Types of IVF Treatment available in Singapore
Conventional IVF - This is the most commonly practised type of IVF in which more than one egg is stimulated within the woman's ovaries and extracted to be fertilized with the sperm of the partner inside a lab. Once the embryo forms, the best-quality embryo is selected and is then transferred into the uterus. One treatment cycle of conventional IVF in Singapore may cost USD 12,000.
Natural Cycle IVF - Using this technique, one egg from the woman is extracted during her menstrual cycle without administering hormone-stimulating drugs. The egg is fertilized in the laboratory, and the formed embryo is then implanted into the uterus. Usually, a natural cycle IVF in Singapore can average $10,000 per cycle.
Minimal Stimulation IVF - In minimal stimulation IVF, just a few fertility drugs are taken to help prompt the ovaries to develop a few eggs. The eggs are then picked, and fertilized outside of the patient's body, and the embryos are returned to the uterus. This treatment can generally cost around SGD 8,000 per cycle in Singapore.
