Conventional medicine plays an important role and most of the time is
the first treatment for a couple who for what ever reason cam not
conceive after 1 year of unprotected sexual intercourse or can not carry
the pregnancy to full term. Artificial insemination is defined as
placing sperm of the male partner by using medical advance technological
instrument into the female reproductive tract through a method other
than sexual intercourse. It is used when the male partner is diagnosed
with low sperm count and motility or when a woman is diagnosed with
ovulation or cervical mucus problems In this article, we will discuss
intrasytoplastic sperm injection (ICSI) : definition, effects, side
effects and risk of conventional treatment.
1. Definition
Intracytoplastic
sperm injection (ICSI) is defined as a fertility medical technique
which uses a small needle to inject a sperm into the center of the egg.
2. What is intracytoplastic sperm injection (ICSI)?
It
is only suggested to the infertile couple, if the male partner have low
quality sperm including sperm count, motility, shape and inability of
sperm in egg penetration or blockage in his reproductive tract. Under
the microscope, the reproductive specialist withdraws a sperm and guides
it to an mature egg by using a medical instrument called pipette, then
injects the sperm into the egg. From there, the fertilized egg is
allowed to develop in a laboratory for one to five days, before placing
in the female partner uterus. The chance of fertility of
intracytoplastic sperm injection (ICSI) is as high as 50%
4. Risk
Although the ICSI has a success rate 50% to 80% for eggs fertilizing, it also increases the risk of
poor eggs or low quality of sperm.
a) Birth defect is around 1.5% to 3%
b) Miscarriage
c) Chromosome abnormality
