IVF in Bangkok Thailand

What are the success rates for IVF in Bangkok?

Success rates in Bangkok's top clinics are comparable to leading centers in the US and Europe. For women under 35, pregnancy rates per transfer are often between 60% and 75%. Rates naturally decline with age, but advanced technologies like PGT-A help improve outcomes for older patients by ensuring only genetically healthy embryos are transferred.

Is gender selection legal in Thailand?

Gender selection for non-medical reasons (social balancing) is restricted under Thai medical guidelines. However, PGT-A (genetic screening) is widely legal and used to screen embryos for chromosomal abnormalities (aneuploidy) to ensure a healthy baby. While this process does identify the gender of the embryos, the primary medical purpose must be genetic screening for health.

How long do I need to stay in Bangkok?

A full IVF cycle typically requires a stay of 3 to 4 weeks if you do the entire stimulation process in Bangkok. However, many patients start stimulation at home (coordinated with a local doctor) and fly to Bangkok for about 10-14 days for the egg retrieval and embryo transfer.

Can I use an egg donor or surrogate?

Thailand has strict laws regarding third-party reproduction. Commercial surrogacy is banned for foreigners. Egg donation is permitted but highly regulated; donors must be altruistic (unpaid) and meet specific criteria. If you require donor services, it is crucial to consult with the clinic beforehand to understand the current legal landscape and availability for international patients.

Is the technology the same as in the West?

Yes, and often newer. Bangkok clinics invest heavily in the latest equipment to stay competitive. You will find standard use of EmbryoScope (time-lapse incubators), MACS (sperm selection), and NGS (genetic sequencing). The lab environments are certified clean rooms, ensuring optimal conditions for embryo development.

How much does IVF cost in Bangkok?

A standard cycle (stimulation, retrieval, ICSI, transfer) costs between $6,000 and $9,000 USD. This is significantly less than the $15,000 - $25,000 often charged in the US or Australia. The lower cost is due to the lower cost of living and operations in Thailand, not a reduction in medical quality.

What is ICSI?

ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) is a technique where a single sperm is injected directly into an egg to aid fertilization. It is particularly helpful for male-factor infertility. In Bangkok, ICSI is almost always included in the standard IVF package price, unlike in many Western clinics where it is an expensive add-on.

Do the doctors speak English?

Yes. The fertility specialists catering to international patients speak fluent English. Many have completed fellowships or degrees in the United States, UK, or Australia. International hospitals also have dedicated interpretation teams for other languages, ensuring clear communication throughout your treatment.

Can I freeze embryos for later?

Yes. Bangkok clinics use advanced vitrification (flash-freezing) technology, which has a very high survival rate for embryos. You can freeze surplus embryos for future siblings or for a Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) at a later date. This is often recommended if you are doing genetic testing or need to let your body rest after stimulation.

Is it safe to travel after the embryo transfer?

Most doctors recommend resting for 24-48 hours after the transfer before flying. After that, it is generally considered safe to travel. The "two-week wait" before the pregnancy test can be done back home. Your clinic will provide a detailed medical letter for your travel and instructions for any medications you need to carry.
