Advanced fertility treatment where a single sperm is directly injected into an egg, offering hope for couples facing male fertility challenges.
High-precision microscopic procedure for optimal results
Performed by highly skilled embryologists
Increased chances of successful fertilization
Understanding each step of your ICSI journey helps you feel more confident and prepared for the treatment ahead.
Mature eggs are collected from the ovaries through a minor surgical procedure.
A sperm sample is carefully prepared and the healthiest sperm are selected.
A single sperm is carefully injected directly into each mature egg.
Eggs are monitored for signs of successful fertilization.
Fertilized eggs are cultured for 3-5 days as they develop into embryos.
The best quality embryo(s) are transferred to the uterus.
ICSI provides several unique advantages for couples struggling with fertility challenges.
ICSI significantly increases fertilization rates in cases of severe male factor infertility, where natural fertilization is unlikely.
Overcomes issues with sperm that cannot penetrate the egg naturally due to motility or structural problems.
Only requires a single healthy sperm per egg, making it possible for men with very low sperm counts to father children.
Minimizes the risk of complete fertilization failure in IVF cycles, providing peace of mind.
Can be combined with preimplantation genetic testing to screen embryos for genetic abnormalities.
Has resulted in millions of healthy births worldwide since its introduction in the early 1990s.
ICSI can be transformative for many couples, but it's important to understand if you're an ideal candidate.
Men with low sperm count (oligospermia)
Men with poor sperm motility (asthenospermia)
Men with abnormal sperm morphology (teratospermia)
Couples who've had previous failed fertilization with conventional IVF
Men who have had a vasectomy or other blockage
Men who require surgical sperm extraction (TESE, MESA, etc.)
Couples using frozen sperm that may have reduced motility
Women with poor egg quality (may still require donor eggs)
Women with no viable eggs for retrieval
Couples where both partners have significant fertility issues
Cases where the genetic cause of infertility might be passed to offspring
