Different medications, such as clomiphene citrate, GnRH agonists, Puregon Pen®, Orgalutran®,) are used for IUI and IVF/ICSI treatment.

As everyone reacts differently to drugs, it is difficult to predict the dosage that you need and the duration you will have to take the drugs. It is therefore practically impossible to determine in advance the cost of medications for your individual treatment.

In the case of IVF/ICSI, the eggs and sperm cells are selected and fertilized the laboratory. Your doctor will be able to advise you on how much the laboratory costs are. The laboratory costs for ICSI will be higher due to the extra procedure involved.

The Ministry of Health, Singapore published a report in 2004 titled “In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) In Singapore: Charges and Success Rates” (MOH Information Paper: 2004/05).
