Cost of IVF
IVF is a kind of assisted reproduction technology. The fertilized egg is artificially cultured in vitro, and then the fertilized egg is implanted into the female uterus to achieve pregnancy and pregnancy. This technology has been widely used in modern medicine. However, IVF needs a certain amount of money to support its implementation.
Medical examination expenses
Before IVF, a series of medical examinations are required to ensure that the patient's physical condition is suitable for this technology. These examinations usually include blood and urine examination, ultrasonic examination, tubal patency examination, hysteroscopy, etc. The cost of medical examination varies with hospitals and regions.
Taking a famous Grade III Grade A hospital in Beijing as an example, a medical examination before an IVF baby needs about 5000 yuan to 10000 yuan, and the specific costs vary depending on the number of examination items. These examination costs are part of the cost of IVF, but are usually not included in the medical expenses of IVF.
IVF operation cost
IVF surgery is the process of implanting the fertilized egg into the uterus of a woman. The cost of surgery varies with hospitals and surgical methods. Taking a large general hospital in Shanghai as an example, the cost of IVF surgery is about 30000 yuan to 60000 yuan.
The high cost of IVF surgery is mainly because this technology belongs to high-tech medical surgery and requires experienced doctors and advanced equipment. In addition, some special drugs need to be used during the operation to promote the development of the apical follicle and increase the success rate of pregnancy. These drugs will also increase costs.
Drug expenses
In the process of IVF, some special drugs need to be used to promote female ovulation and the development of fertilized eggs. These drugs mainly include ovulation promoting drugs, luteinizing hormone and anticoagulants. Drug costs vary depending on the type of drug used and the length of treatment.
Taking a famous hospital in Guangzhou as an example, the drug cost for IVF is about 20000 yuan to 50000 yuan. The demand for these drugs is large, and some drugs need to be produced by special production processes, so the drug costs are high.
Auxiliary treatment expenses
In the process of IVF, adjuvant treatment may be needed to improve the success rate of pregnancy. These adjuvant treatments include artificial insemination, egg retrieval and sperm preparation. The cost varies with hospitals and treatment methods.
Taking a general hospital in Chengdu as an example, the cost of artificial insemination is about 1000 yuan to 2000 yuan, the cost of egg retrieval is about 3000 yuan to 5000 yuan, and the cost of sperm preparation is about 2000 yuan to 4000 yuan. The cost of adjuvant treatment is part of the cost of IVF, but it is not included in the medical cost of IVF.
Summary
The cost of IVF mainly includes medical examination cost, operation cost, drug cost and auxiliary treatment cost. These costs vary from hospital to hospital and from region to region. To sum up, it costs about 80000 yuan to 150000 yuan for a test tube baby. When choosing IVF, it is suggested that patients should choose their own hospitals and doctors according to their own economic strength and medical needs, taking into account the cost and medical quality.
