ICSI Treatment (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)
🌸 Advanced Fertility Technique for Male Factor Infertility
When male infertility becomes a barrier to conception, Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) offers one of the most successful solutions. ICSI is an advanced form of IVF that involves injecting a single healthy sperm directly into a mature egg to achieve fertilization.
Dr. Ankita Srivastava, a leading IVF & Reproductive Specialist in India, has extensive experience in performing ICSI for couples facing severe male infertility or repeated IVF failures. With cutting-edge techniques, personalized care, and high success rates, she ensures every couple receives the best possible chance of achieving parenthood.
What Is ICSI?
ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) is a highly specialized laboratory procedure used during IVF treatment. Unlike conventional IVF, where many sperm are placed with the egg for fertilization, ICSI uses a micropipette to inject a single, best-quality sperm directly into the egg.
This technique overcomes barriers like low sperm count, poor sperm motility, or abnormal sperm shape—conditions that make natural fertilization difficult.
Advantages of ICSI Treatment
✅ Overcomes severe male infertility factors
✅ Ensures fertilization even with very low sperm count
✅ Can be performed with surgically retrieved sperm
✅ Higher chances of fertilization compared to standard IVF
✅ Recommended for couples with repeated IVF failures
✅ Compatible with egg freezing, donor eggs, or donor sperm
Step-by-Step ICSI Process
✨ 1. Ovarian Stimulation & Egg Retrieval
The woman undergoes stimulation to produce eggs, which are retrieved under anesthesia.
✨ 2. Sperm Collection & Selection
Sperm is collected from the partner (or donor/surgical retrieval) and examined for quality.
✨ 3. Micromanipulation & Injection
A single healthy sperm is selected and injected directly into the egg using advanced micromanipulation technology.
✨ 4. Embryo Development
The fertilized egg develops into an embryo under close laboratory monitoring.
✨ 5. Embryo Transfer
Healthy embryo(s) are transferred into the uterus for implantation.
✨ 6. Pregnancy Confirmation
A blood test after 10–14 days confirms pregnancy.
