How much does it cost to do IVF in India?

In the current times, many couples face problems in family planning. Infertility may be caused in the woman or the man. It may be because of stress, lifestyle problems or any other genetic issues. But with the advent of technology, infertility is no more a cause of tension. It can be dealt with easily using the developments in medical sciences. Our medical experts have developed various Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART) which have made it possible for couples to have a child naturally. It may be in the form of artificial insemination, intra cytoplasmic sperm injection or using infertility medicines or even In Vitro Fertilization.


In Vitro Fertilization is one of the most commonly adopted techniques used for dealing with infertility. This technique is used when the fallopian tubes are blocked in women, or she suffers from PolyCystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), any kind of genetic disorder in either the female or male or reduced sperm count or male infertility, etc. It is used even when the reasons for infertility are unable to be determined.

The procedure for IVF includes the eggs of the woman extracted from the body using a thin catheter which is inserted in the female body after taking an ultrasound scan of the abdominal area.
The catheter is guided into the uterine area of the woman through the help of ultrasound images. The eggs are thus extracted from the female body and kept in a petri dish in the laboratory under special conditions. The male sperm is also collected which is made ready to be infused with the female egg. The egg and the sperm are kept in a single dish to be fertilized. Once the fertilization happens, it forms an embryo. It is kept outside for 3-5 days after the formation of the embryo.

The embryo is then transferred to the uterus of the woman by using a catheter which is inserted in the uterus of the woman. This may cause a slight cramping the the woman. IVF is most successful if the age of the woman is below 35 years. With the increase in age, the chances of success rate of this procedure decreases and more sessions of IVF need to be done for better results.

The best infertility treatment in Noida is done with assurance that child bearing will no more be a trouble for couples. The cost of treatment of infertility cannot be exactly estimated. It differs from situation to situation, the process used and also varies from one city to another. However, in general, the charges for infertility treatment in India is much lower than that of Western countries. Specialized hospitals and doctors (IVF Specialists) in top cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, etc. provide the best cutting edge technology for treatment to ensure a healthy pregnancy. The treatment costs also differ if you need additional treatments or use frozen eggs or donor sperms/eggs. These would be required by couples with low fertility rates.

When comes to the age of a woman, again the treatment varies. A woman of age lower than 32 years has chances of successful IVF treatment around 30% whereas women around 40 years of age may have to get the IVF treatment around 5 times done. These days, the treatment packages are offered as such which include multiple cycle IVF treatment. Usually in India, families go for fertility treatment ranging from 2 lakh onwards, which again varies.
