Understanding ICSI (Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection)
ICSI is a specialised form of IVF used when there are few sperm, low motility, or difficulty with natural fertilisation. Under a high-power microscope, an embryologist injects one sperm directly into each mature egg.
Dr. Priyanka Balhara and her embryology team bring years of experience to ICSI, giving couples with male-factor infertility the best chance of creating healthy embryos.
