Unique advantages

Only one sperm is required to fertilize one egg not millions!
Fertilization is practically done
Useful when sperm count is less
Useful when sperm motility is less
- Very poor motility
- 100 % non motile sperm (zero motility)
Sperm with possibility of low fertilizing capacity can be used with similar success
- More number of abnormal form sperm - Teratospermia.
- Cryopreserved sperm
Azoospermia patients (Zero sperm count - Nil report)
- Sperm taken from epidydimis.
- Sperm taken from Testis.
Difficult to get sperm situations
- Electroejeculation
- Retrograde ejeculation etc.

ICSI offer better fertilization rate, and hence better pregnancy rate than conventional IVF.

Sperm selection is done with great skill depending on the shape, size, motility etc.The selected sperm is made nonmotile. The sperm is then picked up in a fine tube (pipette) and taken to oocyte (egg) to be fertilized.
