What is the average cost of IVF in the USA?

For a single IVF cycle in the United States, clinics typically quote a base price in the range of 9,000 to 14,000 dollars for the procedure itself. Once you include fertility medications and common add-ons, many patients see per-cycle costs land closer to 15,000 to 25,000 dollars or more, depending on the clinic and the plan of care. Insurance coverage varies widely and many people need more than one transfer or cycle, which is why total spending can climb.

A few costs that often sit on top of the base cycle price

Medications for stimulation: roughly 3,000 to 6,000 dollars per cycle.

Frozen embryo transfer when done later: often 3,000 to 6,000 dollars.

Add-ons when advised (e.g., ICSI or embryo genetic testing): clinics list ICSI in the hundreds to low thousands and PGT-A commonly in the low thousands per cycle.

For a real-world anchor, one national clinic network posts package ranges around 14,700 to just over 20,000 dollars for an IVF cycle before medications, with a separate 4,300 to 6,900 dollars for a frozen embryo transfer. That illustrates why the all-in figure often pushes past 15,000 dollars per attempt.

Two quick tips to reduce guesswork

Ask your clinic for an itemized estimate that separates the base cycle, medications, lab procedures, and transfer fees.

Confirm exactly what your insurance covers, since comprehensive IVF coverage is still limited in many plans.
