How much does second-generation IVF need to invest?
The second generation IVF is a method to help couples who cannot conceive naturally to conceive successfully through assisted reproductive technology, namely, in vitro fertilization embryo transfer (IVF-ET). However, this technology involves many links and the participation of medical institutions, so a certain amount of money needs to be invested. The following will elaborate on the capital investment of second-generation IVF from four aspects: hospital costs, drug costs, treatment costs and other costs.
Hospital expenses
First of all, a professional reproductive hospital should be selected for second-generation IVF. In China, there are some well-known reproductive hospitals, such as the Reproductive Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital and the Reproductive Medicine Center of Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. These hospitals have professional teams and modern equipment, so they are relatively expensive. A complete IVF cycle treatment, including gynaecological examination, hormone examination, ultrasound examination, ovulation drug costs, oocyte retrieval, receptor preparation, embryo culture and embryo transfer, costs about 200000 yuan in hospital.
Drug expenses
In addition to hospital costs, drug costs are also part of the investment required for second-generation IVF. During the treatment of second-generation IVF, a series of ovulation promoting drugs are needed to promote ovarian development and ovulation, as well as progesterone and other auxiliary drugs to support implantation and embryo development. The cost of these drugs will vary according to individual conditions, and is estimated to be about 50000 yuan.
Treatment expenses
Treatment costs refer to some auxiliary treatment costs in second-generation IVF technology. For example, some couples may need to carry out chromosome screening of embryos to reduce the risk of embryos carrying abnormal genes; Some couples may need to select representative embryos through PGD or PGS technology for transplantation. These additional treatment costs are about 20000 yuan.
other expenses
In addition to the above three aspects of costs, there are other costs that may be incurred to consider. For example, hospitalization expenses, operation expenses, supplementary nutrition expenses, etc. These costs vary from person to person, depending on the specific circumstances of the individual. However, on the whole, the other costs of second-generation IVF are usually around 10000 yuan.
To sum up, the funds required for second-generation IVF mainly include hospital costs, drug costs, treatment costs and other costs. According to the current market price, about 280000 yuan needs to be invested. However, this number is only for reference, and the actual cost will vary depending on individual needs and treatment plans. Therefore, before deciding to carry out the second generation of IVF, both husband and wife need to fully understand the relevant costs and make adequate economic preparations.
