I understand that private care in women’s health and in particular fertility, can be financially challenging. I therefore place great importance on spending the time to outline any fee structure that is associated with your care so that you understand it and can make informed decisions.
Monash IVF Fees*
The cost of IVF is often overestimated by patients and should always be accompanied with any other costs associated with IVF treatment. The following are fees set by Monash IVF for IVF, Artificial Insemintation (IUI), Ovulation Induction and Egg Freezing. They require specific interpretation to be applicable to your situation and I would be very happy to help you do this via email, phone or during a consultation.
