ICSI Treatment Cost In India

ICSI with TESA/PESA (Sperm Retrieval Techniques)

PESA (Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration) or TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration) are procedures used to extract sperm directly from the testes or epididymis in men with severe male infertility where sperm are absent in the ejaculate because of blockages or other conditions. ICSI with TESA/PESA at Birla Fertility & IVF costs about ₹42000. 

Pre-Implantation Genetic Testing (PGT)

Before implantation, embryos are screened for genetic abnormalities using the cutting-edge PGT technique. This is usually recommended for couples with a history of genetic disorders, repeated miscarriages or repeated IVF failures. The price can range from ₹40000 to ₹170000 depending on the kind of genetic testing needed. 

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection or ICSI is an advanced procedure, mainly used for male infertility or certain medical conditions that prevent natural conception. It is advised under the following circumstances.

Hereditary Problems:

Couples with a history of genetic disorders may choose to use ICSI to lower the chance of transferring inherited diseases to their offspring.  Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) may occasionally be advised in addition to ICSI to make sure the embryo is free of genetic disorders.

Low Sperm Count (Severe Oligospermia):

Sperm Shape Abnormalities (Morphology Issues):

It may be difficult for sperm to naturally penetrate an egg if they have poor morphology which is defined as an abnormal shape or structure. To improve the success of fertilisation ICSI chooses the best sperm and injects it straight into the egg. 

Ejaculation Problems:

ICSI is helpful for men who suffer from obstructive azoospermia (blockages in the reproductive tract) or retrograde ejaculation (where sperm enters the bladder instead of leaving through the penis). In these situations, sperm is extracted and used for fertilisation using techniques like TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration) or PESA (Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration).

Unsuccessful IUI or IVF:

ICSI is advised for couples who have experienced multiple IVF or IUI cycle failures because it can help increase the chances of successful embryo development.

Several elements influence the final cost of ICSI including:

• Additional Procedures—like freezing embryos or genetic testing before implantation. 
• Clinic Location and Reputation—High-quality fertility clinics may charge more. 
• Number of ICSI cycles needed—Some couples may require more than one try before they are successful. 

The Success rate of ICSI treatment  in India

ICSI can provide high rates of success if done in conjuction with IVF. It has the highest success rate in:

• Women under 35, where chances of pregnancy can go up to 60-70%.
• Cases where male infertility is the primary concern, as ICSI maximizes fertilization potential.

Before starting ICSI treatment, it is important to understand different aspects of the treatment that may affect the overall cost and success. Below are some of the factors to consider.

1. Ovulation-inducing medications: Ovulation-inducing drugs are prescribed to the female partner to control and increase egg production to increase the likelihood of success. This represents the initial expense part of the procedure. 
2. Costs of Sperm Preparation and ICSI Procedure: Washing and preparation of sperm before fertilisation is done to choose the healthiest and most viable sperm for injection. This adds up to the overall cost of the procedure.
3. Embryo Culture & Monitoring Charges: The embryo is meticulously cultivated and observed in a lab environment after fertilisation until it is ready to be transferred into the female reproductive system. The cost of treatment includes these laboratory procedures as a necessary component.
4. Transfer of Blastocysts: Extra handling and monitoring expenses may be incurred if the embryo transfer is performed at the blastocyst stage which is usually on Day 5 because this procedure necessitates specialised care.
5. Genetic Testing for Embryos (PGT): Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) can be used to find any possible genetic abnormalities when genetic screening is advised. If recommended by your fertility specialist this is an optional but extra expense. 
6. The Number of ICSI Cycles Needed: It may take several ICSI cycles for some patients to conceive particularly those with complex fertility issues or advanced maternal age. This can have a substantial effect on the total cost of treatment.
