What is the cost of gay IVF?
IVF technology provides a valuable opportunity for couples who cannot conceive naturally to realize their dreams of childbearing. With more and more same-sex marriage legalization, same-sex couples also began to consider having their own children through IVF. So, what is the cost of gay IVF? This article will elaborate on this issue from several angles.
Hospital expenses
To carry out IVF, you need to choose a regular reproductive hospital, and its operation costs and drug costs are the main part of the cost of IVF. Taking China as an example, the hospital cost of a test tube baby is about 100000 to 300000 yuan, and the specific cost will vary from hospital to hospital. For example, a well-known reproductive hospital in Beijing costs 150000 to 200000 yuan, while a reproductive hospital in Shanghai costs 200000 to 250000 yuan. In addition, hospital fees also include appointment registration fees, pre operation examination fees and post operation re examination fees.
It should be noted that due to different policies and technologies, IVF costs vary greatly in different countries and regions. In the United States, the average cost of gay IVF is about US $30000 to US $30000, while in Australia it is about Australian $20000 to Australian $20000.
Cost of assisted reproductive technology
IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology. In addition to hospital costs, it also includes other costs of assisted reproductive technology. For example, ultrasound examination and blood examination are required during egg retrieval, and the cost of these examinations should also be included. In addition, women who are older or have certain fertility disorders may need ovulation promoting drug treatment, and the cost of these drugs will also increase the total cost of IVF.
In addition, there are some assisted reproductive technologies, such as embryonic gene screening (PGS) and genetic testing before embryo transfer (PGD), which will also increase the cost of IVF. The cost of assisted reproductive technology varies from hospital to hospital and from person to person.
other expenses
In the process of IVF, there will be some other costs to consider. For example, women need to purchase ovulation promoting drugs, drugs and health care products that need to be prepared during embryo transfer in advance, and these costs will also be added to the total cost of IVF. If additional services such as genetic testing are selected, the cost will further increase. At the same time, IVF babies may need several attempts to succeed, which will also increase the total cost.
Summary
The expenses for gay IVF include hospital expenses, assisted reproductive technology expenses and other expenses. Hospital expenses are the main part of IVF expenses, which vary according to different hospitals and regions. The cost of assisted reproductive technology involves ultrasound examination, ovulation promoting drugs and gene testing, which varies according to individual conditions and the technology selected by the hospital. Other expenses include the cost of purchasing drugs, health care products and repeated attempts. Therefore, when choosing IVF, gay couples should not only consider the cost, but also the qualification and technical level of the hospital, as well as their own physical condition and psychological preparation.
