Doing ICSI, also known as ICSI, is considered another IVF procedure that can help solve the problem of male and female infertility very well. It is also regarded as a way for infertile people to have the highest chance of successfully conceiving through the ICSI method. Some people may not know what ICSI is? After doing ICSI, can I really see results? In the article below, we will provide knowledge and answer questions about in vitro fertilization by ICSI method for you to clear your doubts.
What is ICSI?
Doing ICSI or ICSI is a technique to perform external fertilization of the body. It is used by doctors to treat people with infertility through IVF procedures. ICSI is the most successful method. But the technique of doing ICSI will be different from the IVF method as follows.
ICSI or Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection will select 1 egg and 1 sperm that will be the strongest and most complete for mixing. The doctor will use a needle to pierce and inject the sperm directly into the egg in order to fertilize it and create an embryo. Then, the doctor will implant the embryo back into the uterine cavity to make the woman pregnant.
In vitro fertilization with this ICSI method will help solve problems in the male side rather than the female side. Because some men may have a low or unhealthy sperm count, or there may be abnormalities in the ejaculation of semen.
But doing IVF with IVF method is a treatment for patients who are unable to conceive naturally. The doctor will select the most fertile eggs from the woman and the strongest sperm from the male. The selected sperm will naturally penetrate the egg. This method is similar to natural sex.
And when the eggs and sperm have been fertilized outside, they become an embryo. Then, the doctor will implant the embryo back into the uterus so that the woman can continue to have a pregnancy.
Does doing ICSI really work?
ICSI or ICSI is considered the most effective IVF method. The chance of success is therefore high when compared to other methods used to solve infertility problems. The chances of doing ICSI will be successful up to 50-80%, which is considered very high.
But most people tend to think that if the doctor injects the sperm directly into the egg, why not see 100% results. In some people, the egg cells may not be strong enough to become an embryo, so the chance of ICSI is not yet 100%. However, ICSI is considered to have a higher chance than IVF.
As for the matter of whether the pregnancy will be successful or not, it depends on the physical condition of the woman. If the woman is very old or has uterine dystrophy, the chances of successfully getting pregnant are less. For people aged 35 and over, the chances of getting pregnant through ICSI are 30-40%, and for people aged 40 and over, the chances of getting pregnant are even less at 10-20%, but it depends on the embryo and the physical condition of the mother as well.
What kind of problems should ICSI do?
Doing ICSI can help solve problems in women and men who have infertility problems. The spouse has decided to do in vitro fertilization with the ICSI method, including:
– Women with endometrial hyperplasia, blocked or damaged fallopian tubes, abnormal ovulation, or deteriorating uterine conditions.
– Women who have already undergone sterilization such as tying or blocking the fallopian tubes.
– Women over 35 years old, which may affect the quality and quantity of eggs.
– Men with problems with sperm quantity, quality, and shape, especially those with poor sperm motility.
– Men who have already undergone sterilization by tying the spermatic cord.
– Couples who have tried other methods of infertility problems such as counting the days of ovulation, IVF, and IUI methods, but were unsuccessful.
Does ICSI hurt? Are there any side effects?
In doing ICSI, there may be some steps that are slightly painful, such as the injection under the skin to stimulate the egg or the process of collecting eggs through the vagina. Although anesthesia is used, the patient may experience slight pain in the lower abdomen or pelvic floor after egg collection. These symptoms usually disappear after 1-2 days.
Side effects that can be found after ICSI include cramps in the lower abdomen, breast tenderness, body aches, nausea, and vomiting. However, some individuals may not experience any symptoms. If there is abnormal vaginal bleeding, it is important to see a doctor immediately.
Is it expensive to do ICSI?
The price of IVF is quite costly, but it is worth it for individuals with infertility who want to have children. The starting price of doing ICSI can range from 200,000 to 500,000 baht, depending on the location. BeyondIVF is currently offering a promotional price for doing ICSI, starting at 246,000 baht (0% installments for up to 10 months).
Conclusion: Where is the best place to do ICSI?
IVF using the ICSI method is considered to see the best results and have the highest chance of getting pregnant. However, it has a relatively high price. The chances of success with ICSI range from 40-50%, with younger individuals having a greater chance of success than older individuals.
The ICSI procedure is highly sensitive, and consulting a medical professional can help reduce the risk of complications. BeyondIVF is available to answer questions and provide information about IVF with the ICSI method. For more information, contact BeyondIVF via phone, Line, WhatsApp, or WeChat.]
