Welcome to ivfcost.net. This site was born out of my husband and I being told that we have “unexplained” infertility after 10 years of trying! With finances being tight, and me being 43 and hence not eligible for IVF on the NHS, we were unable to just select the most convenient IVF clinic and pay the price. So we decided to look across the world to see where the best place was that offered good IVF success rates and low IVF cost!

What a job! If you have been trying then you’ve probably struggled as much as we have! So I decided that as I gather information I will share it with others, like yourself.

The first thing I did was try to get an overview of the IVF cost across the globe. The results of this can be found here.

After this I found the contact details for as many IVF clinics as I could and I am in the process of sending them an email (which can be seen here) requesting the IVF cost, IVF success rate and information on the IVF process. I am posting the responses as I get them on this site and have tagged them with the country name. To date I have responses on:

IVF Cost in Argentina

IVF Cost in Australia

IVF Cost in Austria

IVF Cost in Belgium

IVF Cost in Brazil

IVF Cost in Bulgaria

IVF Cost in Costa Rica

IVF Cost in Taiwan

IVF Cost in Thailand

IVF Cost in Turkey

IVF Cost in the Ukraine

IVF Cost in the USA

IVF Cost in the U.K.

IVF Cost in United Arab Emirates

I have also tagged the responses that I found particularly useful and put them in the tag My IVF Shortlist.

When we started this journey I must admit that it was all very overwhelming. We knew very little about what our options were and what to expect. We scoured the book stores for something that would help us get to grips with the jargon and understand what our test results really meant. The one book that stands out above the others is What to Do When You Can’t Get Pregnant: The Complete Guide to All the Technologies for Couples Facing Fertility Problems by Daniel A Potter and Jennifer S Hanin. This has been our bible to knowing what is going on, what questions to ask and how to make good decisions – we can highly recommend it.

I hope that the information on this site is useful to you. If you have experience with any of the clinics please do leave a comment so that others can benefit from it too.

Basically I was recommended a clinic in Barcelona because a friend of mine got pregnant there. She told me to ask for Dr. Olivares (I think he was the medical director) so I got in touch with them but, unfortunately, they told me that he was no longer working there. That was 2 months ago.
Since my friend insists on seeking for that doctor I started searching his name on the net and, luckily, I found out that he was about to open a new clinic, called BarcelonaIVF, with some staff from the first clinic I contacted. I managed to get their email (in their web site www.barcelonaivf.com) and started to ask questions and questions. They’re really fast solving concerns and doubts, you can expect to get an answer on the same day almost regardless of how many emails you send. At least this is what my contact, Romana, has done in fluent English. Moreover, despite not being cheap (egg donation costs 8950€), I like the way they manage the payments. One single payment for the treatment that should be done before your donor is assigned, but it includes egg donor selection tests, medication for both, the donor and me, any procedure that they think can help to achieve a better outcome -including IMSI, a technique that it only available in a handful of clinics- and the freezing of the surplus embryos you may have. That’s great because it allows you to focus really only on the treatment.
They also have two other things that sound really good. One is the “shared donor program” in which the donor (a “dedicated” donor, not a patient, is sharing her eggs) is shared amongst couples. They guarantee you’re going to get three good oocytes to ensure a good fresh embryo transfer. If the obtained embryos are not of goof quality, they reassign you to a new donor at no cost. It’s much cheaper than a normal egg donation (2950€) and it also includes everything. The only drawback is that if you choose this way, there won’t be any physical matching between donors and recipients (they say it’d take too long to match two or three couples with a single donor).
The other product I like is the “shared risk program”. I read about it in some US clinics websites. Basically you pay for three cycles before starting the first one and if you get pregnant (well not just getting pregnant, they talk about “ongoing pregnancy”, that means that the pregnancy goes beyond 13 weeks) they’ll charge you the whole amount (that would be 27.000€ in egg donation), this would be the patient’s risk. But if they don’t manage to get you pregnant after 3 attempts, then they refund you 75% of the money you’ve paid (that would be the clinic’s risk) I don’t know if I understood and explained it well… Otherwise please let me know and I will try to get more information. Or maybe you have experience with this kind of program…. However, I think, this would allow you to get some money back in case the treatment doesn’t work and to move on to any further treatments or even consider adoption. Well, to be honest, this won’t be my option because I can’t afford the initial payment, but if I were rich, I’d definitely do it

Hello,
My name is Orel Naor
Im coming from Israel.

These days I am finishing my project to treat and help 150 couples to have babies.
As you know, in the modern age like today, all over the world people suffer from difficulties in conceiving and deliverings babies. 
The reasons for these difficulties iclude bad and weak sperm, inability to fertilization, abortion, miscarriages, premature infants and many more problems.

I have more than 38% effectiveness in treating patients who have not received treatment such as in vitro fertilisation, and couples who had been trying to become pregnant in any natural way for more then 2 years!
and more then 65% in treating patients who have been already in the procces of ivf for one year or more.
My goal is to make this possibility available to everyone who needs it.
with fast results as about 2-6 months
its can be done quite goodness
by simple and easy tools from the Chinese medicine,nutrition.technique of breathing and meditation to change the frequency of our mind.

couples from a rich society in Germany,New-York,Los Angeles,Singapore,Hong-Kong,Israel
now can be satisfied and happy with their new baby’s
this time i can treat all for almost free,just let me help,treat and do my good thing for the universe

so i guess that the fate just knocked on my door with an invitation to celebrate in India a birth of a baby..make it twince
the story of this lovely couple started when i was at my work in Singapore,they heard of me from the fertility clinic that treat them at their place and want me to come right away to start the treatment.

I have been sent some information on the Ukraine as well as a pdf file which contains all of the cost and success rate data at the clinics. Here is the pdf file:  IVF in Ukraine

The country information that was sent is:

Ukraine – country profile

Travel and tourism in Ukraine in recovery in 2010
Inbound tourism posted a decline in 2010 as a result of the negative influence from neighbouring countries which are Ukraine’s main source countries. However, both outbound and domestic tourism reflected positive growth in 2010. Outbound tourism benefitted from the growing popularity of international holidays, particularly packaged tours, amongst Ukrainian middle-class travellers. Domestic tourism was chosen by many people who could not travel internationally or were not used to international travel.
Visa facilitation becomes a reality
To make Ukraine more attractive to international visitors, the country’s officials have gone ahead with its visa cancellation policy. Starting in 2010, travellers from Brazil, Mexico, Israel and Bosnia-Herzegovina benefitted from visa cancellation agreements, together with Ukrainians, making it cheaper and easier for these tourists to visit Ukraine and Ukrainians to visit these countries than ever before. This process is expected to continue over the forecast period.
Tourism attractiveness management to become an independent business
Clear Vision campaign in Ukraine was created with the idea that tourist flow increases depend not only on infrastructure, security and customs convenience, but that every state must market its own attractions. Ukraine deployed the informational campaign in 2008 and 2009, aiming to further develop the country’s places of interest and their advertising. Along with this campaign, several cultural attractions were either improved or built in the country, such as Baturin Fortress, Olesco Castle and Kamyanets Cultural Park. These were mainly the result of private investors cooperating with the state with regard to rental conditions and exclusive state property usage rights.
Transportation is developing, but not as quickly as expected
Ukraine’s transportation system is not expected to be rapidly modernised, but some development has begun. The railroad operator has developed a new fast route between Odessa, Vinnitsya, Dnipropetrovsk and Kharkiv. Other land carriers are also trying to attract more travellers through marketing activities, including joint campaigns, developing new routes and expanding representatives’ offices. Air travel is in a consolidation process and an “open sky” agreement is pending. The Privat Group controls four major national air carriers, and it is coordinating its activities to prepare for competition with international air carriers. Internet sales are also expected to bring about innovation in transportation.
Preparations for Euro 2012 are evolving
Euro 2012 is expected to be the main driver of inbound tourism development in Ukraine over the forecast period. To prepare for Euro 2012, the country is significantly investing in infrastructure such as accommodation, stadia, public transport links, airports and administrative services, all of which are creating conditions for the development of the travel and tourism industry. The authorities are paying special attention to the modernisation of airports as these will be the points of arrival for most Western Europeans – who will potentially be the biggest spenders of all visitors. UEFA representatives are monitoring progress to avoid potential delays. However, hotel accommodation and an anticipated language barrier are still problems that need to be dealt with. Euro 2012 is expected to boost Ukraine’s travel and tourism industry not only during the event, but also afterwards through increased awareness of Ukraine as a leisure tourism destination.

Leveraging best medical practices backed by cutting-edge technology, specialised clinics, comprehensive services, internationally renowned private hospitals offering the utmost level of integrated healthcare to international patients. 

Although not a member of the EU, Ukraine has some of the very best private medical clinics in Europe. 
 The very low cost of treatment is an obvious attraction, but medical standards are very high and in many cases are far superior to many Western European countries.  
 Compared to the UK savings on medical treatment can be as high as 75 percent. Dentistry, Fertility Treatment, Cosmetic Surgery and Eye Treatment are among the major areas.
The capital city, Kyiv offers some outstanding medical tourist opportunities. Ukraine is a country that needs to be discovered.
During 2010-2011 Medicare Europe will be promoting Ukraine as a major medical tourism destination. Just three hours flying time from London, Ukraine, the largest country in Europe, offers some of the very best medical treatments.
The capital city, Kyiv is a ‘Green City’ and is rich in architecture and history. There are many international hotels together with economy class hotels
All our partner clinics in Ukraine have been inspected and approved by the Medicare Europe team.
The Medical staff in these clinics also speak English, together with some other languages when required.  

Please do not forget to check out the pdf with all the cost and clinic information: IVF in Ukraine

Some further price and success rate information has also been sent to me, here are the figures: IVF prices success rates
