ICSI Treatment in Siliguri - Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection
We understand the emotional journey that one has to endure for fertility treatments at Newlife Fertility Centre. An exclusive form of IVF treatment in Siliguri, ICSI is one of the most effective solutions that helps couples fulfil their dream of becoming parents. This treatment is designed especially for male infertility.

What is ICSI?
A specialized microsurgical process, ICSI breaks through the hurdles of natural fertilisation. A single viable sperm is selected and directly inserted into an egg's cytoplasm, enhancing the likelihood of successful embryo development.
It is often used when:
- The sperm count is extremely low
- Sperm motility (movement) is poor
- There is abnormal sperm morphology
- Previous IVF cycles have failed to achieve fertilization
- Sperm is retrieved surgically through TESA/TESE
Why Choose ICSI Over Conventional IVF?
According to the conventional process of IVF, ICSI uses the natural method. Recommended for severe male infertility, ICSI is a more controlled technique. This method gives hope while its conventional counterpart might fail.
Benefits of ICSI:
Higher fertilization rates in cases of male infertility
Can be done with surgically retrieved sperm (TESA/TESE)
Suitable even with very few motile sperm
Helps couples with past IVF failures
Improves outcomes for patients with unexplained infertility
The ICSI Procedure at New Life Fertility Centr
A carefully planned ICSI process is followed by the infertility specialist in Siliguri at our advanced modular IVF lab, which ensures maximum success rates:
Ovulation Induction
Administered to women to produce multiple eggs, fertility drugs are administered. Regular ultrasounds and blood tests are conducted to closely monitor progress.
Egg Retrieval
Done with the help of ultrasound, the mature eggs are collected by a fine needle through a quick procedure.
Sperm Collection / Retrieval
Mostly through ejaculation, the sperm are collected. In special cases, TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration) or TESE (Testicular Sperm Extraction) is used.
Microinjection of Sperm
Assisted by the high-powered microscope and micromanipulator, a single sperm is injected into the egg directly by a fine glass needle.
Embryo Culture
In a highly-controlled setting, the culture of the embryo (fertilised egg) is done for 3-5 days, which is monitored for quality checks.
Embryo Transfer
The best quality sperm is then transferred to the woman’s womb. This is a painless and minor procedure.
Pregnancy Test
Pregnancy is then confirmed through a blood test done after two weeks.

ICSI Success Rate - What Can You Expect?
The state-of-the-art laboratory of Newlife Fertility Centre, along with compassionate care and expert embryologists, helps couples achieve a high ICSI success rate. Although the success of the procedure depends on the quality of the egg, age of the parent, and other factors, mostly in male infertility issues, it has proven to be successful.
- Women under 35: 60-75% fertilization rate
- With surgically retrieved sperm (TESA/TESE): 55-70% success
- For previous IVF failure: Improved outcomes with ICSI
Who Needs ICSI?
ICSI is recommended for couples facing:
- Severe male infertility (poor motility, low sperm count, or morphology)
- Obstructive azoospermia (no sperm in semen)
- Failed fertilization in previous IVF cycles
- Antisperm antibodies
- Unexplained infertility
Where control in higher fertilization is required, ICSI is used for surrogacy, egg donation, and preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) cycles.

Frequantly Asked Questions
Is ICSI painful?
No. The woman does not feel any pain during the procedure as it is done under anesthesia or sedation. For the male partner, sperm is collected and injected outside the body.
Do the chances of twins or triplets increase with ICSI?
Depending on the number of embryos transferred, there can be multiple pregnancy risks. Single embryo transfer is recommended for a safe pregnancy.
How is ICSI different from IVF?
IVF enables the sperm to fertilize the egg naturally. However, ICSI involves injecting sperm directly into the uterus.
Is ICSI safe for the baby?
Yes. Studies show babies born through ICSI are as healthy as those conceived naturally or through IVF.
What if I have no sperm in my semen?
We can retrieve sperm through TESA or TESE, which can be used for ICSI.
