Estimated drug costs Our medication is tailored to each patient based on their medical history and blood test results. 73% of our patients have a treatment plan with drug costs between £935 and £1911. Some patients – usually those over 35 – need extra medication. It’s challenging to estimate likely medication costs, but they can range from £935 to £2595. Please be reassured that we will tell you the exact cost of the drugs we recommend before you decide to start treatment. When treatment with a fresh embryo transfer leads to pregnancy, we prescribe a medication known as luteal support. The typical additional cost of luteal support medication is £112. |

Estimated drug costs Patients having a transfer with embryos created using frozen eggs are typically prescribed drugs costing between £150 and £410 to prepare their uterus for embryo transfer. When treatment is successful, we prescribe medication up to the 10th week of pregnancy. The cost of this medication is £225. Our research shows that 33% of our patients do not absorb enough progesterone medication from pessaries. In these patients, we recommend injectable progesterone as “rescue luteal support” up to the pregnancy test and then up to 10 weeks of pregnancy. The cost of this medication is up to £795. |

Treatment fees are paid before the treatment starts. Bank transfer, debit and credit cards are accepted methods of payment. Our preferred method is by debit card.
In cases where your health insurance may fund consultations and investigations, you must pay the fees directly to CARE and then claim the cost back from your insurer. We are unable to negotiate claims directly with health insurers.
CARE reserves the right to amend prices. If you have a consultation with Care and agree to a recommended course of treatment, we will provide you with a fully costed treatment plan and an invoice that sets out the cost of the medications we recommend. Once the treatment and medication invoices are paid, we will provide treatment for the agreed price, which will not change unless we give you six months' notice. If we implement price changes before you have paid your invoices for treatment then we will provide you with an updated costed treatment plan and invoices so that we can expressly agree the cost of treatment with you before you enter into a contract with Care by paying for your treatment and medication.
Effective from 7 November 2022.
