What goes into the total
Costs can stack in unexpected ways.
A clinic’s base fee usually does not include everything. Here are the common categories that affect the total out-of-pocket cost.
Clinic procedure fees
The base cost quoted by a clinic often covers monitoring, egg retrieval, fertilization, and embryo transfer.
Medications
Fertility medications can add thousands of dollars and vary widely depending on protocol and pharmacy.
Testing and diagnostics
Bloodwork, genetic screening, semen analysis, and other tests may be billed separately.
Storage and future cycles
Embryo or egg storage fees, thaw cycles, and additional transfers can extend the timeline and budget.
