Understanding Fertility Costs

  • IVF

    In-vitro Fertilization offers the latest technology to achieve pregnancies where the natural process fails. This also allows for genetic testing of embryos to avoid transmission of diseases to the offspring, adding new benefits that are not available in natural pregnancies.

    $13,000 - $15,000

  • Egg Freezing

    Egg freezing gives you the opportunity to preserve your eggs for future fertility, allowing you to delay decisions related to your personal or career plans.

    $6,000 - $12,000

  • IUI

    Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) involves directly placing sperm using a catheter inside the uterus. This can be done with or without medication.

    $750 - $2,000

  • Embryo Creation

    Here at Empower Fertility, we can fulfill your dreams of creating a family in any way possible by utilizing previously frozen eggs or frozen sperm, donor eggs or donor sperm, or any combination of the above.

    $7,000 - $15,000

  • FET

    Frozen embryo transfer (FET) involves preparing the uterus with hormones to open up the window of implantation so that the embryo can be successfully placed to achieve pregnancy. This synchronization of embryo and uterine implantation window is the key to Empower Fertility's success.

    $4,000 - $8,000
