Defects with ICSI treatment

[Sahithya]

Hello ladies

Hope you all doing good

My questions is that will children born with longterm health issues and genetic and developmental defects with ICSI treatment? And I want to know the overall costs for icsi treatment in uk including drugs...which fertility centre has highest success rates and with low cost of treatment? Can u please suggest me?

No, ICSI should not cause birth defects....they wouldnt do it otherwise. As for clinic prices, it really depends on where you live and which clinic you chose to go to. You would be best to email a few that are in your area and ask for their prices. It can vary greatly.xx

I read this on internet: . It must be noted that the process of injecting the sperm into the egg can result in damage to the egg which means that approximately 90% of the eggs injected survive.

So I have never tried iCsi by fear it could damage my egg which is already poor quality most likely.

Hiya.

I haven’t heard anything about long term health issues.

The total for our first ICSI treatment (including a few tests that the GP couldn’t do due to the pandemic) came to £7600.
