The process of ICSI takes place after the egg and sperm are retrieved. The egg is placed in the culture dish and instead of being surrounded by sperm, a tiny needle is used to inject a single, healthy, high-quality sperm into the egg.
ICSI allows for a greater level of control over the health and quality of the sperm used for fertilization, and creates the opportunity for men with low sperm counts or sperm quality issues to become fathers. Call us to set up an appointment and see if ICSI is the right next step for you.
