Hello and welcome to HCM,
For any assisted fertilization technique to be successful, adequate ova/ eggs should be available to allow the appropriate technique (icsi in your case).
Ovigyn d is a HCG containing preparation.
It is used to induce ovulation for a an ample supply of eggs/ ova.
Folic acid is needed in pregnancy to prevent neural tube defects in fetus.
Ovigyn does not affect the subsequant growth and development of the zygote.
It only helps in induction of ovulation.

Thanks and take care
