Cost and Expense Analysis of IVF
IVF refers to in vitro fertilization technology to allow couples who cannot conceive naturally to conceive children. Although this technology has brought hope, it also means a large amount of economic expenditure. The cost of IVF involves many aspects, which will be described in detail from hospital selection, medication cost, treatment cost and post monitoring.
1. Hospital selection
First of all, it is very important to choose a formal IVF hospital. In Beijing, famous hospitals include Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Beijing Maternity Hospital, etc. These hospitals have strong medical strength and rich experience.
Secondly, the charging standards of different hospitals are different. Generally speaking, the cost of IVF operation in large hospitals in first tier cities is higher, while some smaller local hospitals are relatively cheaper. Therefore, when choosing a hospital, it is necessary to consider its own economic situation and personal needs comprehensively.
In addition to the cost of the hospital itself, it is also necessary to consider the cost of transportation, accommodation, etc. Choosing a hospital close to home or with convenient transportation can reduce this cost.
2. Drug expenses
IVF needs a series of drug treatments. First of all, the woman needs to be treated with ovulation promoting drugs, which are expensive. The second is ovarian acupuncture after ovulation, which requires injection of ovulation promoting drugs, which are also expensive. Furthermore, it is necessary to purchase frozen embryos for embryo transfer, which is an important step in the whole process. Different drug brands, specifications and prices are also different, which needs to be selected according to the actual situation and doctor's suggestions.
3. Treatment expenses
The treatment cost of IVF includes the doctor's diagnosis fee, operation fee, operating room use fee and other related expenses. These costs vary in different hospitals and cities. Generally speaking, the treatment cost of large hospitals is relatively high, while that of small hospitals is relatively low. Moreover, if multiple IVF operations are required, the cost will increase cumulatively.
In addition, the treatment of IVF may also cause unexpected complications, requiring additional treatment and costs. Therefore, when selecting hospitals, it is necessary to ensure that hospitals can provide complete medical security and after-sales services.
4. Post monitoring
After the success of IVF, pregnancy monitoring should be carried out later. These monitoring include blood examination, ultrasound examination, etc. to ensure the normal progress of pregnancy. According to personal circumstances, these monitoring may last for several months to a year, and the cost may become a great burden.
In general, the cost of IVF is relatively high, involving hospital selection, medication costs, treatment costs, post monitoring and other aspects. Therefore, when choosing IVF babies, we need to consider our own economic strength and family situation, and fully communicate and understand with doctors. I hope this article will be helpful to understand the cost of IVF.
Summary
The costs of IVF success include hospital selection, medication costs, treatment costs and later monitoring costs. First of all, it is very important to choose a regular hospital. The cost standards of different hospitals are different. Secondly, the cost of medication is a cost that cannot be ignored, and it is necessary to choose the appropriate drugs according to the doctor's suggestions.
