How much is IVF?

I’m trying to remain positive that I won’t need it but I’m also very realistic and would like to be prepared. Is there a way of finding out how much IVF will cost where you are. I don’t qualify for it for free through the NHS x

What criteria makes you think you don't qualify for it through NHS? I've heard it's approx £5k per cycle

The private website fee sheets are incredibly misleading which is cruel when trying to budget as it isn’t transparent. We had a straightforward ICSI collection and fresh transfer and it was £14k in 2022. This included all blood work, scans, storage, drugs, consultations. Basically all the small print extra!! You can buy drugs through Asda who are not for profit on ivf drugs and ask your gp to do bloods on the nhs Its expensive. Clinics offer payment plans and there are schemes to help. So you can pay for multiple transfers at once (this works out cost effective if your first transfer fails) We took the risk and paid for one round and luckily it worked.

We spent about £10k in total but that was with donor sperm. Our meds alone were £1500

@Dipti my partner has children already so we won’t qualify

Thank you for all your replies, I’m really hoping we don’t need it as we definitely couldn’t afford anything like that. I was thinking it would be about 4k 😞 x
