How much money does IVF need to prepare?
IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which can help couples who cannot conceive naturally due to fertility barriers to achieve their reproductive aspirations. However, IVF needs some financial support, including medical expenses, drug expenses and other possible expenses. The following is a detailed discussion of the financial preparation required for IVF from four aspects.
medical expense
The medical cost of IVF is one of the most important expenses. This includes gynaecological examination, assisted reproductive technology operations and all surgery related costs. Medical expenses vary according to different hospitals, countries and doctors. In China, the medical cost of an IVF is between 100000 yuan and 300000 yuan.
First, couples need to carry out necessary gynecological examinations to determine whether it is suitable to try IVF. The examination fee includes endometrial thickness, ovarian ovulation function and other items. Secondly, the operation cost of IVF is also an important part, including egg collection, fertilization of sperm and eggs, and embryo culture. Anesthesia, operation costs and bed fees required during the operation will also increase the total cost.
In addition, the success rate of IVF is also related to the cost. Different hospitals, different doctors and different treatment schemes may affect the success rate of IVF. Therefore, it is very important to choose hospitals and experts with good reputation and advanced technology for treatment, although the cost may be higher.
Drug expenses
In the process of IVF, a large number of drugs need to be used, including ovulation promoting drugs, drugs to regulate ovarian function, and drugs to promote embryo implantation. The choice and use time of these drugs depend on individual circumstances, so the cost will vary.
Ovulation promoting drugs are the key to the success of IVF. They can stimulate ovarian development, make it develop multiple follicles in the same cycle, and increase the chance of pregnancy. The drugs regulating ovarian function are used to inhibit specific hormone secretion, help control ovarian cycle and improve the success rate of IVF. The embryo implantation drug can help the fertilized egg to be reborn in the uterus.
Drug costs vary according to dosage, type and duration of use. Roughly speaking, drug costs may account for 30% to 50% of the total IVF costs. Therefore, couples should take full account of drug expenditure when preparing funds.
Other expenses
In addition to medical expenses and drug costs, IVF may also be accompanied by other expenses. These expenses include but are not limited to examination expenses, post operation recovery expenses and follow-up monitoring expenses.
In the process of IVF, multiple gynecological examinations may be required to ensure the smooth progress of the whole process. These examinations include ultrasonic examination, blood examination, etc. In addition, a recovery period may be required after surgery, during which special care and rest may be required. After successful embryo transfer, corresponding pregnancy monitoring is also required.
These additional expenditures will be determined according to the special circumstances of individuals, so they should be reserved when preparing funds.
Summary
To sum up, the funds to be prepared for IVF mainly include medical expenses, drug expenses and other expenses. Medical expenses are the most important expenses, and the success rate is related to the expenses. Drug costs account for a large proportion, which needs to be determined according to personal circumstances. Other expenses include examination costs, post operation recovery costs and follow-up monitoring costs. In general, the fund preparation for IVF needs to be properly planned to ensure its smooth progress.
