IUI, IVF, and Surrogacy Discounts During the Season of Pines and Cones & Beyond

Opening the New Year with exclusive fertility discounts has evolved into a global tradition embraced by clinics worldwide. Winter miracles unfold during the festive and post–festive season, spanning from December through January, or even extending into February, depending on individual clinic and surrogacy agency policies.

January, marking the first post–holiday month of the year, is renowned for the unique discounts offered on a range of services and programs. This allows singles and couples exploring fertility screenings and treatments to pre-order discounted bundles or secure services from leading fertility experts.

While some IVF units, centers, and clinics may extend their discounts until the end of the winter season, others may provide limited–time offers available for booking until the close of January or February. Alternatively, certain fertility hubs may offer unlimited bundles and services at discount but with a restricted validity period, such as until January 31, 2024, or February 29, 2024.

Several fertility clinics extend these discounts across various programs, including Minimal, Standard, Extended, Premium, Deluxe, Multi–cycle, and other IUI, IVF, Egg Donation, and other assisted reproduction services, such as elective single embryo transfer (eSET) followed by single–embryo cryotransfer or double embryo cryotransfer program, vitrification of unfertilized oocytes and embryos, cryopreservation of sperm samples, tubal reversal, surgical sperm retrieval and other. The aim is to make assisted reproduction technologies more accessible for those seeking consultations, screenings, preconception genetic testing, and various assisted reproduction treatment options.

As the New Year unfolds, these exclusive fertility discounts not only enable those seeking fertility help to step closer to making their dream come true closer but also emphasize the commitment of fertility clinics to inclusivity. The financial considerations involved in assisted reproduction can often pose challenges for aspiring mothers– and fathers–to–be. However, with January discounts spanning various services, clinics strive to democratize access to fertility treatments. 

The impact extends beyond mere affordability, fostering a sense of support and understanding within the global fertility community. This collective effort empowers singles and couples from diverse backgrounds, reinforcing the idea that everyone deserves an equal opportunity to embark on the transformative journey of parenthood. In the spirit of the new beginnings that January symbolizes, these discounts pave the way for countless dreams to blossom into reality.

IUI, IVF, and Surrogacy Discounts During the Season of Pines & Cones

For those wondering about the discounted fertility journey, January is an ideal month for taking this opportunity and making the first step towards their dream of having an IUI baby or IVF baby. During this timeframe, it is possible to begin the cycle without a waiting list, complete pre–screening, listen to the second opinion, blueprint the treatment protocol or the plan for the future cycles that will take place this spring, and complete many other essential things without the hustle and bustle.

For those who are exploring surrogacy as their optimal option, agencies also have an extended season of discount gifting: many premium and deluxe surrogacy agencies located globally offer a minimum of $5,000 off on the programs and/or services they provide. A few agencies may offer greater discounts on their Premium and Deluxe bundles, resulting in $10,000 savings or even more, and few may enable you enrolling to their exclusive programs, save up to $39,000, and come back home with a surrogacy newborn within this year. Some of the most prestigious surrogacy agencies offer exclusive and inclusive programs enabling the intended parents to start the surrogacy process as soon as possible or postpone the start of the journey for up to two years after signing the agency services contract.

Furthermore, aspiring singles and couples who have already initiated match meetings themselves and found the perfect surrogate mother wishing to help them may save on matching services the agencies charge and continue with only necessary services, putting back to their budgets around $10,000 the agencies take for surrogate mother recruitment and matching. And those who welcomed their first child via surrogate and would like to go down the surrogacy route for their second child with the same gestational carrier and within the same agency may save on agency’s services including matching, non–medical pre–screening, background checks, and the other agency’s services; and if they also have the vitrified embryo(s) left after the first surrogacy, they can use it (them) in the second surrogacy eliminating fees associated with full–cycle IVF treatment (stimulation, egg donation, oocyte retrieval, fertilization, assisted hatching, sometimes, preimplantation genetic testing, and other). As a result, surrogacy using a cryopreserved embryo involves the participation of only one woman — the surrogate mother, who undergoes a cryotransfer procedure using one or two devitrified embryos. 

So, if you are looking for preconception consults and screenings, male or female fertility screening, pre–IUI or pre–IVF consultations, fertility treatment across Europe, or seeking surrogacy services in the United States, Georgia, Mexico, or Colombia, it is your chance not only to save money but also to hold in your hands the IUI, IVF, or surrogacy baby within this year if starting early.

Unlocking January Joys and Discounts for Those Who Are Traveling

Unlocking January joys extends beyond festivities to those who find themselves on the move. Many singles and couples, originally planning a holiday stay for Christmas and New Year celebrations or an early January break, may choose to linger abroad for various reasons. Whether it is an extended business trip, pursuing education in a foreign country, or visiting relatives and friends, January becomes a time for some to consider, continue, or conclude a part of their IUI or IVF cycle while away.

With January emerging as a seasonal trend for travel, an increasing number of fertility clinics are extending discounted services to both local and international patients. These services encompass initial consultations covering themes from preconception to egg freezing, tubal reversal, sperm retrieval, IUI, and IVF. Moreover, clinics offer preconception, pre–IUI, pre–IVF, pre–egg vitrification, and pre–sperm cryopreservation screenings. For those on the go, more sophisticated fertility tests such as male genetic fertility tests and female ovarian reserve fertility tests, along with other pre–conception genetic screenings, provide a comprehensive approach.

The services go beyond consultations, extending to initiating IUI, IVF, and other treatment cycles and monitoring stimulation phases. This includes remote monitoring, such as blood draws and ultrasound scans, catering to mothers-to-be traveling locally or internationally. Even for those contemplating starting an IUI or IVF cycle after returning home with initial diagnoses, fresh lab tests, and ultrasound scan results, January presents a suitable time. 

For singles and couples aspiring to begin egg freezing, sperm freezing, IUI, or IVF while holidaying or spending the winter season abroad, fertility clinics offer accessible services, making the dream of starting or expanding a family a tangible possibility even while on the move. Additionally, some single women and heterosexual couples who have vitrified embryos banked elsewhere and are opting for a frozen embryo transfer can seamlessly synchronize their winter travels with the Cryotransfer cycle. For those with unfertilized vitrified oocytes, the option to have them fertilized (via ICSI, IMSI, or PICSI) using a partner’s or donor’s sperm becomes an attractive prospect. This flexibility empowers individuals to take advantage of their time abroad, facilitating the transfer of high–quality blastocysts during their stay. The intersection of travel and assisted reproduction services during the winter months becomes not just a logistical convenience but a strategic opportunity for those with reproductive aspirations.

Fertility Discounts Beyond January: A Yearlong Opportunity

For those who missed the early 2024 discounts, additional chances await throughout the year. Middle Eastern countries, including the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and European–Asian Turkey, unveil discounted proposals during Ramadan Kareem and Eid Mubarak. Meanwhile, European fertility clinics gear up for the upcoming spring season, announcing discounted IUI and IVF programs. This makes it possible to purchase Single Stim, Duo Stim, multi–cycle, Blastocyst guarantee, Live birth guarantee, and other brilliantly preconfigured bundles with savings ranging between $1,000 and $19,000, depending on the bundled services. Additionally, Asian destinations release their discounts during summertime, aligning with the majority of people’s vacations.

January Savvy: A Blueprint for Future IUI, IVF, and Surrogacy

For those without an immediate budget for IUI, IVF, or surrogacy, January presents an ideal opportunity to start saving on a monthly basis. The period from early December 2024 to early January 2025 emerges as a brilliant window for investing in discounted assisted reproduction bundles and surrogacy programs, featuring more discounted services than ever. The lack of an initial budget should not deter you from taking steps toward your fertility journey. As an alternative to a swift start to the treatment cycle, initiating consultations, pre–screenings, or pre–conception screenings allows you to understand your available options and find a fitting program. Post–consultation discussions with reproductive specialists provide deep insights into available programs and associated costs, including fees and potential hidden expenses. This extended timeline affords the opportunity to carefully select destinations, fertility clinics, or surrogacy agencies, negotiate options, save for the program and unforeseen expenses, complete necessary screenings and tests, upgrade health insurance policies, and make informed choices regarding gestational surrogate mothers and premium egg donors. Planning during these months not only eases financial constraints but also ensures a well–prepared and informed approach to assisted reproduction or surrogacy.
