Mechanical Stimulation Improve the Fertilization in ICSI Cycle

Most fertilization failures after ICSI are caused by failure of oocyte activation defects. But, to date, there is no effective method to overcome this obstacle. To investigate the effect of mechanical stimulation on fertilization failures, investigators plan to recruit women undergoing ICSI treatment cycles. The retrieved sibling oocytes from the patients were randomly divided into two groups. The control group conducted the standard ICSI procedure, while the experimental group conducted the modified ICSI procedure.Consequently, the fertilization rate, 2PN (two pronuclei) rate, 1PN rate, oocyte degradation rate,and exploitable embryos on D3 were recorded to evaluate ICSI cycle outcomes.
