If you or your partner have been struggling with male factor infertility, you're not alone. At Boston IVF, we offer ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection), a cutting-edge fertility treatment that provides hope for couples experiencing challenges with sperm quality or low sperm counts. Whether you're searching for IVF providers, or a fertility office near me, Boston IVF is here to guide you through the process.
What is ICSI?
ICSI is a specialized procedure used in in vitro fertilization (IVF) that involves injecting a single sperm directly into an egg to facilitate fertilization. This treatment is ideal for individuals who have low sperm counts, poor sperm motility, or other fertility challenges that prevent the natural fertilization process. By combining ICSI with IVF, Boston IVF provides a higher chance of conception, especially when traditional insemination methods are unsuccessful.
The ICSI Procedure Explained
At Boston IVF, the ICSI procedure is performed by our expert embryologists who are dedicated to providing top-tier care. The process starts with a standard IVF cycle. During this cycle, eggs are retrieved from the female partner, and sperm is either collected from the male partner’s ejaculate or extracted from the testicles using advanced techniques like testicular sperm extraction (TESE) or epididymal sperm aspiration (PESA).
Once the sperm is prepared, a highly skilled embryologist uses a micromanipulator to inject the sperm directly into the egg. This process overcomes many male infertility barriers, such as low sperm count or sperm with poor motility, and significantly increases the likelihood of fertilization.
After fertilization occurs, the embryo is carefully monitored before being transferred into the uterus. This step usually takes place 3-5 days after fertilization at one of our state-of-the-art Boston IVF laboratory locations, ensuring the best conditions for embryo development.
