IVF Cost at Medicana International Hospital IVF Center – Istanbul, Turkey – Great Information

I have had a very thorough reply to my IVF Cost Letter from Medicana International Hospital IVF Center – Istanbul, Turkey. Their prices certainly seem reasonable.

The contact details for the clinic are:

Address: Beylikduzu Street No 3, Beylikduzu, Istanbul, Turkey

Phone: +90 212 867 79 18

Website: http://www.turkey-ivf.com

Here is their response:

The questions I have regarding treatment at your clinic are:

1.What is the current success rate for your clinic? (preferably by age as I know that the success rate will be much lower for somebody of my age)

 Here are our cumulative pregnancy rates in the following format.

 

Woman’s Age Pregnancy test (B-hcg +) Clinical Pregnancy
30 or younger 65 % 52 %
30 – 35 57 % 44 %
35 – 40 40 % 32%
41 – 43 27 % 14%
43 – 45 11 % 6 %

 2. How many cycles do you perform per year at the clinic?

 

Between 900-1000 patients

3. What is the maximum age that you treat?

We do not accept patients older than 45 years of age for ivf treatment.

4. Are there any fertility conditions that you will not treat?

If  woman’s  FSH is higher  than 20 mIU/ml at day 3, or male  has been undergone micro TESE operation before and sperms not found, we do not start IVF treatment. Besides, we do not try tubal re-anastomosis operation in tubal blockage cases since our IVF success rates are quite high.

5. What is your embryo transfer policy? How many embryos will you replace at one time?

We do not transfer more than two embryos, since we believe that transferring more than two embryos only increases multiple pregnancy rate.  Also we offer to transfer only one good quality blastocyst in first trial to young patients (<35 years of age) , but it is the decision of the couple.

6. What is the basic cost of the IVF treatment?

Our Package Prices are as follows;

Option 1 £ 1500

IVF / ICSI  Package
Including all exams, ultrasound, blood tests
Assisted Hatching ( With Laser) Included
IMSI ( In severe male factor cases) Included 

Freezing Excess Embryos ( With Vitrification )           £ 250

All cycle costs are package costs and include all the ultrasound scans, anaesthetic charges, doctor’s fees and post-op recovery where applicable.
At the time of egg collection, if there are no eggs or failed fertilisation, we refund £ 300 for cancellation of embryo  transfer.
Pregnancy scans are charged separately.
Medication costs are charged separately and can vary from patient to patient. Patients are requested to buy the drugs from the pharmacy themselves

Option 2 £ 2350 

Option 1 + all drugs and medications until embryo transfer

Option 3 £ 3250

Option 2 +  freezing the extra embryos and also a 20 night accommodation in a flat and airport transfers. Flat is fully furnished and very near to our Hospital (in walking distance).

7. What additional costs would / could be incurred?

If you have embryo(s) frozen, the cost of storage after one year is 120  £ annually

 TESA  280 £

Sperm freezing 150 £

 Micro TESE 550 £

8. What happens to the costs if the cycle has to be abandoned?

If the stimulation protocol is cancelled due to failure of follicular growth, we charge only examinations and blood tests. If embryo transfer is cancelled due to fertilization failure or embryonic development  arrest, we refund £ 350 for cancellation of embryo transfer.

9. How long would I need to be in Turkey  for?

If we will start the treatment at second or third day of the mensturation, it will probably last in 15-20 days with the embryo transfer.

10. Who deals with the logistics of flights and accommodation?

You will arrange  the flight tickets yourself but we can pick you up from airport for transfer to Hotel. Also we can help you for accommodation (hotel or residence near to our Hospital)  

Coordinator for patient relations in our IVF centre will help you.

11. How is the pre-treatment carried out?

You can send us the copies of all your medical records before you start. 

For woman; fT4 (free thyroxine),TSH, Prolactine  levels are required and also HBSAg, Anti-HCV , Anti-HIV is required

For man: HBSAg, Anti-HCV , Anti-HIV, sperm analysis are required. 

All the details of previous treatments will be helpful to understand the medical condition also. 

 12. How do I get medication?

As we start the treatment we provide the drugs in the package program or you can buy from pharmacy yourself.

13. How will I be monitored?

We will start the treatment at second or third day of the mensturation. The treatment will begin with daily injections and after three days you will be controlled again by ultrasound and blood levels of hormones to adjust the drug dosage. In every other day, you should be examined again and at about 9th or 10th day of treatment, you will have the final injection and in 36 hours your eggs will be collected under general anaesthesia. After that, your embryo transfer will be performed between 2 – 5 days .

14. How will I know that I am not being under / over stimulated?

In ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome, you may feel swelling and discomfort in the abdomen, sometimes nausea and vomiting, bowel problems and changes in urine colour and consistency. We will observe your stimulation closely to prevent hyperstimulation. If your ovaries are polycyctic type ( that means more sensitive for hyperstimulation), you should have daily monitoring with ultrasound and blood levels of oestradiol. 

Understimulation is easily diagnosed by ultrasound and blood levels and managed by modulating the drug dosage. 

15. If I have a problem whilst in the UK who would I go to?

Couples are free to return UK next day after embryo transfer. Sometimes problems like ectopic pregnancy, missed abortion, threatened abortion can occur just as after spontaneous pregnancy. In these circumstances, your local consultant will help you. We are always willing to give medical advice and direct you by phone or mail.

16. Is the clinic registered with any regulatory body?

Our IVF centre is located in Medicana International Hospitals Group which is one of the largest and pioneer of private Hospitals in Turkey. It is approved by our Ministry of Health and also Our Hospital is accredited by ISO and JCI (Joint Commission International) regularly.
