Answer 1

The ART that is suitable in the above situation is Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is a fertility treatment that helps in fertilising an egg. It can be used as part of an in vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatment to help you and your spouse to conceive a child.

ICSI only requires one sperm, which is injected directly into the egg. The fertilised egg (embryo) is then transferred to your uterus (womb)


During ICSI the sperm doesn't have to travel to the egg or penetrate the outer layers of the egg.

#This means that it can help couples where the man's sperm:

#can't get to the egg at allcan get to the egg, but for some reason can't fertilise it
