The ICSI Treatment Procedure: Step-by-Step
Initial Consultation and Diagnosis
The first step is a comprehensive consultation with our fertility specialists. We assess the medical history of both partners, conduct sperm analysis, and perform other tests to identify the underlying issues contributing to infertility. This helps in determining whether ICSI treatment is the most suitable option.
Ovarian Stimulation
The woman undergoes ovarian stimulation using fertility medications to produce multiple eggs, improving the chances of successful fertilization. We closely monitor the process through ultrasounds and blood tests to ensure the ovaries are responding well to the medication.
Egg Retrieval
Once the eggs are ready, they are retrieved from the ovaries under a mild anesthetic. This is a minimally invasive procedure that ensures a safe and comfortable experience for the patient.
Sperm Collection
A sperm sample is collected from the male partner. If sperm is low or absent, sperm can be retrieved surgically through various techniques like testicular sperm extraction (TESE).
ICSI Procedure
The embryologist selects the healthiest sperm from the sample and injects it directly into an egg using a microneedle. This increases the chances of fertilization and is ideal for patients with severe male infertility factors.
Embryo Culture and Monitoring
The fertilized eggs are cultured in the lab for a few days to develop into embryos. Our team closely monitors the embryos for their quality and progression.
Embryo Transfer
Once the embryos are ready, the best quality embryos are selected for transfer into the woman’s uterus. This is a simple, painless procedure performed under ultrasound guidance.
Pregnancy Test
After the embryo transfer, a pregnancy test is performed two weeks later to check for successful implantation and pregnancy.
ICSI Treatment Cost in Sri Lanka
The cost of ICSI treatment at PFRC ranges from ₹2.5 lakhs to ₹3 lakhs. This affordable pricing ensures that couples from Sri Lanka and beyond can access high-quality fertility care without financial stress.
Techniques Used for ICSI Treatment at PFRC
At Prashanth Fertility Research Centre, we utilize cutting-edge techniques to ensure the success of ICSI treatment in Sri Lanka. Some of the advanced technologies include:
Time-Lapse Embryo Monitoring
Allows continuous observation of embryo development to select the best-quality embryos for transfer.
Laser-Assisted Hatching
Enhances the chances of implantation by thinning the outer shell of the embryo, facilitating better attachment to the uterine lining.
Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT)
Ensures only genetically healthy embryos are selected for transfer, reducing the risk of genetic disorders.
Microsurgical Sperm Retrieval Techniques
Techniques like TESA, PESA, and Micro-TESE are employed to extract sperm directly from the testes or epididymis in cases of azoospermia.n
Cryopreservation
Freezing of surplus embryos, eggs, or sperm for future use, providing couples with multiple opportunities to conceive.
