosis IgM and IgG, Syphilis ( Lues), Chlamydia IgG and VZV IgG. These are partly STD tests and partly pathogens that can cause congenital abnormalities.
Hepatitis screening: Hepatitis B (HBsAG), Hepatitis B (HBsAc ), Hepatitis B (HBcAc IcM), Hepatitis B (HBcAC total), Hepatitis C
Screening for infectious diseases is a common procedure in IVF. If this is not investigated, the infectious diseases may be transmitted to the child. If the result is positive, measures can then be taken to prevent this. This screening looks at hepatitis B and hepatitis C.Syphilis & HIV: Syphilis (VDRL method), HIV
In the Netherlands, in addition to hepatitis screening, pregnant women are also tested for syphilis (lues) and HIV. As with hepatitis, syphilis and HIV can also be transmitted during pregnancy. Syphilis can cause birth defects or lead to miscarriage. For this reason it is important to test this. In the event of a positive result, antibiotics can be treated in consultation with a doctor.Blood group: Blood group and Rhesus factor
Someone who is rhesus factor D negative can produce antibodies against rhesus factor D after coming into contact with someone who is rhesus D positive. When this occurs in pregnant women, it can harm the unborn child. Your antibodies will then destroy your child's cells. We do the blood test for blood group and rhesus factor at the beginning and in week 27 of pregnancy.Thyroid values: TSH (+ fT4)
If you have problems with your thyroid, it can affect pregnancy or becoming pregnant. The thyroid gland regulates various processes in your body and is therefore an important organ. An underactive thyroid gland can affect your ovulation. An underactive or fast-acting thyroid gland can also cause problems during pregnancy itself. In case of abnormal TSH values, the free T4 is determined automatically.
The results of this IVF blood test will be sent to your Genesis practitioner. You will do this test on day two of your cycle.
