A specialized form of IVF, the Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) process is frequently employed to combat male infertility problems. Hence, it is most beneficial when there are concerns about male infertility.
ICSI is a specialized form of IVF. In ICSI, a single healthy sperm is injected directly into the cytoplasm of each mature egg. ICSI does away with the requirement for sperm to penetrate the egg for fertilization. Bypassing any potential obstacle the sperm may encounter in entering the egg, raises the likelihood of fertilisation.
The success rate of ICSI
Maternal age is an important factor in the success rate of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). The lower the age better the greater the chance of success. However, there are other factors like specific infertility issues, overall health, etc that determine the success rate.
