 Topic: IVF with IMSI
Posted: 03 August 2014 at 7:57pm |
Hi Ladies, I have had two IVF w isci cycles (male factor infertility), one a BFN and one a BFP ending in MC both with nothing left to freeze. We are moving forward with a third cycle early next year and are thinking about trying ivf with imsi has anyone gone down this path after previous failed cycles? I would love to hear any feed back

Hey Jacq, your story is identical to mine. I haven't tried IMSI, I'm not even sure if our clinic does it! Would be keen to hear how you get on though!

Epic- I don't know if your in New Zealand but if so it is only at the Auckland clinic, it's not funded and a wee bit more expensive but from the research I've done it gives you an extra chance. Some researchers had labeled it super isci. I've got a follow up appt this month where we are going to make the next plan I feel like it's my only chance.

Hi there, I'm just curious as to how this procedure is different to icsi? I wish Wellington would do it. Goodluck to you x

Poppy - from what I understand, imsi is icsi, with the added step of sperm being selected with ultra-high magnification first to make sure they look completely normal. So helps if sperm morphology is an issue (rather than just quantity or motility which icsi helps with).

Thanks mushrooms, that explains it. My boyfriend has antisperm antibodies but unsure if the sperm are abnormal or not, so might
look into that
