What is IVF and ICSI? A Complete Guide by Eraya Fertility

When you dream about having a family of your own, infertility is something that might seem an insurmountable obstacle. At Eraya Fertility, we want you to understand that you are not alone-with the modern medical advances such as IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) and ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) there are thousands of couples in the world who have welcomed healthy babies.

So what are these treatments and how do they vary? We will simplify and clarify it to make you feel good about what you can do.

What Is IVF?

IVF is an abbreviation used to refer to In Vitro Fertilization as literally meaning fertilization in glass. In this procedure, mature eggs are carefully removed out of ovaries of a woman and are put in a special lab dish with sperms. The fertilization process occurs within this regulated environment, which is closely similar to how the same would be done in the fallopian tubes.

After fertilization and embryo formation, a healthy embryo/embryos are deposited back into the uterus where they have an opportunity to implant and develop.

When do doctors prescribe IVF?

It is recommended that IVF should be used where applicable:

  • Unexplained infertility

  • Ovulatory problems

  • Impeded fallopian tubes

  • Couples which have not conceived using other treatments

What is ICSI?

ICSI Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection is a more cylindrical approach that is commonly employed when the male has trouble with fertility, including low sperm count, slow sperm motility, or history of failed fertilization.

In ICSI, the egg is injected with a single healthy sperm instead of leaving the sperm to independently fuse with the egg. This is the very action that helps to avoid all the possible natural obstacles and contributes greatly to the possibility of fertilization in male-factor infertile couples.

IVF vs. ICSI – How Are They Different?

Although IVF and ICSI are both assisted reproductive technologies (ART) that in vitro fertilize eggs, the major distinction is in the manner fertilization occurs:

  • IVF enables sperm to naturally fertilize the egg in a lab environment.
  • ICSI is where a single sperm is carefully chosen and injected into the egg.

A fertility doctor will prescribe the best method to take based on the cause of infertility. In certain cases, they employ a combination of both methods in order to maximize success.
