GO IVF SURROGACY: Your Guide to IVF Treatment Cost in Delhi

The IVF treatment cost in Delhi per attempt for infertile couples ranges from INR 1,75,000 to INR 2,20,000 depending on various factors such as the couple's age, body weight, dietary habits, reason for infertility, previous history of miscarriage, etc. Primary Procedure IVF consists of six steps, and they are:

a) Ovulation induction: During this step of IVF treatment, the fertility doctor will give the mother a dose of fertility medicine to help stimulate her ovaries and help her produce more eggs for fertilization. Using an ultrasound scanning probe, a fertility specialist will carefully monitor a woman's ovaries to check for egg growth. The specialist also performs a blood test to ensure correct hormone levels.

b) Egg retrieval: In this step, the fertility doctor uses a hollow needle called a catheter inside the woman's ovaries to retrieve the eggs. A catheter is a thin, fine needle that passes through a woman's upper vaginal wall to help a fertility professional remove excess fluid from the follicles. When performing the egg retrieval process, the fertility specialist gives the woman local anesthesia to reduce pain and discomfort.

c) Secured Sperm: Secured sperm is a process where a fertility specialist asks a male member to produce a sperm sample for fertilization. Once the sample is received, the male member's sperm is processed and prepared by laboratory techniques so that fertility specialists can obtain motile sperm. Once this procedure is completed, the specialist will use the IVF/ICSI to inseminate the woman's retrieved eggs.

d) Egg Fertilization: This is the step of IVF where a fertility specialist combines the intended parent's eggs and sperm to facilitate the fertilization process. Until the eggs and sperm become embryos, an expert will manage their development.

e) Embryo transfer: This is the most crucial step of the IVF procedure. On the day of the embryo transfer, a skilled and experienced embryo specialist will pick up the healthy and most active embryo for transfer into the mother's uterus and wait for signs and symptoms of pregnancy.

f) Pregnancy test: Specialists perform a pregnancy test a fortnight after the embryo transfer. On this day, the fertility specialist will take the woman for an ultrasound scan, where she will scan her ovaries to see the sac and listen to the baby's heartbeat. If both conditions are met, a confirmed pregnancy has occurred, and the specialist releases the couple from the IVF clinic to the local gynecologist, where the pregnancy grows as usual.

Note: The above steps apply to the primary IVF procedure. However, suppose the couple fails to conceive a child through the primary procedure on the first try. In that case, they can undergo a second IVF attempt by paying a reasonable IVF price in Delhi, or they can opt for advanced IVF treatment to have their baby.

What are the advanced IVF procedures that help couples have a baby if the primary IVF procedure fails, and how much do they cost?

The following are advanced IVF procedures that help couples have a baby if the primary IVF procedure fails at their expense. These are:

a) IVF with ICSI: IVF with ICSI is the best procedure to treat male infertility problems. Male infertility is a condition where the male partner faces a lack of sperm in the ejaculate for fertilization. In such cases, the fertility specialist will use two techniques to extract the sperm from the ejaculate of the male member. (i) TESA: Testicular sperm aspiration or (ii) PESA: Percutaneous epididymal sperm aspiration. Once the experts surgically extract the sperm, they inject one sperm directly into each egg to facilitate fertilization. The IVF cost in Delhi for this procedure is around INR 2,20,000.

b) Egg Donor IVF: This is an advanced technique where a fertility doctor borrows eggs from young, healthy, and fertile women to artificially fertilize them with the intended father or donor sperm to facilitate fertilization. Once fertilization occurs, a specialist transfers the created embryo into the mother's uterus. A fertility specialist recommends IVF with egg donors to those couples where the partners have failed to produce more quality eggs but want to keep the child in the womb. The total cost of IVF treatment in Delhi for egg donation procedure is around INR 8,00,000.

c) IVF with sperm donor: This advanced IVF procedure is also helpful in treating male infertility problems. It is a procedure in which a fertility specialist fertilizes the intended mother's egg donor sperm to facilitate the fertilization process—the IVF charges in Delhi with sperm donors range from INR 2,00,000 to INR 2,20,000. Couples must consult their fertility doctor before this procedure.

d) IVF with Surrogacy: This is the most advanced IVF procedure where fertility experts first collect eggs and sperm from the intended parents for fertilization. Once the fertilization process is complete, an experienced embryo specialist places the created embryo into the uterus of the surrogate mother, and she carries the baby in her womb for nine months. The total cost of IVF in Delhi for surrogacy ranges from INR 18 lakhs to INR 22 lakhs.
