What is the cost of three generations of IVF?
IVF is one of the methods to successfully conceive couples who cannot conceive naturally through assisted reproductive technology. In the field of IVF technology, the third-generation IVF is the latest development, which is considered to be a more accurate technology with higher success rate. So, what is the cost of three generations of IVF? How to calculate and bear these costs? The following will be elaborated from several aspects.
medical expense
The medical cost of the third generation IVF is one of the biggest expenses in the whole process. First of all, preliminary examinations, including semen examinations for men and gynecological examinations for women, may cost between several thousand yuan and ten thousand yuan. Next is the cost of hormone therapy for women, which is used to promote the development of follicles and improve ovarian responsiveness. The cost at this stage is usually about 10000 yuan. Then there is the operation cost of taking eggs and sperm. The cost of this stage may be between 5000 yuan and 15000 yuan. Finally, the cost of embryo transfer, including embryo culture, embryo transfer and frozen embryo, ranges from 30000 to 50000. In general, the medical expenses may be between 50000 and 100000 yuan.
It is worth noting that prices may vary in different hospitals and regions. Some first-class hospitals are usually expensive, while private hospitals are relatively inexpensive.
Auxiliary treatment expenses
In addition to medical expenses, it is also necessary to consider auxiliary treatment expenses, including auxiliary pregnant drugs and auxiliary treatment technologies. Auxiliary pregnancy drugs include ovulation promoting drugs, pregnancy aids and auxiliary pregnancy drugs, and the cost is usually between 10000 and 20000 yuan. In addition, if embryo gene testing or other auxiliary technologies are needed, these costs may further increase.
Round trip transportation expenses
The third-generation IVF babies can not be successfully operated in one operation, and they usually need multiple visits, including examination, treatment and surgery. Therefore, round-trip transportation cost is also a part to be considered. If you live near the hospital, the transportation cost is relatively low, but if you need to travel long distances, the transportation cost will increase. In addition, accommodation costs may also need to be considered, which will increase the overall cost.
Psychological and follow-up expenses
In the process of IVF, the psychological endurance of couples is an important issue. Therefore, the cost of psychological consultation and treatment also needs to be taken into consideration. In addition, if complications occur during the IVF process or further treatment is required later, the follow-up medical costs also need to be borne.
To sum up, the expenses of the third generation IVF include medical expenses, auxiliary treatment expenses, round-trip transportation expenses, psychological and follow-up expenses, etc. The specific cost will vary according to different hospitals, regions and personal conditions. When considering the third generation of IVF, couples need to conduct a comprehensive assessment of their own economic situation, consult with the hospital in detail, understand all the cost details, and develop a reasonable burden plan.
To sum up, the third generation IVF needs to consider not only medical costs, but also auxiliary treatment costs, round-trip transportation costs, psychological and follow-up costs, etc. Before making the burden plan, the couple should comprehensively assess their own economic situation and consult with the hospital in detail to ensure that they can reasonably bear these costs.
