Hi,
On our first IVF we paid 15K, 2nd is with donor eggs it was 22K. These figures include all medications. It varies from state to state. Our ins does not cover fertility either so we have paid everything out of pocket. Best of luck if you are thinking about trying it:):)
how much is IVF? My insurance dosent pay anything that says fertility.
Dear phoebe3289 -
The success of IVF has actually very little to do with the extent of adhesions around your fallopian tubes, as IVF bypasses the tubes. In fact, when human IVF was invented back in 1978 it was used almost 100% for women with damaged tubes. It was only in later years that other causes of infertility were treated with IVF.
The most important predictor of success in IVF is your age; if you are 35 or younger, chances are excellent. At ages 36-39 chances are intermediate. Age 40 or older the chances of success with IVF drop off.
The only consideration with the fallopian tubes, if IVF is required, is that if the tubes are swollen and filled with fluid (this is called hydrosalpinx) your infertility MD might want to remove them before trying IVF, as the fluid can sometimes wash back into the uterus and decrease the chances of implantation. However, if the tubes are not filled with fluid, this will not be required.
