What items does the cost of test tube babies in Russia include?
Test tube baby is an assisted reproductive technology, which is applicable to some couples who cannot conceive naturally. Russia, as one of the world famous test tube baby countries, has attracted many couples who come to seek help. However, the cost of IVF may be the focus of couples' attention. This article will introduce the cost items of IVF in Russia from four aspects.
Hospital appointment and consultation fees
Before choosing a suitable IVF hospital, couples usually need to make an appointment and consult. These fees usually include online or face-to-face consultation fees, medical records and diagnosis fees. For example, the Fram Family Hospital in Moscow is a prestigious IVF hospital in Russia. They provide online consulting services around the world, with consulting fees between 500 and 1000 dollars.
In addition, some hospitals also provide personalized counseling services to develop treatment plans according to the specific conditions of the couple. This may require additional costs, depending on the hospital policy and the needs of the couple. In general, hospital appointment and consultation fees usually account for a small part of IVF fees.
Hormone treatment and drug costs
Hormone treatment and drugs during IVF are also an important part of the cost. These drugs include ovulation promoting drugs, anticoagulants, antibiotics, etc. Couples usually need to buy these drugs in hospitals or from specific pharmacies, and the cost varies according to different institutions and dosage.
For example, Moscow's Pushechliaohe Hospital provides IVF services, and they estimate that the cost of hormone therapy and drugs is about 1500-2500 dollars. This is because the type and dosage of hormone therapy and drugs vary depending on the patient's situation.
In addition, gynecological examination and blood examination are also necessary during IVF, and these costs are usually included in hormone treatment and drug costs.
In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer costs
In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer is one of the most important steps in the process of IVF, and also an important part of the cost. In vitro fertilization includes egg collection and sperm sampling, combining eggs and sperm in the laboratory, and cultivating embryos.
Embryo transfer is to transfer the cultured embryo into the mother's uterus. If the embryo is successfully implanted, it may be successful in pregnancy. These two steps usually need to be carried out in the hospital, and the costs include surgery costs, laboratory costs and medical service costs.
For example, Lanyao Hospital in St. Petersburg provides IVF services. Their IVF and embryo transfer costs are about US $5000-7000. These costs may vary depending on the hospital's location, equipment and quality of service.
Late pregnancy and childbirth costs
When the IVF baby is successfully conceived, the couples also need to pay for the later pregnancy and childbirth costs. This includes prenatal examination, pregnancy monitoring, medical services and medical equipment costs during childbirth.
For example, Riaz Hospital in Moscow is a hospital that provides IVF services. They estimate that the cost of late pregnancy and childbirth is about US $3000-5000. These costs may vary depending on the hospital's facilities, medical technology and service quality.
Summary
In general, the costs of IVF in Russia include hospital appointment and consultation costs, hormone treatment and drug costs, in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer costs, and later pregnancy and delivery costs. These costs vary depending on the hospital's geographical location, equipment and service quality. Before deciding to carry out Russian IVF, couples should consult with the hospital in detail to understand the specific items and amount of costs so as to make reasonable decisions.
