No Hidden Extras

Clinics will display treatment costs in different ways and it can be confusing when comparing fertility treatment prices. Essential Fertility Treatments have no hidden extras and we strive to make our treatments as transparent as possible. Our treatment package prices outline everything that is included. Initial fertility tests and scans are not included in treatment.

Treatment Add Ons

Add-ons are additional parts of fertility treatments. Some clinics may include specific add-ons with their treatment packages, while others charge separately. HFEA, the Human Fertilisation & Embryology Authority, investigates treatment add-ons regularly and assigns them a level with a traffic light system. The traffic-light-rated list of add-ons consists of three colours that indicate whether the evidence, in the form of high-quality RCTs, shows that a treatment add-on is effective at improving the chances of having a baby for someone undergoing fertility treatment. Visit the HFEA website to learn more.

We do not charge for embryo selection add-ons offered as part of your treatment package at Essential Fertility. 

What HFEA Says about add ons
Embryologist, Lydia, working in the lab

Inclusive Add Ons

Treatment 'add-ons' can dramatically increase the base cost of fertility treatment. When comparing treatment costs, it is crucial to check whether the treatment includes specific add-ons or your overall treatment could be significantly more expensive than expected. Essential Fertility treatments are inclusive of the following evidence-based interventions.

  • Time Lapsed Imaging & AI

    Time-Lapse Imaging - including innovative AI (Artificial Intelligence) technology - identifies the optimum embryo to transfer by looking at embryo development with the likelihood of implantation.
  • EmbryoGlue

    EmbryoGlue has been developed to closely resemble the environment in the womb, which can help to encourage successful implantation.
  • Blastocyst Culture

    Blastocyst Culture If you have suitable embryos, they will be cultured to blastocyst stage in our embryology laboratory at no additional charge.
