IUI is expensive. You have to prepare your finances and have a game plan about it. As I've shared in my other post, we used our money from our 13th month pay to pay for the IUI.
Below is a breakdown of our expenses starting from before our IUI cycle even started. In my previous post I mentioned that I haven't had my period for 82 days so my OB prescribed a medicine to jumpstart it, and we'll start from there.
Duphaston - 65/piece x 10 - 650
Follicle monitoring - 1,000/ultrasound x 3 - 3,000
Clomiphene* - 100/piece x 10 - 1,000
Gonal-F - 3,000/shot x 3 - 9,000
HCG Trigger - 3,000/shot x 1 - 3,000
IUI Procedure** - 9,629.76
Professional fee*** - 5,000
Utrogestan - 62/capsule x 15 - 930
Total: 32, 209.76
*This is the generic name. I can't remember the brand I bought, but this was the cheapest in Mercury Cubao at that time, the other one was around 200+
**Our IUI procedure was done in St. Lukes QC in their Advanced Reproductive Care Unit (ARCU)
***Our OB/RE's clinic at St. Lukes QC and her name is Lorelyn Madamba
Hi. Did you conceive? Plano din kc namin mag asawa mag iui.
ReplyDeleteHi Catherine! Sadly our IUI failed. :( On hindsight, maybe we should've had another ultrasound to check if I did ovulate. Or maybe used OPKs to confirm ovulation before doing the IUI.
ReplyDeleteHi Ria. Can you please confirm if iui price with your ob is still the same as of this date. And please guve me contact details ng ob mo so i can inquire na din. Thank you.
Delete🙋 me too I want to know if your ob still has the same rate for IUI, can I have her contact details pra mkapag inquire n kmi. Thanks
DeleteDr. Lorelyn Madamba yung name ng doctor ko that time. We've moved to Iloilo so I haven't consulted her yet. Sa St. Lukes yunh clinic nya. At that time everyday yata sya may clinic
DeleteHi ria magkano gastos mo total
DeleteHad an iui yesterday din. Yup halos the same pa rin ang cost. Sperm washing kami sa st lukes pero the insemination was done sa san juan clinic ni doc.
ReplyDeleteHow much total ng gastos mo?
Deletehow much ung sperm washing?
DeleteMahal poh ba ang iui Masakit poh ba yun
ReplyDeleteSabi kc ng ob ko na referral nya ako para sa iui first time ko poh Dito kc kami sa Samar. Salamat poh :-)
Di naman masakit yung mismong procedure. :) Tsaka depende siguro kung saan ka magpapa-iui tsaka sa fee ng doctor mo.
DeleteHi Ria, I was looking where to buy Gonal F and so fortunate to saw your site. :) 75 IU ba yung shot ng Gonal F mo? Sa OB mo lang ba yun pwedeng bilhin?
ReplyDeleteHi! Yup, 75 IU yung gonal F ko. I think you can also buy it in Mercury although I got mine from my OB. You can call mercury naman to ask if they have it in stock para di masayang yung lakad mo. 😉

DeleteSo around 30-40k ang IUI? Di aabot ng 100k?
ReplyDeleteYup. Hindi sya umabot sa 100k. That's based on the procedures and meds i had to take as mentioned sa blog. Might also depend with your OB if there are any other tests you need to take and yung PF din nya.
ReplyDeleteHi po... planning for IUI here in ILoilo.
ReplyDeleteTanong ko lg po may kilala po kayo or pwede ma refer na OB n magaling po dito sa iloilo.
Hi Hetch! From what I know isa lang fertility specialist here sa iloilo. His name is Dr. Rey Felicisimo Castillo. His clinic is @ Qualimed. Sched nya is mon-Sat except wednesdays. 11-2pm.
DeleteBetter if u text his secretary first to make sure may clinic sya before u visit.
Once pa lang ako nag-pacheck up kasi busy sa work.
