ICSI
Injection of a selected sperm into an egg for selected male-factor or previous fertilisation difficulties.
Fertility care begins by understanding both partners and selecting only relevant investigations. Each option is explained honestly, with a personalised plan and ongoing emotional support.
Discuss the reason for ICSI
Bring semen reports and any earlier fertility laboratory records. Ask why ICSI is being considered in your plan and how the laboratory steps will be explained.

Understanding ICSI
What does ICSI care involve?
Injection of a selected sperm into an egg for selected male-factor or previous fertilisation difficulties. Recommendations are made after reviewing symptoms, medical history, investigations and personal priorities.
When should I arrange a consultation?
Arrange a consultation when symptoms are persistent, worsening, affecting daily life or causing concern. Urgent or severe symptoms require prompt assessment through an appropriate emergency service.
Which ICSI costs and arrangements should I clarify?
Ask whether ICSI is included in the IVF estimate and who will discuss laboratory results. If sperm retrieval is also planned, confirm how the teams and appointment timings will be coordinated.
