What is ICSI?

ICSI is one of the most important and modern treatments for infertility and delayed conception, used especially when sperm are weak or few. A healthy sperm is selected and injected directly into the egg under the microscope, increasing the chances of fertilisation with precision. Dr. Asma Al-Momani, consultant in obstetrics, gynecology and infertility, has long experience in this field and has helped hundreds of couples achieve their dream of having a child through ICSI, with high success rates thanks to international treatment protocols and advanced medical equipment.

The difference between ICSI and IVF

Although many people confuse the two terms, there is an important difference between IVF and ICSI. In IVF, sperm are placed with the eggs in the laboratory so fertilisation happens naturally, while in ICSI the sperm is injected directly into the egg. This makes ICSI an effective option when sperm are severely weak or when previous IVF attempts have failed.

The steps of ICSI

  1. Stimulating the ovaries to produce more eggs.
  2. Collecting the eggs at a precisely chosen time.
  3. Taking a sperm sample and examining it under the microscope.
  4. Injecting the sperm into the egg, done by an embryologist.
  5. Monitoring fertilisation and embryo growth in the laboratory.
  6. Transferring the healthy embryos to the mother's uterus and following the pregnancy.

The procedure takes place in a precise laboratory environment, supervised by a specialised team, to ensure the highest success rates.

Success rates and emotional support

Success rates for ICSI are very good, especially when the treatment plan tailored to each case is followed. Emotional support for the couple during treatment is also one of the key factors in improving the chances of success. That is why Dr. Asma Al-Momani accompanies her patients step by step, from the first tests to pregnancy.
