IN VITU FERTILIZATION – INTO CELL SPERM INJECTION (ICSI)

ICSI is a method of injecting sperm into the egg cytoplasm to create an embryo. This method is performed in a laboratory and is applicable to most cases of assisted reproduction. Sperm and eggs, after being “selected”, will combine to form an embryo and this embryo will be implanted into the woman’s uterus, and the mother will become pregnant like a naturally pregnant person. course.

ICSI is considered the most effective treatment method for male infertility due to different causes such as:

• All forms of abnormalities in sperm count and function: low sperm count, poor sperm motility, highly deformed sperm
• Abnormalities in sperm count and function: few sperm, poor sperm mobility, many deformed sperm
• There are no sperm in the semen, sperm must be retrieved surgically
• Missing or damaged vas deferens (tube responsible for carrying sperm from the testicles to the penis)
• Have had vasectomy surgery

In addition, ICSI is currently a routine indication for cases such as:

• Fertilization abnormalities: the husband’s sperm and the wife’s eggs are normal, but cannot be fertilized or the fertilization rate is low; or suspected abnormalities in fertilization between egg and sperm
• The wife has few, poor quality eggs
• Infertility of unknown cause
• Failed many times with normal IVF

Currently, according to worldwide statistics, ICSI is considered a safe and effective treatment technique. This technique helps treat most cases of male infertility, and also contributes to increasing the success rate when used to treat infertility due to other causes.
