Summary
This study will compare two advanced sperm selection techniques—PICSI and the ZyMot device—used during ICSI (a type of IVF). The goal is to see which method leads to more pregnancies. 300 couples will take part, with women aged 20-39. The results could help fertility clinics choose the best approach for their patients.
