• Investigations and screening tests prior to starting treatment, such as AMH, viral screening tests, semen analysis, ultrasound scans, genetic screening tests or any investigations for implantation failure
• Any medications for the treatment cycles or to maintain an ongoing pregnancy
• Future storage and use of any frozen embryos created within the multi-cycle package which have not been used within the agreed two-year period of the scheme or have not been used prior to the patient having a live birth as a result of the scheme.

All of the additional procedures listed below are not covered in this programme but may be added to cycles at extra cost as per our Fee schedules.

• The cost of donor sperm
• Any additional laboratory procedures such as artificial oocyte activation, PGT-A
• Surgical sperm retrieval
• Semen or egg freezing and storage
• Endometrial biopsy or endometrial scratch
• Sedation for embryo transfer

Duration of the Multi-Cycle Programme

The duration of the programme is two years from commencement of the first treatment cycle. The Programme comes to an end and no refund is given when;

• A live birth has been achieved
• The end of the two-year period from the commencement of the first treatment cycle

After the two-year period any further treatment (including embryo storage) will then be charged as per the current fee structure.

Payment must be made in full prior to the pre-stimulation scan at the commencement of the first cycle of treatment.

Should IVF be planned, but the decision is made that ICSI is necessary during the duration of the first treatment cycle, including on the day of egg collection, the patient would be required to pay the difference between the ICSI cost and the IVF cost in the multi-cycle scheme.

Cancellation of the cycle

Approximately 5% of IVF cycles are cancelled for under or over-response or because no eggs were collected. Depending on the stage of cancellation you can either leave the programme and be eligible for a refund appropriate to the timing of cancellation as per the ZWAF fee schedule, or stay in the programme and your cancelled cycle will be treated as your first IVF cycle.
