Freezing eggs can be a costly process, but have you considered the long-term benefits it offers? While the initial price tag might seem daunting, the ability to preserve your fertility and have children later in life can be priceless. Let’s discuss the cost difference if you opt to freeze your eggs and explore whether the investment is worth it in the grand scheme of things. Share your thoughts and experiences below!
I spent 10k on the process of thawing frozen eggs, fertilization, embryology, and a fresh transfer.
Thanks! I am consistently confused about the difference between fresh and frozen because my eggs are frozen, but then I suppose my embryos wouldn’t be.
The cost of egg donation can vary significantly depending on where you live in the world. In the U.S., you can expect to pay around $3,500 to $5,000 for the embryo creation process, and a similar amount for PGT-A testing. Additionally, each transfer will cost between $3,500 to $8,000 including medications.
I am planning to use my frozen eggs from 5 years ago, and the entire process including thawing, fertilization, testing, and transfer is going to cost around $14-16k. Freezing my eggs 5 years ago also cost approximately $15k. I initially thought it would be cheaper this time around, but turns out I was wrong. Oh well, jokes on me! I am located in NYC and will be going to Weill Cornell for the procedure.
