What Is ICSI?

This is a type of injection used in the IVF treatment, if even after the multiple cycles of IVF there is no successful result. In this procedure sperm is directly injected to the mature egg. It is done for patients dealing with a lower sperm count, abnormalities in the morphology of sperm, and if there is no semen to be found in the semen analysis. 

In males these days infertility has become quite common. The most common problem is that no sperm is released during ejaculation, this can be due to various disorders, such as anejaculation which is caused due to semen instead of releasing through penis changes its path and enters  the bladder, which is also called retrograde ejaculation. 

What are medical procedures involved in ICSI?

The ICSI procedure India is listed below. This procedure comes within the IVF and the procedures within ICSI are given below. Plan your ICSI treatment in India for affordable treatments and specialised medical staff.

• First ovulation stimulation is done for increasing the rate of egg production 
• Then ultrasound is done for observing egg retrieval, it is called transvaginal ultrasound aspiration. 
• Semen analysis is done in a lab where all the information about the semen is analysed.
• Sperm is collected through the surgical process later through the procedures such as TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration), PESA (Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration) and Micro-TESE (Microscopic Testicular Sperm Extraction). 
• Once they are extracted through the surgical procedures then are ready for the next procedure where the sperm extracted has to be injected with the use of micro-injection. This procedure is known as micromanipulation. The sperm extracted is then injected to the center of the mature egg. 
• Then the stage of embryo culture comes where development of embryos are observed which is done in a laboratory outside the body. 
• Blastocyst culture is a procedure where for five to six days the embryos in a laboratory are grown under observation. 
• After the embryo culture comes the stage of embryo freezing for future cycles, if you plan pregnancy for future.

ICSI Vs IVF Difference India: How Do Both Work?

Both the procedures are very different from each other both are done for dealing with male and female infertility. These are the procedures which are not really separate procedures to be done but are complimentary to each other. ICSI is either an addition to IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) or IVF can be without it too. 

• IVF is a wider procedure which encompasses ICSI if there is a male infertility factor. IVF specialist suggests after test and failed IVF attempts. It is suggested to them so that the chances of pregnancy can increase. 

• When there is difficulty in releasing semen through ejaculation in men. Due to various reasons such as prostate surgeries, medications among many. IVF being a wider term is done when male or female partner is dealing with medical issues so that the fertilization is done outside the body. 

• The methods for both the procedures are very different. In IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) there are multiple sperms, in a dish are combined with mature eggs. In ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection), only a single sperm is injected into eggs. 

• ICSI is an additional cost that is paired with IVF. IVF itself is a major expense and adding ICSI to it can raise the overall cost. 

• Both the procedures have a high success rate around 40 to 80%.

• IVF is the procedure which is prescribed for ovulation issues and so on whereas ICSI is prescribed for sperm quality, abnormalities in the morphology of sperm and so on. Choose We Care IVF Surrogacy for ICSI treatment India. 

Reasons why ICSI is prescribed 

• Sometimes, eggs have a thick layer around it, which obstructs fertilization. 
• ICSI can help solve this issue of obstruction caused by the thick layer.
• When males have a lower sperm count and in standard IVF.
• Low motility is also a reason for infertility. It remains a major reason for choosing ICSI.
• Issues in attaching sperm to egg for fertilization. 
• Blockage can occur in the reproductive tract in males. 
• For IVF treatments when the sperm has to be fertilized in a lab for this procedure. 
• When sperm has to be used for frozen eggs.
• When morphology of sperm is abnormal it can lead to failure of IVF. 
• When sperm has to be used for Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT). 
• When there is an unexplained infertility.
• When women are over 35 years of age, their eggs generally have a thicker layer. 
• There can be various types of immunity related disorders.  
• Genetic disorders are a reason too why ICSI is prescribed.

What is the normal sperm count in males?

A normal sperm count in males should be nearly 15 million sperm per milliliter(ml), it also depends on the movement and shape of the sperm, this also ensures the count of sperms. 

Low sperm count depends on various factors such as alcohol, stress, lifestyle choices. These choices can affect your sperm count.  

How does morphology of sperm cause infertility? 

If there are abnormalities in morphology of sperms it can also lead to infertility and as a result can affect the natural conception.

Due to this abnormal shape and size of sperm cannot swim and that results in infertility in men. It obstructs sperm to fertilize eggs and makes.

What are different ART treatments for Infertility?

• IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) – Eggs are sperm are fertilized in a laboratory and embryos developed in the process are then transferred for implantation in the uterus.

• ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) – A single sperm is injected to the centre of the mature egg for fertilization.

• GIFT (Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer) – Here sperm and eggs are directly placed into the fallopian tube for fertilization. 

• ZIFT (Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer) – Here the embryos are placed into the fallopian tube rather than uterus. 

• FET (Frozen Embryo Transfer) – Frozen embryos which from previous IVF are used in this procedure and placed in the uterus. 

•  Assisted Hatching – A small cut is made on the outer layer of embryos which helps in assisting implantation. 

Treatment	Average Success Rate (Per Cycle)	Short Description
IVF (In Vitro Fertilization)	30% – 50%	Eggs and sperm are fertilized in a lab.
ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)	40% – 60%	A single sperm is injected into the centre of the mature egg for fertilization.
GIFT (Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer)	30% – 40%	Eggs and sperm are placed directly into the fallopian tube.

How Many Cycles Of ICSI Are Needed?

Multiple cycles of ICSI paired with IVF, are needed for successful pregnancy. The number of cycles highly depends on age and quality of sperm. Multiple cycles are needed in an older age and in younger age you still get pregnant with a comparatively less number of cycles.

One to three cycles too suits some couples and some couples go for three to six cycles and going through multiple cycles gives 90% of success. 

What To Expect During ICSI Treatment?

• Starting with initial consultation, doctors analyze the patient’s medical history, do tests like AMH, hormone tests, semen analysis and ultrasound scan. 

• After the initial consultation, further the next stage is the ovarian stimulation where for stimulating the ovaries, injections are used, ultrasounds are continuously done to observe the follicle development.

• Egg retrieval takes nearly 15 to 30 minutes, here very less amount of anesthesia is given to the patient and eggs are collected for the further procedure. 

• Next ICSI is done for sperm retrieval, a single and healthy sperm is collected for fertilization and fertilized with egg by injecting the sperm directly to the egg. 

• Embryos are developed under observation in a lab. This takes almost around three to five days.

• Then the embryo is transferred to the uterus, it is a painless procedure a thin catheter is used for the transfer. 

• Then medications are prescribed to the patient, and the patient will be kept under progesterone support.  

• Then various pregnancy tests are undertaken for determining if the patient is pregnant or not. 

ICSI Vs IMSI Vs PICSI – What Is The Difference?

All three procedures come from the three specialized ART(Assisted Reproductive Technology). Three of them involve injecting a single egg to the mature egg.

ICSI stands for Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection and IMSI stands for Intracytoplasmic Morphologically Selected Sperm Injection. The basic difference between ICSI and IMSI lies in the process of selecting sperm for fertilization. 

• Where ICSI uses magnification around 200x to 400x, IMSI involves the range of magnification around 6,000x to 10,000x. 
• IMSI helps in providing a more advanced digital image than ICSI. 

PICSI (Physiological Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) is the procedure which is based on the ability of sperm to bind to itself to hyaluronic acid. This process helps in reducing the chances of miscarriages. 

Does ICSI Improve FET Success Rate?

ICSI in frozen embryo transfer plays a crucial role in improving success rates. It is mostly used in FET. ICSI embryo transfer success is realised by the procedure itself, since it involves injecting a single sperm in the mature egg and then embryos are developed and are frozen for future cycles or if planning pregnancy for future. 

The success rate significantly rises when ICSI is paired with IVF and embryos are frozen for future cycles. In this procedure only a single healthy sperm is chosen for fertilization. This helps in choosing the healthy sperm that helps in fertilization. And the embryo produced via ICSI helps you get a successful treatment. 

What is the cost of embryo freezing?

The cost of embryo freezing with ICSI done in previous cycles costs are enlisted here. Plan for ICSI treatment in India. In India you get treatment which is affordable and done with precision. Embryo freezing is a procedure where embryos produced in previous IVF cycles are kept frozen for future pregnancy. 

Embryo Freezing Cost with Success Rate in India (2026)

Component	Average Cost (INR)	Success Rate / Outcome
Embryo Freezing (Procedure)	₹20,000 – ₹50,000	Survival rate: 90–95% (with vitrification)
Embryo Storage (Annual)	₹10,000 – ₹25,000/year	No direct impact
Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET Cycle)	₹40,000 – ₹1,00,000	Pregnancy rate: 30% – 50% per cycle
Blastocyst (Day 5) FET	Included in IVF cost	50% – 60% (<35 years)
FET Success (Age <35)	—	45% – 60%
FET Success (35–40)	—	40% – 50%
FET Success (40+)	—	15% – 30%
High-End Clinics / Optimized Cases	—	Up to 70%+ success

Who Should Go For ICSI? 

• A lower sperm count is a major reason for choosing ICSI. Since the body only produces a lesser number of sperms which causes difficulty in fertilization. So this method is used directly by injecting the sperm into the mature egg. 

• Either the morphology or motility, both can create difficulty and result in the failure of IVF cycle, since any step in the whole IVF procedure will not work right. It can affect the success of the whole cycle.

 And male fertility remains a major concern in the whole procedure. As the sperm and egg are two major components in the whole procedure and if there is any disorder or disruption at this stage, it can disrupt the whole cycle which almost takes a month to complete.

• There is a chance that due to low motility of sperm only a few eggs were fertilized which later does not successfully develop into healthy embryos. 

• If the sperm do not develop into a healthy embryo due to poor or low motility of sperm, then ICSI is the only option left. This solves conditions like low motility, lower number of eggs and so on. 

• If there is any previous injury, blockage which hinders the sperm releasing from penis, or a genetic disorder, and multiple other reasons. This surgical method ICSI is prescribed for getting a successful result in India. 

• When there is a thick layer around the egg which blocks the passage used for fertilization. The injection helps bypass the obstacle. 

Should couples go for ICSI if the male partner does not have infertility?

There is no specific study to prove to go for ICSI without infertility. There is no proof that ICSI can assure 100% results if you go for ICSI when male partner does not have infertility. 

It becomes very difficult to find the best hospital ICSI treatment in India, choosing We Care IVF Surrogacy for specialised care. 

What Are The Different Factors Affecting Male Fertility?

• There are different medical biological factors that affect male fertility. The growth of cells itself depends on multiple factors which helps in determining fertility in men. 

• Male fertility highly depends on the growth of sperm. If sperm grows properly male fertility is not affected by that.

• In recent years, pollution has become a concerning issue, affecting the life of human beings in different ways. It has been affecting public health in many ways. We are consuming toxins everyday.

These toxins are not only affecting immunity but also affecting reproductive health of both male and females. Which has resulted in different disorders. Infertility in male and female partners has become a major issue these days.  

• Lifestyle choices also affect male fertility, it ruins and disrupts male reproductive health in men. For improving male reproductive health all you need to do is to adopt a healthy routine and nutrition. 

• Diet and nutrition is an important factor affecting reproductive health.Taking proper nutrition, and planning for a healthy diet becomes essential for a good overall health.  

• Physical activities are also an important factor which helps in improving male fertility. Lack of physical activities affects the overall health, reproductive health too gets affected by this.

• Consuming substances such as tobacco, nicotine, alcohol and so on, can lead to various severe health issues and reproductive disorders is one of them. 

• Stress these days has itself become a major health issue affecting everyone these days. Around 75% of adults are suffering from stress. This has become a major problem affecting people these days. Male reproductive health has also been affected by stress. 

Factors Affecting Male Infertility

Category	Key Factors	Impact
Medical	Varicocele, infections, hormonal imbalance	Reduces sperm count and affects quality
Lifestyle	Smoking, alcohol, obesity, stress	Affects overall health as well as reproductive health
Environmental	Toxins, heat exposure, pollution	Toxins present in the environment can adversely affect health
Occupational	Chemicals, heavy metals, prolonged sitting	Occupational exposure affects overall health in unexplained ways
Medications	Chemotherapy, steroids, testosterone therapy	High dosage of medications can affect the male partner’s reproductive health
Sexual Issues	Erectile dysfunction, ejaculation problems	Can lead to difficulty in releasing semen

Why Affects The Costs Of ICSI?

• The reputation and success rate of the clinic affects the cost of ICSI. The exceptional difference you see in the packages of different treatments depends on the reputation and success rate. 

• The expenses also depend on the lab quality, what condition it is in, what technologies are used in that lab, and how well it is maintained. 

• Top tier cities usually have highly experienced doctors which also raises the overall expenses.  

• Need for different treatments such as TESA, PGT, FET, also works as an add-ons.
