IMSI - Intracytoplasmic Morphologically-Selected Sperm Injection Costa Del Sol

IMSI (Intracytoplasmic Morphologically selected Sperm Injection), involves exploration of the sperm using a high resolution microscope reaching a magnification of up to 8000 times. Exploring sperm at this magnification shows defects in sperm heads, shapes and sizes and any sperm abnormalities associated with high DNA fragmentation that cannot be seen in conventional microscopes used for ICSI, only the best morphological sperms will be micro-injected into the eggs, which would lead to higher pregnancy success.This method is particularly helpful for patients with repeated failed IVF-attempts, to those whose sperm count is low, or has a large number of abnormal or immobile sperms.

The initial consultation  takes approximately 2 hours and we would speak about donors, go through how the treatment flows and you would be seen by Dr. Benito for a basic scan and trial embryo transfer (passing an empty catheter through the cervix).  They are on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 15:30.

This is suggested when the ovaries have failed due to early menopause, chemotherapy / radiotherapy, or for women who have not responded to stimulation treatment themselves. Donated eggs come from anonymous donors who must be 30 years of age or less and have undergone various medical tests, medical history and assessments prior to donating.
