ICSI Male Fertility Treatment - Dr. Sudha Tandon's Fertility Center

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) technique has been greatest boon for males who have a very low sperm count to have their own biological child. In this procedure a single morphologically normal sperm is picked up in fine micro needle and injected manually into the oocyte under a highly advance microscope with a micromanipulator. We have a full time Embryologist – Mr. Sachin S Bawle who has an experience of over a decade and can perform all ART procedures. He has recently got trained for Embryo Biopsy from IVF laboratory in Spain. The steps involved in the ICSI cycle are Ovarian Stimulation: The woman is given hormonal injections for stimulating the ovaries to produce more number of oocytes/eggs. The injections are timed according to her period dates. Her response to the injections is judged by Trans-vaginal sonography. When they reach the mature stage, the eggs are retrieved by aspirating the fluid from the follicles on day of egg retrieval. Egg retrieval is done under general anesthesia and sonography guidane. Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI): On a special microscope with a micromanipulator, a single sperm is picked up in fine micro needle and injected manually into the oocyte. At our center to increase the fertilisation rate and improve the embryo quality our embryologist uses sperm sorter to separate the normal sperms with lesser DFI from the rest of the sperms. Sperms separated from the sperm sorter are then selected on basis of their morphology as per Kruger criteria. In this way we perform a double selection protocol and use the best sperm for ICSI treatment in Mumbai.
