Common questions

How much does treatment cost, and will insurance cover it?
Costs vary by treatment — an IUI cycle is illustratively around $1,000–$1,500, while an IVF base cycle is around $13,000–$16,000 plus medications. Washington and many states mandate some coverage, and our financial counselor verifies your specific benefits for free before you commit. You always get a written estimate first, and we’ll review financing, multi-cycle, and grant options with you.
How does using a donor egg or sperm work?
We begin with implications counseling, then help you choose a screened donor — from our program or an agency — with full medical and genetic screening. Treatment then proceeds as IVF or IUI. We coordinate the medical and legal logistics so you can focus on the decision, not the paperwork.
