How much does the third generation IVF cost?
Test tube baby technology is a modern technology, which can help couples who cannot conceive naturally realize their reproductive dreams. With the progress of science and technology, IVF technology is also developing. The birth of the third generation of IVF technology has brought hope to more couples. However, what is the cost of the third generation IVF? We will introduce it from different aspects.
Medical examination expenses
Before the third generation of IVF, hospitals usually carry out a series of medical examinations. These examinations include the woman's ovarian function examination, endometrial examination, and the man's sperm quality examination. The cost of these examinations varies from hospital to hospital and from project to project, generally between 1000-5000 yuan. Through these examinations, doctors can understand the reproductive status of the couple and prepare for the next treatment plan.
In addition, the woman may need to conduct menstrual cycle monitoring, ovarian ovulation promotion program, etc. to ensure that eggs are obtained at the right time. These additional monitoring and operations will add a certain amount of cost, which is about 500-2000 yuan.
The cost of medical examination is increasing, mainly because of the improvement of medical technology and the update of hospital equipment. Therefore, patients need to be financially prepared before the third generation IVF technology.
Technical expenses of IVF
The main costs of the third generation of IVF include in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer. First, the production of eggs is promoted by super ovulation, and then the eggs are combined with sperm in the laboratory to obtain fertilized eggs. This process is called in vitro fertilization, and the cost is generally between 15000 and 20000 yuan. In the process of in vitro fertilization, doctors can also choose auxiliary technologies, such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), to improve the success rate of pregnancy, which will add additional costs.
Next, the doctor will select high-quality fertilized eggs and place them into the woman's uterus through embryo transfer to achieve pregnancy. The cost of embryo transfer is about 15-2000 yuan. If additional operations such as freezing embryos are required, the cost may be higher.
In addition to the basic cost of IVF technology, if couples choose to carry out chromosome screening, gene testing and other auxiliary technologies, they also need to pay additional fees. The specific fees vary from hospital to project.
Drug expenses
The third generation IVF technology requires a series of drugs to promote ovarian ovulation and embryo implantation. These drugs include ovulation promoting drugs, progesterone, etc. The type and dosage of drugs are determined according to the specific conditions of patients, and the cost is between 50 million yuan and 10000 yuan. Drug costs account for a certain proportion in the process of IVF, which can not be ignored.
Follow up expenses
In addition to the above mentioned costs, the third generation IVF needs to consider some follow-up costs. For example, if the patient's first attempt fails, he or she may need to make multiple attempts, and each attempt requires payment of a corresponding fee. In addition, if the embryo is frozen, a certain fee will be paid every year. In addition, the examination during and after pregnancy, maternal nutrition costs, etc. also need to be taken into account.
To sum up, the costs of the third generation IVF include medical examination costs, IVF technology costs, drug costs and follow-up costs. These costs vary according to different hospitals and projects, but can be roughly between 30000 and 100000 yuan. Before deciding to carry out the third generation IVF technology, couples should comprehensively consider their economic situation, communicate with the hospital about the relevant costs, and make full preparations.
Summary
The third generation of IVF is a modern technology that can realize the birth dream of couples who cannot conceive naturally, but its corresponding cost cannot be ignored. When selecting the third generation IVF technology, patients need to consider the medical examination costs, IVF technology costs, drug costs and follow-up costs. The cost varies according to the hospital and the project, which is roughly between 30000 yuan and 100000 yuan. Patients should make financial preparations before making decisions, and fully communicate with the hospital to ensure that the cost will not affect the treatment.
