IVF Treatment in Israel Program

In order to save you unnecessary hassle and make sure you undergo all the required procedures during a single visit to Israel, we'll need to know the date of your menstrual cycle and the expected date of your next cycle. The investigations will need to be performed during days 28-2 of your cycle, so stimulation can begin on day 3-4.

Stage 1

Female patient’s check-up includes:

• Comprehensive blood work-up (including CBC, CMP, coagulation factors, hormonal and lipid profiles, virology (HIV, HbsAg, HCV Ab, rubella IgG, CMV IgG & IgM, toxoplasma IgG & IgM and VDRL)
• Urine tests (urinalysis and biochemistry)
• Gynecologist consultation, breast exam and pelvic US

Male partner’s check-up includes:

• Blood work-up (including CBC, CMP, HIV, HbsAg, HCV Ab)
• Semen analysis

Said investigations take 3 business days.

Please note that additional tests may be indicated. They are not included in the aforementioned prices, and are to be paid for separately.

Stage 2

This stage takes approximately 21 days. Please note that your partner may leave Israel following stage 1 and return on his scheduled date of sperm extraction.

This stage includes:

• IVF specialist consultations
• Ovarian stimulation follow-up (as an outpatient) by means of blood tests and US scans
