Hello
Thanks for query .
Your husbands semen analysis has revealed Asthenospermia .

ICSI is advised in a situation when there is no effective pregnancy as a result of sperm abnormality either low count or less motility .

Since you have conceived twice you do not need ICSI to have pregnancy.

The miscarriage that you had twice could be due to hormonal imbalance and needs to be checked and evaluated by Gynecologist once you are pregnant and can be treated with medications to prevent miscarriage.
