How much does IVF cost?

If you’ve started looking into fertility treatments, you’ve probably asked yourself: how much does IVF cost? It’s a big question, and the answer depends on a range of factors, including your specific needs and the type of treatment most suited to you. At Care Fertility, we’re committed to making IVF costs as clear and transparent as possible. Whether you’re just starting to explore or preparing to begin treatment, understanding the costs involved can help you feel more in control of your journey. 

What does IVF cost at Care Fertility? 

At Care Fertility, we offer several IVF treatment packages, each designed to meet different needs and budgets. Here’s a breakdown: 

• Care Value Package: Priced from £2,995, this package covers essential IVF services, including medication, egg collection, fertilisation, and embryo transfer. 

• Care Classic Package: Priced from £3,695, this package is our most popular treatment pathway and offers comprehensive IVF treatment and personalised care.

Before starting IVF treatment, you will undergo a fertility check. This comprehensive assessment gives us a clear understanding of your fertility and general health, priced at £549. It’s an essential step that allows us to diagnose any issues related to subfertility and create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs. If you’re wondering how much IVF costs overall, this pre-treatment package is the starting point for understanding your journey and what it might involve.

Understanding the Components of IVF Costs 

The cost of IVF typically includes several key stages of treatment: 

• Consultations and scans: Initial consultations and ongoing monitoring either via scans or blood tests are included in most packages. 

• Egg collection and embryo transfer: These procedures form the core of the IVF process. 

• Laboratory work: This includes fertilisation and embryo culture. 

What’s not included in IVF costs? 

While the packages cover the core aspects of IVF, some additional costs may apply depending on your circumstances: 

• Medication costs: Fertility medications are often billed separately and typically range from £900 to £2000 per cycle. 
   

• Egg, sperm, or embryo freezing: If you choose to freeze eggs, sperm, or embryos for future use, there will be additional storage fees. 
   

• Donor eggs or sperm: If you need donor eggs or sperm, these come with separate costs, which we’ll outline clearly if they’re part of your plan. 

These optional elements depend on your specific treatment needs. We’ll discuss all these elements and costs with you in detail. 

What factors affect the cost of IVF? 

Several factors can influence the total cost of your IVF treatment: 

• Age and fertility status: Success rates often decline with age, potentially requiring multiple cycles or higher value of medication. 

• Treatment customisation: More specialised techniques like ICSI or PGT-A may be recommended based on your circumstances. 

• Additional services: Using donor eggs, sperm, or embryo freezing services will increase overall costs. 

Our team will help you understand how these factors apply to your situation and provide a detailed cost breakdown.

Planning how you are going to pay for IVF can feel overwhelming, but understanding your options can help. At Care Fertility, we offer several ways to manage costs: 

• Pay-as-You-Go: Pay for each stage of treatment individually. 

• Finance Options: Spread the cost over manageable payments. We can guide you through the available plans during your consultation.
