What RSMC Discloses Before You Commit
Cost surprises are one of the most common sources of distress in the donor egg IVF process. A quoted price and the actual total cost of a cycle are not always the same number. At RSMC, we walk intended parents through every cost component before any commitment is made.
The categories above represent the typical cost structure of a donor egg IVF cycle. The specific figures vary based on the egg bank, your protocol, and whether optional services like PGT-A are included. What we can tell you is what goes into the number — and what questions to ask of any clinic or egg bank you’re evaluating.
“A quoted price and the actual total cost of a cycle are not always the same number. Ask specifically: what is not included in this quote?”
The Most Important Question on Cost
Before you compare any two programs on price, ask each one: “What is not included in this quote?” The answer reveals whether the figure you’re comparing is the real total or the starting point. Common exclusions include medications, shipping, genetic testing, and storage fees.
