What is ICSI?
Despite many years of marriage, some couples have difficulty conceiving a child. Fortunately, today, there are several assisted reproductive methods, such as ICSI. If you have had difficulty starting a family, ICSI treatment may be considered based on your medical history. Discover this technique, known to be one of the most effective in assisted conception. Tunisia Destination Santé before, during and after your ICSI stay in Tunisia.
ICSI, also called Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection, is a cutting-edge technique used in in-vitro fertilization (IVF). Although the cycle process is similar to that of IVF, the method of fertilization in the laboratory is different.
What are the advantages of ICSI compared to classic IVF in the in-vitro fertilization process?
After ovarian stimulation, oocyte puncture and sperm collection, the oocytes are then placed in a culture medium to be fertilized. Unlike classic in-vitro fertilization (IVF) where sperm are simply released into the culture medium alongside the oocytes and selected naturally, in the case of ICSI, a carefully chosen sperm is directly introduced into the oocyte. Thanks to prior sperm selection and forced fertilization by their penetration into the oocyte, the chances of success increase during an IVF cycle with ICSI. Several studies have shown that ICSI offers higher success rates than traditional IVF. In addition, embryo transfer usually takes place 2 to 5 days after oocyte retrieval.

Frequently Asked Questions
The success of ICSI depends on several factors, including the quality of the sperm and eggs, the experience of the fertility laboratory, the woman’s age, and the underlying cause of infertility.
Studies show a slight increase in birth defects in children conceived by ICSI, although these risks remain relatively low and are often related to parental infertility itself.
Embryologists use strict criteria to select sperm, favoring those with the best morphology and motility, sometimes using advanced techniques such as selection by high-resolution microscopy.
The main difference is the fertilization method: in ICSI, a single sperm is injected directly into the egg, while in classic IVF, the eggs and sperm are placed together to allow natural fertilization.
IMSI (Intracytoplasmic Morphologically Selected Sperm Injection) uses more detailed microscopy to select sperm. It is often chosen when morphological abnormalities of the sperm are suspected or after ICSI failures.
Yes, ICSI can be used with donor eggs or sperm, particularly when the quality of the gametes requires assistance to maximize the chances of fertilization.
Stress, anxiety and sometimes depression are common psychological effects in couples undergoing ICSI, which is why they often require professional psychological support during and after treatment.
For men with non-obstructive azoospermia, ICSI can be a viable option if sperm can be retrieved by testicular biopsy. However, the success rate depends on the quantity and quality of the sperm retrieved.
ICSI can speed up the treatment process by reducing the time needed to achieve successful fertilization, but each case is unique and the schedule may vary depending on ovarian stimulation cycles and embryo transfers.
Recent advances include the use of artificial intelligence to improve the selection of sperm and embryos, as well as the integration of new cryopreservation techniques to preserve the quality of gametes and embryos.
