What is ICSI?
Intracytoplasmic
Sperm Injection (ICSI) is a very effective method to fertilize eggs in the IVF
lab after they have been aspirated from the female. During the past decade,
ICSI has been applied increasingly around the world to alleviate problems of
severe male infertility.

case of severe male infertility then ICSI is applied.
Why Intracytoplasmic
Sperm Injection is done?
Ø ICSI is used to treat severe
male infertility, as when little or no sperm are ejaculated in the semen.
Immature sperm collected from the testicles are more likely to fertilize an egg
through ICSI.
Ø In cases where severe male
factor infertility that do not want donor sperm insemination
Ø ICSI is used when IVF has not
worked after repeated tries. Low rate of fertilization.
Ø ICSI is used to try to get a
higher percentage of eggs fertilized than with conventional insemination of the
eggs (mixing eggs and sperm together).
Ø ICSI is also used for couples who
are planning to test the embryo for certain genetic problems.
Ø A need to use frozen sperm that is
not of the best quality

sperm.

is then carefully inserted through the zona (shell of the egg) and
in to the center (cytoplasm) of the egg.

The sperm is
injected in the cytoplasm and the needle is removed.

The eggs are
checked the next morning for evidence of normal fertilization.
