The cost of third generation IVF is around$100,000. Also known as pre-implantation genetic diagnosis technology, third generation IVF is mainly for people with chromosomal abnormalities or genetic disorders, or recurrent fetal abortions. Because III IVF requires blastocysts to test for chorionic chromosomes, a higher number of embryos are needed. Some people with reduced ovarian function may require two or three ovulation cycles for embryo genetic diagnosis. Third generation IVF insemination is performed using a single sperm follicular plasmapheresis technique, so it is also more costly than first generation IVF. There is also the need for embryo freezing and embryo recovery, so both increase the cost of third generation IVF.
