What is the difference between IVF and ICSI?

Standard IVF lets sperm and eggs fertilize together in the lab dish, while ICSI involves injecting a single sperm directly into each mature egg. ICSI is often chosen for male-factor infertility, prior fertilization failure, low sperm counts, frozen or surgically retrieved sperm, or when PGT is planned. Which route makes sense depends on diagnosis, age, sperm parameters, ovarian reserve, budget, and how quickly you want the highest chance per cycle.
