The spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has created uncommon situations all over the world. It has awfully affected not only the economic and social system but also the health practices of countries. An essential lockdown also closed the fertility clinics abruptly. Fertility clinics only prioritized cases, where patients either had an advanced age or having gametes frozen for a long time. But a large number of patients, undergoing the fertility treatment cycles, were not able to get services. This situation demanded a new way of providing such medical services so that the ongoing treatment can be equally effective even with social distancing.

Factors affecting Infertility Treatments in Pandemic

There is no significant proof that Covid – 19 can affect human fertility, pregnant woman, or her fetus in a natural pregnancy. But there is a chance of getting infected with the virus during the treatment cycle through ART services due to the exposure risk.

  • There are various studies going on for identifying the effects of coronavirus on sperm and egg performance. Also, experts are researching the unintended effect such as exposure of gametes and embryos in viruses during the infertility treatments such as IVF.
  • Patients located in remote areas, hotspot areas, or containment zones have less accessibility to reach the hospital in a lockdown situation. They are bound to take extra precautions and care to prevent the infection at home.
  • Couples, who are eagerly waiting for the treatment to start, are not able to visit the hospitals regularly and are getting anxious in this situation.

 

New Ways of Handling Infertility Treatments in Pandemic Situation

Dr Shivani Sachdev Gour – the best female fertility doctor in Delhi explains the following new methods of infertility treatments.

  • In India, almost 10% of cases of infertility are due to PCOS (Polycystic ovary syndrome). The treatment of such cases is dependent on lifestyle changes such as modifications in diet and exercise patterns. Make sure to cut off Tran fats, junk food, and sugary drinks from your diet and include protein-rich food in your diet.
  • While the lockdown has restricted the capacity of patients to the hospital, screening through remote systems such as video calls must adopt widely. Maternal care is an essential service that cannot be postponed even in these times. If an infertility treatment is going on, that must not be interrupted. But if treatments are more focused on lifestyle regimes, it can be suggested remotely through video calls or telemedicine.
  • Infertility is also caused by the increased stress level. Since lockdown has given an opportunity to people to stay at home in their comfort zone, couples trying to become parents must pay attention to lower their stress level by yoga, meditation, and spending quality time with their partners.
  • Treatments with the least clinic visits are suggested. Infertility services are prioritized in exceptional conditions, such as oocyte or sperm cryopreservation is undergoing chemotherapy for cancer patients and increasing age of patients. Covid guidelines and sanitizing measures must be followed by the fertility clinic. SCI IVF Hospital – the best infertility clinic in Delhi NCR is following all covid related guidelines and assures uninterrupted emergency fertility treatments.

COVID-19 may alter the way infertility treatment is provided: Doctors

“Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common conditions in Indian women; one out of 10 suffers from it. The treatment is 70 percent diet modification and 30 percent exercise. Ensure your diet is low in Tran’s fat – so say no to junk food and sugar – and increase the share of protein,” said Dr Shivani Sachdev Gour, founder & director, SCI Healthcare, New Delhi.

COVID -19 is a deadly virus that has affected almost every country in the world. India has started its vaccination drive for the people of the age gap between 18 – 44 on the 1st of May, 2021. Since then, wide data has been collected that shows the fewer women are getting jabbed as compared to men. As of 19 May 2021, a total of 22.20 crore people has been vaccinated with the first dose. Among which, 11.99 crores are males and 10.20 crore are females (Source: COWIN Website). The percentage of males vaccinated with the first dose is 54%, while females vaccinated is 45.9%. This shows the number of females getting vaccinated to attest to the first dose is almost 8.1% less than males, which is much lesser than the population gender gap of India.

 

Reasons of Lesser Women Getting Vaccinated

Gender disparity in vaccination cannot be neglected. Vaccination is essential for everyone irrespective of gender. Dr Shivani Sachdev Gour a doctor at SCI IVF Hospital – the best surrogacy clinic in Delhi highlighted the following reasons for lesser women getting vaccinated.

  • Lack of Internet Accessibility: There is a significant gender gap in mobile phones and internet users in India. This gap is worse in the villages. Since the slot booking of covid vaccines is available through the online mode, women are not able to book it online due to the lack of technological resources.
  • Lack of Transportation Modes: Covid vaccine is available at the various covid centres all across the country. Although the government is putting every possible effort to make the vaccine available at the nearest centres, still a lot of work needs to do. Some centres are very far from remote areas and women are not able to reach there all alone as they are dependent on the males in the house.
  • Misconceptions around Vaccination: There are lots of rumours and myths spreading around the vaccination for women that creates hesitancy among the menstruating women of 18 to 44 age gaps. Some myths are the menstruating women should not take the vaccine as it affects their period cycle, cause irregular periods, and can also affect their fertility. These myths restrain the women, who are considering getting pregnant in the near future, from taking the vaccine.

How to Encourage More Women to get Vaccinated

Women are almost half of the total population. The success of the fight against covid depends on the vaccination for all. Dr Shivani Sachdev Gour – the best gynaecologist in Delhi NCR suggests the following solution for encouraging women to get vaccinated.

  • The best way to encourage women to get jab is to burst the misconception prevailing around the vaccination. Vaccination does not affect fertility at all. Although some minor irregularity in the period cycle can be observed in some women, these side-effects are temporary.
  • Some state government initiatives such as pink booths that are only for women to get vaccinated should be applied in all states across India.
  • Involvement of ASHA and Anganvadi workers to raise awareness towards vaccination and organizing vaccination drives at the nearest booth for women can also be an effective method.

बच्चों में वैक्सीनेशन को लेकर क्या है एक्सपर्ट की राय…!

कोरोना की तीसरी लहर आने की आशंका जताई गई है. एक्सपर्ट का कहना है कि इसका सबसे अधिक असर बच्चों पर पड़ेगा. देश में अभी बच्चों को लेकर वैक्सीनेशन की शुरुआत नहीं की गई है. ऐसे में आइये जानते हैं,,, क्या कहना है एक्सपर्ट का…

VACCINATION IN CHILDREN

नई दिल्लीः देश में तीसरे चरण के अंतर्गत 18 साल से अधिक उम्र वाले लोगों का टीकाकरण किया जा रहा है. ऐसे में कई एक्सपर्ट कोरोनाके खतरे को देखते हुए 18 साल से कम उम्र के बच्चों के वैक्सीनेशन की भी सलाह दे रहे हैं. कई एक्सपर्ट्स का यह मानना है कि आने वाले दिनों में तीसरी लहर का भी सामना करना पड़ सकता है, जिसका सबसे ज्यादा असर बच्चों में देखने को मिल सकता है.

 

‘बच्चों में संक्रमण फैलने से रोकने के लिए किए जाएं सभी प्रयास’

Gynecologist डॉ. शिवानी सचदेवा का कहना है कि वैसे तो दूसरी लहर में भी बच्चे संक्रमण से प्रभावित हुए हैं. इसके बावजूद आवश्यकता इस बात की है कि यदि बच्चों में संक्रमण फैलता है, तो उसके लिए सभी जरूरी इंतजाम किए जाएं, जिस प्रकार से अन्य राज्यों और कई देशों में स्वास्थ्य सेवाओं को मजबूत किया गया है.

dr shivani sachdev gour

मुंबई में बच्चों के लिए 700 बेड वाला एक अस्पताल भी बनाया गया है. वहीं, कई देशों में 12 साल से अधिक उम्र के बच्चों का टीकाकरण भी शुरू हो गया है, लेकिन हमारे देश में अभी बच्चों के लिए वैक्सीनेशन को लेकर कुछ भी कह पाना संभव नहीं है, क्योंकि अगर बात पूरी आबादी की करें, तो 2 फ़ीसदी तक लोगों को भी अभी वैक्सीन नहीं लगी है.

 

अन्य देशों में शुरू हो गया है बच्चों का वैक्सीनेशन

डॉ. शिवानी ने बताया यूके, अमेरिका जैसे देशों में 12 साल से कम उम्र के बच्चों में भी वैक्सीनेशन को लेकर ट्रायल किए जा रहे हैं. वहीं, हमारे देश में कोवैक्सीन ट्रायल के लिए कहा गया है. भारत बायोटेक की ओर से वैक्सीन का ट्रायल 12 साल से कम उम्र के बच्चों पर किया गया है, जिसमें फेस-2 और फेस-3 ट्रायल के लिए 81% एफिकेसी बताई गई है.

 

बच्चों में किसी भी प्रकार के लक्षण दिखने पर तुरंत ले डॉक्टर की सलाह

चाइल्ड स्पेशलिस्ट डॉक्टर आशु खजूरिया ने बताया कि इस समय माता-पिता या बड़े लोगों को यह ध्यान रखने की आवश्यकता है कि वह बच्चों में किसी भी तरीके के लक्षण यदि देखते हैं, तो तुरंत डॉक्टर की सलाह लें. यदि किसी बच्चे में 100 से ज्यादा बुखार लगातार बना हुआ है. पेट दर्द, खांसी, जुखाम या कोई भी ऐसे लक्षण हैं, जो उसे परेशान कर रहे हैं, तो तुरंत डॉक्टर को दिखाएं.

 

डॉक्टर आशु ने बताया, क्योंकि छोटे बच्चे अधिकतर परेशानियां नहीं बता पाते हैं, ऐसे में माता-पिता को ही बच्चों का ध्यान रखना होता है. यह जरूर देखें कि किसी भी तरीके से बच्चे को बुखार या उसका ऑक्सीजन लेवल कम ना हो. अगर 94 से कम सेचुरेशन होता है, तो तुरंत डॉक्टर से सलाह लें. घर पर सेल्फ मेडिकेशन के लिए केवल पेरासिटामोल दे सकते हैं. इसके अलावा कोई भी self-medication ना करें.

 

सभी लोग जरूर लगवाएं वैक्सीन, जिससे घर पर आपके बच्चे को सुरक्षित

डॉक्टर आशु ने बताया कि बच्चों का ध्यान रखने की जिम्मेदारी बड़ों की और माता-पिता की है. कोरोना से बचाव के लिए, जो जरूरी नियम है, उनका पालन करें. अगर किसी भी तरीके से तबीयत खराब हो रही है, तो घर पर भी मास्क का इस्तेमाल करें. हाथों को बार-बार धोएं. घर में साफ-सफाई रखें. बच्चों को भी कोरोना वायरस के लिए जो जरूरी नियम हैं. उनका पालन करना सिखाएं.

 

उन्होंने बताया कि बच्चों के लिए वैक्सीनेशन को लेकर ट्रायल किए जा रहे हैं. जब तक, यह ट्रायल पूरे नहीं होते हैं. तब तक बच्चों के लिए वैक्सीनेशन शुरू हो पाना काफी मुश्किल है, इसीलिए अभी जिस प्रकार से 3 चरणों में वैक्सीनेशन किया जा रहा है. सभी बुजुर्गों, वरिष्ठ और युवाओं को वैक्सीनेशन दिया जा रहा है. वह वैक्सीन जरूर लगवाएं, जिससे कि घर पर अपने बच्चों को सुरक्षित रख सके.

Pregnant women do not appear more likely to contact the infection than the general population. However, pregnancy itself alters the body’s immune system and response to viral infections in general, which can occasionally be related to more severe symptoms and this will be the same for COVID-19.

Reported cases of COVID-19 pneumonia in pregnancy are milder and with good recovery.

Pregnant women with heart disease are at the highest risk (congenital or acquired).
