IMSI Treatment In Noida
Intracytoplasmic morphologically selected sperm injection, also known as IMSI, is another procedure used during IVF. Doctors perform this procedure using a high-magnification digital imaging microscope while injecting into the egg. It enables the doctors to differentiate between the structure of the sperm and exclude the suspected variations.
Procedure Used In IMSI Treatment
Semen Sample Collection and Preparation
A sample of semen (fresh or frozen) is collected and prepared by the embryologist. For preparation, all the impurities are removed from the sample by treating it with a specific solution.
Sperm Selection
For injection, the embryologist will now select a sperm by examining them under a microscope. The microscope will allow the embryologist to look at the sperm through a magnification of more than 6000X. This ensures that the sperm selected is of the best quality and health.
Egg Selection
Just like ICSI, the eggs are collected from the female partner and washed to remove the unwanted particles. The eggs are then examined under a microscope and healthy ones are selected for fertilization with the sperm.
Sperm Injection
The selected sperm(s) is then put in a fine glass needle and then injected into the chosen egg(s) for fertilization. This fertilized egg(s) is cultured in a sterile culture petri dish in an incubator.
Embryo Transfer
Once the embryo(s) have been cultured and are ready to be transferred, the female partner will be called to the clinic and will have the embryo(s) inserted into her uterus. After approximately 14 days (2 weeks), a pregnancy test will be done to check if pregnancy has been achieved or not.
Insight & Advice About IMSI Treatment
Intracytoplasmic Morphologically Selected Sperm Injection is an acronym for IMSI IVF. In IVF treatments, IMSI involves the insertion of sperm into the egg to enhance the fertilization process. High-power magnification allows the experts to see the sperm in detail, allowing them to find the sperm with the highest chance of being fertile for implantation into the eggs to give birth to a healthy baby.
In IMSI’s laboratory, experts use magnifying microscopes to evaluate normal sperms and distinguish between those with abnormalities from those without. Consequently, preventing the injection of abnormal sperms into the egg may reduce the chances of fertilization, reducing the success rate of IMSI treatment.
Pros and Cons of IMSI
According to reports, the success rate of IMSI is 66%, while the success rate of normal sperm injection is 33%. In addition to IMSI’s advantages, there are some disadvantages as well:
- This technique doubles the pregnancy rate lowering the abortion rate by 60%.
- In this case, normal sperm is selected, reducing the chances of miscarriage.
- It helps to determine fertility hence enhancing fertility and pregnancy rates.
IMSI has a lot of disadvantages, which include:
- It is a time taking and expensive process.
- This leads to multiple pregnancies when compared to ICSI.
