After this, the embryo is transferred into the uterus of the female.

Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)

Following are SSR techniques:

Percutaneous Epididymal Sperm Aspiration (PESA)

Testicular Sperm Aspiration (TESA)

Testicular Sperm Extraction (TESE)

Frozen Embryo Replacement Cycle (FERC)

In case, two or more good character embryos are composed during the cycle, but they are not transferred, then they can be frozen for future use. They are frozen at immensely low temperature of around -180°C, so that they do not get degrade with time.
