How much does IVF need to spend to bear?
Test tube baby is a method of combining sperm and egg in vitro and cultivating them into embryos through assisted reproduction technology, and then implanting the embryos into women's uterus to finally achieve fertility. However, IVF is not a cheap option, it requires a certain cost. The costs of IVF will be described in detail from four aspects below.
1. Inspection and diagnosis costs
Before the IVF process, a series of examinations and diagnoses must be carried out to determine the cause of infertility and determine the appropriate countermeasures for IVF. These examinations and diagnoses may include reproductive system examination, hormone level examination, semen analysis and tubal patency test. In some large public hospitals in China, the cost of these examinations is generally between 2000 and 8000 yuan. If you choose to check in a private hospital, the cost may be higher.
After determining that IVF is suitable for IVF, it is also necessary to evaluate and guide IVF and other assisted reproductive technologies. These assessment and guidance fees vary from hospital to hospital, generally between 1000-3000 yuan.
To sum up, the cost of examination and diagnosis is about 3000-11000 yuan, which is a necessary prerequisite for IVF.
2. Assisted reproductive technology expenses
The core of IVF is assisted reproductive technology, the most common of which are in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer. In the process of in vitro fertilization, the egg is taken out, combined with sperm, and cultured in a culture dish. In most hospitals in China, the cost of IVF is about 10000-30000 yuan, including the process of egg retrieval, culture, embryo testing and embryo implantation.
If it is necessary to use or donor's eggs or sperm for IVF, it is also necessary to pay the related costs. The cost of the donor may be between 10000-20000 yuan, while that of the sperm donor may be between 1000-5000 yuan.
To sum up, the cost of assisted reproductive technology is about 11000-55000 yuan, depending on the hospital and the choice of assisted reproductive technology required.
3. Drug expenses
In the process of IVF, it may be necessary to use a variety of drugs to promote the development of eggs, control ovulation and increase the thickness of endometrium. The cost of these drugs will vary according to the treatment plan and individual differences.
Generally speaking, the drug cost is between 3000-20000 yuan, including ovulation promoting drugs, drugs to increase endometrial thickness, and oxytocin. Drug cost is an important part of IVF process.
4. Follow up pregnancy monitoring and prenatal expenses
Once the pregnancy is successful, pregnancy monitoring and prenatal examination are also required. These expenses include prenatal examination, pregnancy blood and B ultrasound examination, pregnancy nutrition and vaccination. The specific amount of prenatal expenses varies according to the hospital, region and individual differences, and is about 5000-20000 yuan.
To sum up, the total cost of IVF is about 20000-106000 yuan. The specific cost depends on the level and service level of the hospital, individual conditions and the choice of assisted reproductive technology needed. To achieve IVF, families need to have a corresponding economic foundation and make comprehensive economic preparations.
Summary
It costs a certain amount of money to carry out IVF. From the four aspects of inspection and diagnosis costs, assisted reproductive technology costs, drug costs and follow-up pregnancy monitoring and prenatal costs, the total cost of IVF is about 20000-106000 yuan. These costs depend on the level and service level of the hospital, individual conditions and the choice of assisted reproductive technology needed. In order to achieve IVF, families need to have a corresponding economic foundation and make comprehensive economic preparations.
