(3) ‘What is in the bundle?’

Investigate the Oocyte devitrification + ICSI, IMSI, PICSI with the partner’s/husband’s or donor’s (fresh or frozen) sperm + embryo transfer bundle’s 18 major configurations that are ‘launched’ in the treatment protocol.

●Always get–in–touch–mode with the multilingual International Patients’ IVF Coordinators.

●Initial consultation over the telephone, via Skype, WhatsApp or other virtual calling or messaging tool with Fertility Pro.

●There is no controlled ovarian stimulation and oocyte retrieval protocol empowered by the Fertility Pros as the oocytes have been already retrieved in the previous egg freezing cycle and vitrified for the future use in FET cycle(s).

●But there is IVF–ICSI/IMSI/PICSI cycle empowered by the Fertility Pros as the embryos have not been generated in the previous IVF/ICSI/IMSI/PICSI cycle. Thus, after the oocytes’ devitrification, the Fertility Pros will create the embryos through ICSI, IMSI or PICSI using the devitrified eggs and the partner’s/husband’s or donor’s (fresh or frozen) sperm.

●Drafting, finalizing and issuing the personalized ‘Oocyte devitrification + ICSI, IMSI, PICSI with the partner’s/husband’s or donor’s (fresh or frozen) sperm + embryo transfer’ or the other ‘Designer’s’ treatment protocol with the Fertility Pro.

●Discussing, drafting, and tuning–up the ‘Designer’s’ treatment protocol on the patient’s or couple’s demand.

●One ultimate endometrial preparation cycle tracking (ultimate clinical management of the patient’s endometrial preparation cycle including the consultations, the blood tests, the monitoring ultrasound scans, and other diagnostic screenings involved in the FET cycle) by the Fertility Pros.

●Devitrification of the one, two or more oocytes for empowering the oocyte devitrification and ICSI, IMSI or PICSI protocol on the patient’s or couple’s demand.

●One fresh sperm collection and sperm preparation cycle by the Fertility Pros (surgical sperm collection is not covered by this pack). Or devitrification of the partner’s/husband’s or donor’s sperm sample and its preparation for ICSI, IMSI, PICSI.

●ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection) technique (every mature oocyte is fertilized with the intended father’s sperm manually using the ICSI technique).

●Assisted hatching or laser–assisted hatching for the devitrified embryos.

●Gender selection of the embryo or embryos suitable for the transfer on the patient’s or couple’s demand.

●One embryo transfer trial.

●One–day stay in the clinic lasting up to 4 hours and post–oocyte retrieval care.

●Pregnancy tests: blood pregnancy test and a urine pregnancy test.

●Early pregnancy ultrasound scan to confirm the viable pregnancy or to confirm that the pregnancy has not been achieved plus the consultation of your personal Fertility Pro on the results obtained after the IVF cycle has been finished.

●On–demand vitrification of the embryos that won’t be used in the current cycle.

●On–demand vitrification of the semen samples for future use in the treatment cycles with a frozen sperm sample.

(3) ‘What is not in the bundle?’

The configurations that are not ‘installed’ in the ‘Oocyte devitrification + ICSI, IMSI, PICSI with the partner’s/husband’s or donor’s (fresh or frozen) sperm + embryo transfer’ protocol, thus, charged as extra fees:

Consultations (in person) with a Fertility Pro:

●Initial Consultation with the Fertility Pro (in person) — 125.00 USD.

Pre–cycle male and female diagnostic screenings’ and tests’ fees:

●Pre–cycle diagnostic screenings for the patient/couple (female pre–cycle diagnostic screening pack and male pre–cycle diagnostic screening pack are purchased as extra packs). Every pre–cycle diagnostic screening pack is configured for every patient/couple according to the specific situation. The configurations can be ‘doubled–down’ (if dual screenings or tests should be done to confirm or validate the diagnosis), ‘attached’ (if the Fertility Pro recommends undergoing an extra screening) or ‘detached’ (if there is no necessity to do the screening test). Thus, the approximate pre–cycle’s screening bundle’s cost cannot be estimated. It varies between 993.00 USD—1200.00 USD.

●Pre–cycle diagnostic blood tests — 255.00 USD (for AMH test and Panel of Blood Day 3).

●Pre–cycle diagnostic blood tests — the approximate costs of the Pre–cycle diagnostic blood tests’ female and male bundles cannot be estimated as the list of the blood test varies from the patient to the patient and the couple to the couple. The ultimate list of the blood tests that can be involved in IVF cycle: Complete Blood Count Test, Blood Chemistry Test, Blood Type Test, LH (luteinizing hormone) Test, FSH (follicle–stimulating hormone) Test, Estradiol (estrogen steroid hormone) Test, TSH (thyroid–stimulating hormone) Test, Free T4 (Thyroxine) Test, Prolactin Test, Vitamin D Concentrations Test, Rubella Test, Toxoplasma Test, HIV1 Test, HIV2 Test, Hepatitis B Test, Hepatitis C Test, Syphilis Test, Cystic Fibrosis Carrier Test, Diabetes (Hemoglobin Glycosylated) Test.

●Infectious Profile (STD Panel) — the approximate costs of the Pre–cycle STD Panel diagnostic tests’ female and male are available on the patient’s/couple’s demand.

●Viral infections’ screening tests — the approximate costs of the Pre–cycle STD Panel diagnostic tests’ female and male are available on the patient’s/couple’s demand.

●AMH (Anti–Müllerian Hormone Concentrations’ Test) — 134.00 USD.

Extra techniques that can be involved in the FET cycle and their fees:

●Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT–A) — 2,000.00 USD + embryo fee of $300USD for the first embryo and $250USD per additional embryo ** Fees involved in PGT–A are charged in the following way: 300.00 USD is charged for the first embryo, and 250.00 USD is charged for every additional embryo screened.
