Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is a specialized form of In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) that is primarily used for the treatment of severe male-factor infertility. Unlike conventional IVF, where thousands of sperm are placed near an egg in a dish, ICSI involves the precise injection of a single healthy sperm directly into the center of a mature egg. This technique bypasses the natural barriers to fertilization, making it possible for men with very low sperm counts, poor motility, or abnormal morphology to father biological children.

Overcoming Barriers to Fertilization

ICSI has revolutionized reproductive medicine by providing a solution for the most difficult infertility cases. Our highly skilled embryologists use advanced micromanipulation tools to select the highest quality sperm. This procedure significantly improves fertilization rates and is often recommended for couples who have experienced previous IVF failures, those using surgically retrieved sperm (TESA/TESE), or in cases of unexplained infertility where standard IVF might not be effective.

Why Choose ICSI?

ICSI offers hope when other methods fail. It ensures that the sperm successfully enters the egg, maximizing the chances of creating a viable embryo. This method is particularly effective for severe male infertility, ensuring that biological parenthood is still a possibility.
