Parent compatibility test

How Compatible Are Your Parenting Styles?

The birth of a child has a major impact on marriage – the truth is that things will never be the same. The partners need to get used to the new situation, adjust to having a baby, and find a common perspective on how to raise a child. Couples with young children may often need to put themselves second and attend to the little one’s needs before everything else. Children can make couples stronger, or on the contrary, they can worsen bad situations all the more. If the two spouses don’t share a similar parenting style, decisions related to their children will always be a starting point for fights. Take this How compatible are your parenting styles quiz to find out if you two have compatible parenting styles.

Your parenting style can affect how your child engages with the world and influence how they navigate their lives into adulthood. This can range from the partners and friends we seek out to our relationship with food and exercise.

There are three parenting styles.

Authoritative: This is a nurturing and supportive parenting style, with firm limits set for children. To try to control their child’s behavior, parents will often explain and discuss the rules and limits they’ve set. They will listen to their child’s point of view but may not consider it.

Permissive: Permissive parents are known to be loving and warm but don’t usually monitor their children closely or set hard boundaries with clear expectations of appropriate behavior. According to the American Psychological Association, children who grow up with permissive guardians tend to be impulsive, rebellious, aggressive and have challenges with self-reliance and self-control.
Uninvolved or flexible: Parents who are in the category of flexibility or uninvolved (sometimes called laissez-faire) have a style that may be seen as unavailable, neglectful or absent. Children of these parents may have challenges with self-esteem and seek out unhealthy substitutions for parents. According to a 2019 study, people with uninvolved parents often have trouble with social relationships and emotional regulation.

This brief, time-saving questionnaire is designed for anyone who may have questions about the parenting style they were raised under.

The quiz could also be helpful if you have questions about your own parenting style or about your child’s responses to your decision making.

This online screening is not a definitive tool. The quiz will not determine the reasoning behind your feelings and behaviors or your children’s.

Still, it can be useful if you’re thinking about where to begin conversations or determining whether you’d like to consider therapy for yourself, your child, or your family.

Instructions

For each item, indicate how much you agree or disagree with the statement. Take your time and answer truthfully for the most accurate results. (If both parents are available, it might be a good idea for both to take the quiz and then compare their parenting styles.)

This online screening is not a diagnostic tool. Only a trained medical professional, like a doctor or mental health professional, can help you determine the next best steps for you.

Postcoital test for couple compatibility for conception in Rostov-on-Don

Reminder before passing the postcoital test

The verdict “infertility” can be passed by a gynecologist to a couple in which, for 12 months of unprotected intimate life, a woman has not been able to get pregnant. This is not a diagnosis, because the causes of infertility can be different, and certainly should not be treated as a sentence. Most often, this is a temporary condition due to various objective reasons - both the state of health of both partners and their immunological compatibility - a factor necessary for successful conception.

To find out how spouses fit each other from a biological point of view, they conduct special tests for couples for two for compatibility. Here we mean not psychological, but biological parameters, on which the degree of probability of conceiving a child depends. The patterns to which she obeys are fundamentally dependent on the woman's immune system.

You can do a postcoital test in Rostov-on-Don to determine the compatibility of your couple at the DaVinci Medical Center. Our specialists have all the necessary equipment and high qualifications to conduct research with high accuracy.

What is testing and when is it done?

It is carried out between 9 and 14 hours after unprotected intercourse. Its other name is the Shuvarsky test. It shows how much the secret secreted by the cervical canal of the cervix is able to pass male germ cells into the uterus.

Note: The cervical canal is the “entrance” to the uterus that connects the uterus and vagina. Its length is about 2 cm.

What does it mean? The fact is that in some cases, the lady's immune system fails. She begins to attack the spermatozoa penetrating the body, mistaking them for pathogenic bacteria. To combat them, the female body may begin to produce special antibodies. After a massive attack by antibodies, the activity of male germ cells decreases, and within a few hours they die. In rare cases, one of them manages to reach the egg, but the chromosomal "charge" that it carries will inevitably be damaged. This can lead to the formation of a fetal egg, but it is also destined to die in a short time - up to 3 weeks.

abortion;
intrauterine device;
infectious disease.

Sometimes the body of a man is also a source of antibodies to spermatozoa (paradoxically, but a fact). For example, he may begin to produce them after an injury or surgery on the scrotum.

A study by the Shuvarsky method is also carried out if the “profile” diseases that can lead to infertility are not found in any of the spouses, but nevertheless the woman cannot conceive for a long time. The result of the test is to determine the quantity and quality of male germ cells in the secretion of the cervical canal - a special mucus, and the properties of this mucus. They change in different phases of the cycle. During the ovulation period, the mucus should be thin and watery so that the most active "messengers" pass through it without interference.

the amount of active "content" in seminal fluid;
properties of the secret produced by the uterus;
the fact of the presence of antibodies to spermatozoa (indirectly, according to the state of spermatozoa).

If there are too few spermatozoa in the sample, and those that are present are inactive and cannot move in the mucus, the partners are considered immunologically incompatible.

Preparation

A test for the compatibility of a couple for conception is carried out strictly on a certain day. Usually it is 13-15 days of the menstrual cycle , in which, as a rule, the ovulation phase begins. But, since each organism is unique, your attending gynecologist will appoint a specific date after conducting preliminary studies. In particular, to accurately determine the beginning of the ovulation phase of the cycle, it may be necessary to plot the change in basal body temperature over 3-4 months. Basal temperature is measured at home by inserting a thermometer shallowly into the anus, no more than 6 cm, in the morning. The periods when it rises to 37 degrees serve as a signal for the onset of ovulation.

First you need to make sure that there are no infections in the pelvic area, bacterial, viral or fungal, incl. thrush. A permanent partner of a woman must pass a spermogram - a study on the reproductive qualities of sperm.

allow vaginal sexual contact, incl. protected;
use any drugs administered through the vagina, incl. medicines;
take medications that affect the ovulation cycle in any other way, such as tamoxifen (a detailed list will be given to you by a gynecologist).

Immediately after intercourse, it is unacceptable to go to the bath, douche or wash, although you can take a shower. It is recommended for a lady to lie down for about 30-40 minutes after coitus. To avoid leakage of ejaculate on the way to the clinic, it is recommended to use a sanitary napkin in combination with a sterile napkin (if the ejaculate is released in too copious amounts). Tampons cannot be used.

Procedure

The postcoital test is performed by sampling cervical fluid using a special sterile pipette or syringe without a needle. The procedure takes a few minutes and is completely painless.

After taking a, the doctor puts it on a glass slide, covers it with another and seals it with paraffin. The sample is sent to a laboratory for examination under a microscope.

Interpretation of results

Testing for the immunological identity of spouses can give a positive, questionable, poor or negative result. A positive result means a high chance of getting pregnant - in this case, the sample will show from 10 to 25 spermatozoa with good mobility.

A questionable result is 5-10 male germ cells moving slowly. It has two interpretations - either the cervical mucus depresses their vital activity, or the analysis was not taken in the ovulation phase. Re-analysis is required for confirmation.

The bad news is that the tailed “messengers” hit the right place, but they are motionless. Wednesday proved to be disastrous for them. This means that husband and wife are immunologically incompatible.

Negative - no sperm was found in the cervical canal at all. If there was no interrupted intercourse or the use of a condom, this may indicate problems with the release of ejaculate in a man.

CGT - Genetic Compatibility Test

What is the Genetic Compatibility Test (CGT)?

The Genetic Compatibility Test (CGT) is a genetic screening test that can scan for over 600 genetic diseases and over 6600 disease-causing mutations (breaks in the genetic code) at one time.

Couples who want to have children may have genetic conditions that they are not aware of. Until recently, it was not possible, both medically and technically, to simultaneously screen for all these genetic diseases. Now you can scan at the gene level with a simple blood test. In vitro fertilization embryos with genetic mutations and diseases detected by the genetic compatibility test can be sorted, and even in consanguineous marriages, healthy children can be born.

How is the Genetic Compatibility Test (CGT) Performed?

In order to carry out a genetic compatibility test, blood is drawn from the future parents. If a carrier or mutation is found in the resulting blood sample, all of their in vitro fertilization embryos can be screened by PGD, and only those that do not carry the mutation will be transferred. So couples, who are at risk of having a sick child may have healthy children. While genetic screening performed using classical methods can only detect individual genetic disorders, the genetic compatibility test tests hundreds of genetic diseases at the same time.

Who is the Genetic Compatibility Test (CGT) recommended for?

Anyone can take this test. However, in terms of its full information availability and the benefits it will provide to expectant parents, it is especially recommended for people/couples who fall under the following conditions:

• Patients with a history of genetic diseases in the family,
• Spouses of consanguinity,
• Couples who already have a child with a genetic disease and who want to become parents again.

Where is the Genetic Compatibility Test (CGT) Performed?

The genetic compatibility test is not carried out in every IVF center. All clinics of the Bahçeci Health Group carry out a genetic compatibility test, which allows us to identify embryos with genetic diseases and ensure that only healthy children are born to our patients. Closely following the development of reproductive science, we are pleased to implement all the latest technologies in our centers simultaneously with the world's leading clinics. Thanks to our advanced embryo lab our success rate exceeds European standards , especially in the category of difficult cases. We work closely with the University of Oxford and follow the latest scientific developments.

What is the Cost of the Genetic Compatibility Test (CGT)?

Compared to classical screening methods, where a single gene disorder can be studied, the cost of the genetic compatibility test is much lower, but due to the laws of the Republic of Turkey, we cannot share prices on our website.
