Advanced Fertility Solutions
A highly specialized technique for overcoming severe male infertility and previous IVF failures.
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is a specialized form of IVF designed to help couples with male factor infertility. Unlike standard IVF, where sperm and eggs are mixed in a dish, ICSI involves the precision injection of a single healthy sperm directly into the center of a mature egg.
Dr. Santosh Gupta recommends ICSI for cases involving:
The Technology
Similar to IVF, the female partner undergoes stimulation to produce multiple eggs, which are then retrieved.
Our embryologists use high-magnification microscopes to select the single healthiest, most motile sperm.
Using a micromanipulator, the selected sperm is gently injected directly into the cytoplasm of the egg to ensure fertilization.
Even if sperm count is extremely low, ICSI requires only one healthy sperm per egg to achieve fertilization.
By bypassing the egg's outer shell, ICSI significantly improves fertilization rates compared to conventional IVF.
ICSI creates embryos that are suitable for genetic testing (PGT-A) to screen for chromosomal abnormalities.
