How Does ICSI Work & Why Is It Required?
ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) is a specialised fertilisation technique that involves selecting a single, healthy sperm and directly injecting it into the mature egg. This method bypasses natural fertilisation barriers, enhancing the chances of conception. The resulting embryo is nurtured in a controlled environment before potential transfer to the uterus. ICSI addresses male factor infertility, failed IVF attempts, and challenges due to advanced maternal age or blocked fallopian tubes, offering hope for successful pregnancy.
