What Is IMSI?

IMSI (Intracytoplasmic Morphologically Selected Sperm Injection) is an advanced fertility treatment in which sperm are examined under very high magnification to select the healthiest ones for injection into the egg.


IMSI increases fertilization success and reduces the risk of miscarriage. It is particularly recommended for couples with abnormal sperm morphology, repeated IVF failures, or recurrent pregnancy loss.

How IMSI Works

During IMSI, sperm are examined under extremely high magnification to identify the healthiest and most morphologically normal sperm.

The selected sperm is then directly injected into the egg, similar to ICSI, ensuring better fertilization and increasing the chances of a successful pregnancy, especially in couples who faced previous fertilization failures.
