Background This study aimed to explore the current situation of anxiety and depression on day of transfer in couples receiving in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) with donor sperm and analyze its influencing factors. Methods This study selected 187 IVF-ET administered couples who received donor sperm from our Hospital from August 2021 to July 2022. On the day of IVF-ET with donor sperm transplantation, patients were investigated with general data questionnaire, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) to analyze their anxiety and depression scores and their influencing factors. Results Scores of anxiety and depression on the day of transplantation in patients receiving IVF-ET with donor sperm were 43.98±6.80 and 46.03±10.61 respectively, which were higher compared to levels of Chinese health norm ( P <0.05). The anxiety score of patients’ spouses was 41.23±6.69 and depression score was 44.23±11.65, which were higher compared to levels of Chinese health norm ( P <0.05). Score of anxiety and depression of women was significantly higher compared to those of their spouse ( P <0.05). Anxiety and depression scores of women in non-pregnant group were significantly higher compared to those in pregnant group ( P <0.05). Regression analysis showed that education level and annual family income were influencing factors of anxiety and depression scores of IVF-ET with donor sperm couples on the day of transfer, and number of eggs taken and transfer times were influencing factors of depression scores of IVF-ET with donor sperm patients on the day of transfer. Conclusion Psychological state of couples receiving IVF-ET with donor sperm was significantly affected, especially in female side. Medical staff should focus on patients with low education level, low family income, and more times of transfer and egg retrieval, and take targeted intervention measures to keep them in good psychological state, which is conducive to improving pregnancy outcome.
This study aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics, pregnancy outcomes and prognostic factors for pregnancy of female with chromosomal abnormalities (CAs) after artificial insemination with donor's sperm (AID) treatment. A retrospective case–control study was analyzed by using the data of 29 female patients with CA and 116 controlled patients with normal karyotype (1:4 ratio) who underwent AID cycles at Guangdong Family Planning Special Hospital from January 2011 to December 2017. In all cases, reproductive histories were collected, and the cytogenetic analysis was performed by Trypsin-Giemsa banding and karyotyping. The embryos were fertilized via intracervical or intrauterine insemination. Clinical characteristic variables were compared. The prevalence of CA was found to be 0.29% in the whole AID population. The live birth rates of CA group and controlled group were 41.4% and 31.0% ( P = .29) respectively. Compared to normal karyotype group, patients with CA showed higher rate of primary infertility (93.1% vs 75.9%, P = .049); Multivariate analysis demonstrated that ovarian stimulation (odds ratio, 3.055; 95% confidence interval, 1.421–6.568; P = .004) was associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes in female patients with AID treatment. For the infertility CA patients who were phenotypically normal, AID was a suitable choice, whereas ovarian stimulation results in an improvement in the pregnancy rate.
