ICSI Treatment in Hyderabad

Starting or growing your family is a deeply cherished dream. If you’re facing challenges in conceiving, especially due to male factor infertility, Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) at our fertility centre in Hyderabad offers an advanced path to parenthood, filled with hope and supported by expertise.

We understand that fertility treatments can feel overwhelming. Our promise is to explain ICSI in simple, clear terms, helping you feel informed, comfortable, and confident every step of the way.

What is ICSI Treatment?

ICSI is a highly specialized technique used in our advanced laboratory as part of an IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) cycle. In traditional IVF, many sperm are placed with an egg in a dish, hoping one will fertilize the egg on its own. With ICSI, our experienced embryologist carefully selects the best single sperm and, using a very fine, delicate needle, gently injects it directly into the center of a mature egg.

The ICSI Treatment Process

We believe in empowering you with clear information. We’ll support you throughout your ICSI journey. Here’s a simple step-by-step look at what you can expect:

1. Your First Consultation & Understanding Your Needs: Your journey begins with a warm and friendly meeting with our fertility specialist. We’ll discuss your medical history, listen to your concerns, answer all your questions, and may suggest some simple initial tests for both partners. This helps us create a personalized plan just for you.
2. Getting Ready: Ovarian Stimulation: For the female partner, this involves taking gentle hormone medications (often as small, easy-to-use injections) for a short period. This encourages your ovaries to produce multiple eggs in a cycle, rather than the usual one, giving more opportunities for a successful outcome. We’ll monitor your progress closely and comfortably with ultrasound scans and blood tests.
3. Egg Collection: Once your eggs are mature, they are collected in a minor, comfortable procedure performed under light sedation or anesthesia, so you won’t feel any pain. Using ultrasound guidance, a fine needle is used to retrieve the eggs. You’ll be able to rest and return home the same day.
4. Sperm Collection & Preparation: On the same day as the egg collection, the male partner provides a semen sample. If there are any difficulties or if sperm needs to be collected surgically (for example, if there’s no sperm in the ejaculate), our team has specialized, gentle methods (TESA, PESA and micro TESE) to help. Our lab experts then carefully prepare the sample to select the healthiest and most active sperm for ICSI.
5. The ICSI Procedure: Precision in Our Lab: This is the special step where ICSI happens. In our state-of-the-art laboratory, our highly skilled embryologists use powerful microscopes (called micro-manipulator) and precision tools. They will select a single, healthy sperm and gently inject it directly into each mature egg.
6. Embryo Development: Nurturing New Beginnings: The fertilized eggs, now called embryos, are placed in special incubators that provide the perfect environment for them to grow and develop, mimicking the mother’s womb. Our embryology team monitors them carefully for 3 to 5 days.
7. Embryo Transfer: A Hopeful Step: Once the embryos have developed well, the best one or two are chosen for transfer. This is a simple, usually painless procedure, much like a pap smear. A thin, soft tube (catheter) is used to gently place the selected embryo(s) into the woman’s uterus.
8. The Two-Week Wait & Pregnancy Test: After the embryo transfer, there’s a waiting period of about two weeks before a pregnancy test (usually a blood test) can confirm if the treatment has been successful. We know this can be an anxious time, and our compassionate team is here to offer support and guidance.

Benefits of ICSI Treatment

ICSI offers significant advantages and hope for many couples, especially in cases of:

• Male Infertility: It’s highly effective for various male infertility factors, such as:
  • Low sperm count
  • Poor sperm movement (motility)
  • Unusual sperm shape (morphology)
  • Difficulty for sperm to penetrate the egg
  • When sperm needs to be surgically retrieved from the testes (e.g., TESA/PESA).
• Previous IVF Fertilization Issues: If previous standard IVF cycles resulted in few or no fertilized eggs, ICSI can improve outcomes.
• Unexplained Infertility: In some instances, ICSI may be recommended even when the exact cause of infertility isn’t clear, particularly if fertilization is suspected to be an issue.
• Using Frozen Sperm: If frozen sperm is being used, ICSI can help ensure fertilization, especially if the quality is variable.
• Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT): ICSI is often used with PGT to ensure accurate genetic testing of embryos by preventing extra sperm from attaching to the egg.

ICSI Treatment Success Rate in Hyderabad

The success of ICSI, like any fertility treatment, depends on various individual factors, most importantly the woman’s age (as egg quality tends to decline with age), the specific cause of infertility, and overall health.

In Hyderabad, ICSI has shown encouraging success.The likelihood of achieving a successful pregnancy and live birth with ICSI varies by age; for example, for women under 35, FERTY9 has consistent 60% success rates  per cycle.

Our experienced team uses the latest technology and personalized approaches to maximize your chances. During your consultation, we will discuss your individual likelihood of success openly and honestly, based on your unique situation.
