INVICSI: does routine ICSI improve cumulative live birth?
Randomized controlled trial · 824 women
Library updated:
What was investigated and what was found?
In first-cycle patients without severe male factor, cumulative live birth was 43.2% with ICSI and 47.3% with conventional IVF. No significant ICSI advantage was established.
Interpreting the findings
Results apply to the enrolled population and tested protocols; they are not a personal success prediction.
How can you prepare for a consultation?
Bring semen analyses, any DNA-fragmentation or urology/andrology reports, and previous fertilization results. Findings from both partners should guide discussion of IVF or ICSI planning.
