IVF Cost

IVF Cost

Infertility is no longer a concern in the twenty-first century, thanks to advances in medical technology. Aspiring couples can now achieve their goal of having a healthy baby with ease with the assistance of In-Vitro Fertilisation (IVF). In Vitro Fertilisation is an assisted reproduction technology that employs a number of intricate methods to assist in fertility and avoid any common issues that may arise with child conception. With this type of assistance, the doctor seeks to extract mature eggs from healthy ovaries and fertilise them in a lab with healthy sperm. The obtained fertilised egg is then placed in the uterus. The entire IVF procedure might take up to three weeks and can have varying costs across the country. Here is a detailed account of the costs for better understanding.

What is the Cost of IVF Treatment in India?

The cost for each individual IVF treatment might differ based on some factors. 

In India, each IVF cycle costs between 1,00,000 to 2,50,000 INR on average. For example, the cost of IVF in Hyderabad is between 1,00,000 and 2,00,000. The cost of IVF treatment varies from hospital to hospital. The cost and the number of cycles per IVF are directly connected to one another since the price rises as the number of treatment cycles rises.

The following items are included in the baseline IVF cost in India:

• Cost for each consultation throughout the IVF cycle
• Ultrasound tests, as well as follicular monitoring
• Sample Washing 
• Egg Pick-up or Retrieval 
• Fertilisation and Embryo Development 
• Embryo Transfer
• Anaesthetics
• Lab charges
• Room or OT Charges

Why do people choose IVF?

IVF has a lot of advantages to its name, which contributed to its enormous popularity-

• IVF helps a person to become a parent, whether they are single parents or infertile couples.
• IVF is a tried-and-true technique to improve the chances of conceiving.
• IVF was also the first form of assisted reproduction that addressed and offered remedies for problems with male infertility.

What are the Factors Influencing the Cost of IVF Treatment?

The cost of IVF treatment varies depending on the patient's IVF treatment type, the number of approaches chosen by couples trying for children, the quality of equipment, the need for donors, and the number of procedures chosen. Here are the influencing factors in detail. 

• Female age & Number of IVF cycles

Women under the age of 35 who undergo IVF successfully become pregnant but women above 35 years of age may need additional IVF rounds to get pregnant. As a result, age has a direct impact on the cost one should take into account while selecting IVF therapy.

• Surrogacy

The total amount to get the surrogate mother might be between INR 50,000 and INR 150,000 rupees, which adds to the IVF cycle cost. Moreover, the costs associated with the foetus should be considered if you are opting for surrogacy.

• Embryo Donor

Some couples choose to freeze the egg in order to conceive later on. The price range for transferring a frozen foetus is between INR 20,000 and INR 30,000 for one year.

• ICSI

Male infertility is often treated by Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection to get better results. The sperm is injected directly into the egg during this procedure to maximise the likelihood of successful fertilisation. For your IVF procedure with ICSI, you would need to pay an extra amount.

Keep in mind that, despite the fact that IVF treatment costs in India vary from city to city, you should never select a fertility clinic based solely on price. Always consult a fertility doctor with maximum experience and higher success rates.
