[yellowflowers]

Hi all,

Just wodnering in case we go this route - how much did iui with stimulation (and therefore scans to track everything) cost you per cycle?

Thanks,

Hey yellowflowers

bump

thanks fruitypie - was just about to bump it myself. Am hoping we qualify for nhs treatment but if not am trying to be prepared.

About 650 per cycle. It was Barts so they do a thing where they charge private patients the same as they charge the PCT. Other hospitals may be a bit more.

£550 about two years ago in Derby.

ooh that is much better than I expected - that's with stimulation and scanning to check for hyperstimulation? I was expecting answer to be thousands...

Hi Yellow, I'm on my 3rd IUI now and my cost changes every month depending on how many ampules of FSH I need. £610 is the cost of the treatment per cycle (with as many scans as needed) plus £16 per ampule of FSH. So for me it's about £800 to £1000 (I do have more than most ). Hope that helps, good luck.

Sorry to ask question on your thread yellowflowers - but madrose, saw you posted it was in Derby, near me (we thinkin we may have to go private as wait of NHS is not good for me right now) - do you mind saying which hospital you used?

Hi Vikks - thanks for replying - where are you having it and how are you finding it? Good luck.

No probs at all Keziahhopes - hope you get answers you need.

Yellow - The IUI itself is really quick and painless. Going up to the hospital a lot for scans is very time consuming, I?ve been going 5-6 times per cycle. Thankfully my boss is very understanding and knows what I?m going through. Having the scans and seeing your follicles is very exciting, knowing that you have a real chance of getting PG is brilliant. The down side to the whole process, is how much it messes with my head, the ?rollercoaster? ups and downs seem a lot bigger. As the years tick by I guess that?s bound the happen whatever treatment you?re on. Good luck
BTW I?m having it done at the Bath Fertility Clinic.

Thanks vikks - as I've said on another thread I think I am mostly scared if it doesn't work that that's another option ticked off the list and taking us nearer the never have a baby conclusion. I hadn't thought about what it would be like to see follicles - how exciting. And to know that the sperm are no way going to get lost en route.

in Cardiff it can be up to £1000 but depends as you pay as you go along and if a cycle is abandoned then it's less.
