Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection or Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI/IMSI)

  What is Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)?

These are procedures used when either the sperm count is very low or there is no sperm in the semen. Couples going through repeated unsuccessful attempts at IVF and severe male fertility issues due to abnormal semen should get an ICSI treatment in Kolkata. It is one of the successful treatments for male fertility. The process is the same as that of IVF, especially when it comes to egg collection and ovarian stimulation.

  What is Intracytoplasmic Morphological Sperm Injection (ICSI)?

IMSI is an addition to the ICSI cycle which helps in identifying suspected variations of the sperm that can be excluded by magnifying it 6000 times. It is a better technique to understand the morphology of sperms that would not have been possible with a standard ICSI.
