NHS is cheapest in that if your council approves you then you'll get it for free...otherwise it all depends where you live and what sort of clinic you're looking for. Some clinics are like conveyor belts where they are really busy and have great statistics but you don't get that personal touch and others are quieter and more personable. You'll have to decide which clinic you're after...best if luck 🍀

Hi, like #Fingerscrossed38 says check if you can get it on the NHS. We couldn’t as the are we live in caps all treatment at 35 yrs, although we got the initial investigations, hy-cosy, blood tests and a few scans free. For the actual IVF we went to a clinic in Czech Republic. Which was less than half the cost we were quoted in the UK. Others on here have been to Spain, Cyprus, Greece and various other countries for theirs. There is no combined list of costs for all clinics so you need to have at least investigations in the UK to find out what your problems might be, then look around for the best clinic that offers what you need. Good luck 🤞
