    Hi,

    I went back in Feb, the initial consultation was $180, he did 2 blood test when i was there – one was covered by Medicare, the other one was not, i think that one was $60 it was a new one which established my AMH level which indicated your ovarian reserve ( mine was way too low, but i think you know that) i also was given 2 referrals one for my DH to get his swimmers tested $130 and i had to get a pelvic u/s and a HyCoSy done ( to check if you have blocked tubes and stuff) which was $499, after i had all the results i took them all back to the FS and as it was my second visit it was “only” $100 this time, i cannot remember how much i got back from Medicare but it was only a fraction in any case... i was also told to consider IFV which is about $ 8K ab-front but you get quite a bit back for some reason this FS did not mention IUI as i know it would be cheaper...

    This is where i left it all in reg to the FS, as i decided to go down the Ch Dr path which i know is the right thing for me in my situation...


    Hope that helps, all the best with it all hun i know it can be quite confronting, one bit of advice – no matter what the outcome will be – never give up hope !
