At Sydney IVF, we know that comparing costs of treatment at different centres can be confusing. An accounts representative will discuss with you what you can expect to pay based on the treatment you are having and your private health insurance coverage.

Fees for PGD PCR cycle
Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a method of amplifying a small piece of genetic material to get enough of it to examine. A single cell taken from an embryo can be tested in this way for a particular disease. The most common PCR test we do is for cystic fibrosis, but Sydney IVF has actually tested for over 100 different diseases .

Fees for PGD translocation cycle
Chromosomes occur in pairs in all cells except sperm and eggs. If part of one chromosome is found connected to a completely different chromosome it's "translocated". For that person there is no net gain or loss of genetic material, so the translocation is "balanced" and there is no problem. But when that person makes eggs or sperm, some of these will have too much or too little genetic material. The same will be true for an embryo that results. The chromosomal translocation will then be "unbalanced" and the embryo will sooner or later usually result in a miscarriage.
