What is
ICSI?
ICSI is an IVF procedure only but is commonly used to help the
men with low sperm count say less than10 million /ml ,with more of the dead
sperm count is less no. of motile sperms less than 40% or azospermia meaning no sperms in semen analysis but mature
sperms can be found on testicular biopsy.
When all the other natural alternative methods like
nutritional education ,herbal medication
to boost their strength, saying no to
alcohol ,avoiding smoking ,avoiding tight garment & exposure to heat have
failed to increase the sperm count or enhance the motility IVF-ICSI treatment method is adapted .Some
clinics use icsi procedure for all ivf cases it gives a high fertilization rate
whereas others use it for previous failed ivf treatments for severe male factor
infertility, poor quality embryos or
less no. of retrieved eggs. The
procedure requires a highly skilled embryologist.
PROCEDURE
OF IVF ICSI
IVF with
ICSI involves the a use of specialized equipment like micromanipulator and
inverted microscope which enables the embryologist to high magnification to
visualize & choose the best morphologically looking sperm ,to pick up in
the sperm holding pipette ,immobilising
the tail & then slowly piercing the shell of the egg gently, entering
through the cell membrane into the cytoplasm of the egg ,injecting the sperm nuclear material into the egg.
SUCCESS RATE OF IVF ICSI
ICSI has a v. high fertilization success rate .Approximately 80% of the eggs are successfully fertilized by ICSI procedure but from here, the fertilized embryo has to start its journey of successful implantation in the mother`s womb. Only 45% of women that undergo ICSI treatment go right through to the end and give birth to healthy babies.
Why are the ICSI rates not that important?
ICSI rates are not really that important because the ICSI treatment method involves the use of the ivf technique. Because the ICSI rates are already quite high, there is only a 20% chance of not successfully conceiving and therefore the majority of cases are left up to success rates of ivf.
