IVF cost at GI Rimon: full transparency

At GI Rimon the cost of IVF with ICSI ranges from €4,000 to €7,500, depending on the package. The cost depends mainly on the type of program: whether it includes the hormonal medication and the tests required before stimulation, or whether the patient arranges them separately.

We offer two main options:

  • the basic program, without medication and pre-stimulation tests — €4,000;
  • the comprehensive program, with all the required medication and tests — €7,500.

The cost of the IVF procedure from start to finish covers the main medical stages: ovarian stimulation with ultrasound monitoring, egg retrieval under short anesthesia, fertilization in the laboratory by ICSI, embryo culture to the blastocyst stage and one embryo transfer. Each additional transfer costs €1,500, and genetic testing of the embryos (PGD with NGS) costs €500.

The final price may vary by up to 10%, depending on the complexity of the case and any additional tests required. The full price list of all our programs, including programs with donor eggs, donor sperm and donor embryos, is on the price list page.

What’s included

What our IVF treatment program includes

Our IVF program covers the main stages: ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, fertilization in the laboratory and embryo transfer. Throughout the process every patient receives personal support from our medical team in English or Hebrew.

The cycle begins with ovarian stimulation using hormonal medication, with regular ultrasound monitoring of the number and growth of the follicles. After egg retrieval under short anesthesia, we fertilize the eggs in the laboratory by ICSI. The embryos are cultured for five to six days under controlled conditions, after which an embryo can be transferred to the uterus; the number of embryos to transfer is decided by the doctor together with the patient.

Our program includes:

  • medical consultation and an individual protocol;
  • ovarian stimulation and ultrasound monitoring;
  • egg retrieval under short anesthesia;
  • fertilization by ICSI;
  • embryo culture to day 5–6;
  • one embryo transfer;
  • medical guidance in English and Hebrew throughout the cycle.

Medication and pre-stimulation tests are included only in the comprehensive program, and in any case the medication can also be bought in your home country. Embryos remaining after the transfer can be frozen, as described on the embryo freezing page.

In detail

The IVF procedure: stages and protocol in detail

The IVF procedure in Georgia at GI Rimon starts with preliminary tests and requires a stay of about three weeks on average. We adapt the protocol to each couple according to the woman’s age and general health; it includes ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, fertilization in the laboratory and embryo transfer. Our IVF method combines advanced technology with personal monitoring at every stage.

  1. Preliminary tests.

    Hormone tests (FSH, LH, AMH, estradiol), ultrasound of the ovaries and uterus and a semen analysis. Part of the tests can be done at home, and you send us the results.

  2. Ovarian stimulation.

    Gonadotropins (FSH and LH) for about ten days on average, monitored by blood tests and ultrasound to follow the maturation of the follicles and adjust the medication dose.

  3. Egg retrieval.

    When the follicles reach the right size, we perform the retrieval under short anesthesia, a procedure of 20–30 minutes.

  4. Fertilization in the laboratory.

    Immediately after retrieval the eggs are fertilized by our embryologists by ICSI, in which a single sperm cell is injected into the egg.

  5. Embryo culture.

    The embryos grow under controlled conditions to the blastocyst stage, five to six days.

  6. Embryo transfer.

    The embryo is transferred to the uterus in a short procedure without anesthesia, sometimes two embryos; the number depends on age and embryo quality. The first transfer is included in the program price.

Who it suits

When is IVF the solution to fertility problems?

IVF may be the right treatment for blocked fallopian tubes, a severe male factor, endometriosis and unexplained infertility. At GI Rimon we consider IVF when simpler fertility treatments have not led to a pregnancy for a year or more.

Our doctors review every case individually and assess whether assisted reproductive technology is right for the couple. IVF may be particularly suitable for women aged 35–40 and older, for couples after repeated failures of intrauterine insemination, and in cases where the maturation of good-quality eggs is impaired.

Before the cycle starts, tests for IVF are required, including an assessment of the ovarian reserve, hormone tests and a detailed semen analysis. When the sperm quality is low, we apply ICSI as part of the fertilization procedure at no extra cost. Diagnosis and the alternatives before IVF are described on the infertility treatment page.

Donor programmes

IVF with donor eggs: an additional option

IVF with donor eggs is an option for women with a low ovarian reserve, poor egg quality or hereditary genetic diseases. At GI Rimon we apply an IVF protocol with donor eggs adapted to each patient. Our donors — women aged 18–33 with confirmed health — are screened at the clinic before they enter the program.

The protocol includes the preparation of the recipient’s endometrium with hormones and the procedure with the donated eggs. All stages take place at our clinic under medical supervision, including fertilization by ICSI and embryo culture in the laboratory.

The program with fresh donor eggs costs €6,000 without medication and tests and €9,500 with them; the program with ten frozen donor eggs costs €7,000 or €8,000 respectively. The price includes the stages of the procedure and one embryo transfer. How the donor is chosen and the conditions of the program are described on the egg donation page.

Planning the trip

Logistics and coordination of treatment in Georgia

IVF in Georgia requires advance planning of the trip and the stay in the country. At GI Rimon we coordinate the whole process, to make the organization easier from your first contact to the completion of the procedure. The first treatment usually starts within three months of the first contact, which leaves time to arrange the trip and the documents.

Our team helps with the preparation and translation of the required medical documents. The stay is usually two to three weeks, depending on the protocol and the body’s response to ovarian stimulation. Batumi has its own international airport, and there are short flights from most European hubs.

We are also happy to recommend accommodation in Batumi near the clinic. Our English- and Hebrew-speaking team is available for advice and support during your stay in Georgia, including questions of general health during IVF treatment.

Usually one; sometimes two, depending on age and embryo quality. The decision is made by the doctor together with the patient. The remaining embryos are frozen.

A blood pregnancy test is done about two weeks after the transfer. The next step — an additional transfer (€1,500) or another program — is decided together after the result.

Which medication will I receive and how much does it cost?

Ovarian stimulation uses gonadotropins (FSH and LH) for about ten days. In the comprehensive program (€7,500) the medication and pre-stimulation tests are included; in the basic program (€4,000) you can buy them at home.

Is IVF painful?

Egg retrieval is performed under short anesthesia (20–30 minutes); the transfer to the uterus is short and does not require anesthesia. The injections during stimulation are subcutaneous.

Can eggs be frozen?
