Overview
About this service
ICSI is an advanced form of IVF in which a single, carefully selected sperm is injected directly into each mature egg. It is the treatment of choice when sperm count, motility or morphology stand in the way of natural fertilization.
Why it matters
Key benefits
Bypasses sperm barriers
Effective even with very low counts or poor motility.
Higher fertilization rate
Each viable egg is given the best possible chance.
Works with surgical sperm
Suitable when sperm is retrieved via TESA / TESE / micro-TESE.
