IVF cost is understandably one of the first questions patients ask. Unfortunately, advertising in healthcare often promotes artificially low 'headline packages' that leave out essential components like hormone medications, embryo freezing, or blastocyst culture.
A complete IVF cycle comprises four main financial components: clinical consultations & ultrasound monitoring scans, injectable gonadotropin medications (which vary based on ovarian reserve and body weight), the theatre & anaesthesia fee for egg retrieval, and embryology laboratory culture.
Additional costs may arise if specialized interventions are clinically necessary: ICSI for male-factor, vitrification and maintenance cryostorage of surplus embryos, or Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT).
Rather than quoting an arbitrary flat number that may not fit your medical diagnosis, Dr. Dileep's Srishti Fertility Hospital provides an individualized written estimate following your diagnostic evaluation, ensuring absolute financial transparency.
