No....they are doing ICSI so they are only going to use the best sperm and inject them right into the egg.

Re: frozen vs. fresh sperm
I have a friend who works in Andrology...they look at the spermies and see which ones are swimming fastest, strongest and straightest...those are the guys they use...
So, the Michael Phelps theory is not that far off!

Re: frozen vs. fresh sperm
then I'll have to ask my friend what they look for....I'm sure they have something they are looking for.
ICSI is when the inject the sperm directly into the egg....so it doesn't need to have the motility of pushing it's way in.
