ICSI

ICSI is done for male factor infertility The eggs are collected from the female partner after hormonal stimulation. The sperm obtained by ejaculation or surgical methods are injected into the egg after careful selection (a normal looking moving sperm is chosen; however the genetic normalcy cannot be checked even by techniques like IMSI (ICSI with morphologically normal sperm). The success of fertilization is about 75% and the clinical pregnancy rate is about 40% as per international standards when no other causative factor is present.
