What is the difference between IVF and ICSI?
In IVF (In Vitro Fertilization), the fertility specialist removes eggs from the ovary and fertilizes them with the partner’s sperm, in the laboratory. The eggs and sperm unite and the resultant embryos (fertilized eggs) are then transferred to the uterus.
ICSI-Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection is a technique by which a single sperm is injected into the egg to aid the fertilisation process to make the embryo (fertilised egg).
There are 2 ways to fertilise the eggs in the laboratory.

However, in certain situations such as low sperm count when normal fertilisation may not occur, ICSI is done to facilitate fertilisation.
