What is ICSI?
ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)
In this procedure, a single healthy sperm is carefully injected directly into an egg to maximize the chances of fertilization.
ICSI is often used when sperm quality or quantity is low or when previous IVF attempts haven’t been successful.

The advanced ICSI technique is set to redefine fertility treatment success.

When Do You Need ICSI?
ICSI is recommended when natural fertilization is difficult due to male infertility issues such as low sperm count, poor sperm movement, or abnormal shape. It is also used if previous IVF attempts have failed or when using frozen or surgically retrieved sperm.
How Does ICSI Work?
ICSI is a highly effective fertility treatment used as part of IVF. Here’s a simple breakdown of the process:
Step 1: Ovarian Stimulation

- The woman takes hormone injections for about 10–14 days to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.
- Regular scans and blood tests monitor egg development.
Step 2: Egg Retrieval (Egg Collection)
- Once the eggs are mature, they are collected from the ovaries using a fine needle under light sedation or anaesthesia.
Step 3: Sperm Collection & Selection
- A sperm sample is provided by the male partner or retrieved surgically if needed.
- The best-quality sperm is selected under a microscope for injection.
Step 4: Sperm Injection (ICSI Procedure)
- A single, healthy sperm is injected directly into each mature egg using a specialized microscope and microneedle.
Step 5: Fertilization & Embryo Development
- The injected eggs are monitored in the lab for fertilization.
- The fertilized eggs (embryos) grow for a few days before selection.
Step 6: Embryo Transfer
- A healthy embryo is chosen and placed into the woman’s uterus using a thin, painless catheter.
- Extra embryos can be frozen for future use.
Step 7: Pregnancy Test
- About 10–14 days after the embryo transfer, a blood test is done to check for pregnancy.
