How much will IVF cost in 2020?
IVF is a medical means to help infertile couples achieve fertility through in vitro fertilization technology. Its high success rate makes more and more couples choose IVF technology to fulfill their reproductive dreams. However, the cost of IVF has always been a concern. This article will elaborate on the cost of IVF in 2020 from four aspects.
Hospital selection and cost difference
The cost of IVF varies from hospital to hospital. Generally speaking, the cost of IVF in general hospitals or professional reproductive centers in large cities is relatively high. For example, the cost of IVF in Beijing's top three hospitals is about 150000 yuan to 300000 yuan. In hospitals in first tier cities such as Shanghai and Guangzhou, the cost of IVF may be higher, between 200000 yuan and 400000 yuan. However, IVF in hospitals in second or third tier cities is relatively low, about 100000 to 200000 yuan.
However, the high cost of IVF does not necessarily mean a higher success rate. Although some advanced hospitals have more advanced equipment and technology, not all couples need such services. Therefore, when choosing a hospital, couples need to consider their own conditions and the strength of the hospital to determine the most suitable choice for them.
Auxiliary technology and cost increase
In addition to the basic cost of IVF, some couples may need additional assistive technology to improve the pregnancy success rate. For example, in the process of in vitro fertilization, embryo screening, embryo cryopreservation, and gene detection before embryo implantation may be required. These assistive technologies will increase the cost of IVF.
In addition, for some older couples or couples with other infertility symptoms, multiple IVF attempts may be required, which increases the cost. It should be noted that there are regional differences between the use of assistive technology and the cost of IVF. Therefore, couples should consult their doctors before IVF and make choices according to their personal circumstances.
Drug costs and personal differences
In the process of IVF, some ovulation promoting drugs need to be used to increase ovulation and egg quality. The cost of these drugs plays an important role in IVF. Generally speaking, the drug cost is between 5000 yuan and 10000 yuan, but the cost may vary according to the physique and efficacy of different individuals.
In addition, in the process of IVF, some auxiliary tests such as blood tests and ultrasonic tests are also required, and these costs will vary according to individual conditions. Therefore, before IVF, couples need to know the details of the costs and be ready.
Expense summary
To sum up, when choosing a hospital, couples need to consider their own situation and the strength of the hospital, and weigh the relationship between cost and success rate. The use of assistive technology and drug costs will also increase the total cost of IVF. Therefore, couples who want to welcome the arrival of a new life physically and mentally should know about the related costs of IVF in advance and make reasonable financial planning to ensure their economic ability and psychological preparation.
In general, the cost of IVF in 2020 will be between 100000 yuan and 400000 yuan, but the specific cost will be affected by many factors, including hospital selection, auxiliary technology use, drug costs, etc. Therefore, before IVF, couples should consult their doctors to understand the specific costs and make preparations according to their own conditions.
