ICSI is typically recommended for couples with male infertility, including low sperm count, poor sperm quality, or other issues with sperm function.

How does ICSI work?

During ICSI, a single sperm is carefully selected and then directly injected into an egg. The resulting embryos are then evaluated and the best ones are selected for transfer back into the uterus.

Is ICSI painful?

ICSI is not typically painful, but some women may experience mild discomfort during the egg retrieval process and during the implantation of the embryos.

What are the success rates of ICSI?

The success rates of ICSI vary depending on many factors such as the age of the woman, the cause of infertility, and the quality of the sperm. On average, the success rate of ICSI is around 50-60% per cycle.

How long does an ICSI cycle take?

An ICSI cycle typically takes around 4-6 weeks, including preparation, sperm collection, egg retrieval, fertilization, and embryo transfer.

What are the risks associated with ICSI?

ICSI is a safe and effective procedure, but there are some risks involved, such as multiple pregnancies, Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS), and ectopic pregnancy.
