What fertility treatment costs

Medicare covers part of the cost of investigations and of IVF cycles, and the out-of-pocket is still substantial and varies a lot between clinics. Medication, freezing and storage are usually billed separately, so the headline cycle price is rarely the whole picture. Low-cost and bulk-billing clinics operate in most states.

When women seek help

Guidance is generally to seek help after about twelve months of trying under 35, or six months from 35, and sooner if there is a known reason to. You do not have to wait out the clock if something feels wrong.

Questions worth asking

  • What is the full out-of-pocket for one cycle, including medication, freezing and storage?
  • What are your live birth rates for women in my age group, rather than pregnancy rates?
  • Who would I actually see at each appointment, and can I request the same person?
  • What happens to embryos we do not use, and what does storage cost each year?
  • What counselling and support is included if a cycle does not work?
  • Is there a waiting list, and how long before we could start?
