Learn more about the cost of egg freezing

When women visit Texas Fertility Center – San Antonio to discuss fertility preservation, they often ask about the cost of egg freezing. Our San Antonio egg freezing specialists give women detailed information about these costs. Additionally, our physicians offer an egg freezing financing program to make fertility preservation more accessible.

What is included in the cost?

The cost of egg freezing includes everything from medications to long-term storage. Our San Antonio female fertility preservation specialists can explain what is included in the final cost.

• The first step of freezing your eggs involves fertility medications and monitoring appointments. These medications encourage a woman’s body to produce multiple eggs. The monitoring appointments assess a woman’s response to the medications and determine when she is ready for egg retrieval.
• The second step is the egg retrieval procedure. During this step, a woman comes to our San Antonio fertility center for a quick outpatient procedure under light sedation. The cost includes the time of the fertility specialist, nurses and anesthesiologist. It also includes the use of the surgery center and cost of anesthesia and other medications.
• The third step is the cryopreservation and storage of the eggs. Embryologists freeze the eggs and ship them to the Ovation® storage facility. Then, the team there monitors the eggs 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The cost of cryopreservation and long-term storage at Ovation are included in this step.

When considering an investment in egg freezing, it’s important to remember that a woman will have to pay to have an embryologist thaw her eggs and fertilize them with sperm before a fertility specialist transfers the resulting embryo to her uterus.
