What Is IVF?
IVF stands for In Vitro Fertilization and is a process of fertilization where an egg is combined with sperm in vitro. The process involves monitoring and stimulating a woman’s ovulatory process. Then mature eggs are collected from the ovaries, letting a man’s sperm fertilize them in a laboratory. The treatment is done by placing one or more fertilized eggs in a uterus, for an embryo to develop. One full cycle of IVF takes 2-3 weeks.
Cost Of Treatment In Singapore
In Singapore, In Vitro Fertilization treatment is available in the public and private healthcare clinics. Private clinics’ waiting time is often shorter than in public ones. The average cost of an IVF cycle in the private hospitals would be approximately S$13,000 to S$22,000. Additional consultations, doctor fees, and fertility tests can add up to the total cost.
Using MediSave For IVF
Medisave can be used for IVF treatments performed locally. It is possible to withdraw the money from your own and/or your spouse’s Medisave accounts. A lifetime withdrawal limit per couple is $15,000.
1st treatment cycle: up to $6,000
2nd treatment cycle: up to $5,000
3rd and subsequent treatment cycles: up to $4,000
IVF Success Rate
The average success rate of the treatment on the first attempt is around 20-35% but varies due to the age of a woman. Females under the age of 30 have a 46% chance of getting pregnant, as at this age range women are the most fertile. Meanwhile, females above the age of 40 have a less than 12% chance of success. The average amount of cycles is 2-3.
