Clomid for me for 100mg’s, is $67.00. But my work ins, pays half
My hubby’s ins, covers 0 for infertility

Wow, I can’t beleive that it is that much! Target clearly states the retail price and then MY price and the retail price wasn’t more than $30.
Did you shop around to different pharmacies?
Are they giving me some back alley generic?

We usually go through my husband’s insurance – Regence/Regency (the new name for Blue Cross of California). His plan covers 6 Clomid cycles and 6 IUIs.
Looking at our TTC expences made me realize that we really hadn’t spent that much for the first 10 cycles.

My insurance stopped covering Femara in August, at least without a breast cancer diagnosis. So far, that plus Ovidrel have been my biggest ticket items. My RE suggested genetic screenings for Cystic Fibrosis, which both my husband and I had, as it was covered. $100 per, instead of the $700 it would have been.

You have really good insurance. I have really bad insurance. It didnt even cover my emergeny D & C. But my prescriptions are $9 for clomid.

wow I just spent $80 on my 150 mg of clomid…hummm wonder why?
7. November 2009 at 11:07 pm
My ins covers nothing!! So far for this yr we’ve paid – 3 cycles for clomid at $40 each cycle , Ovidrel $150 each cycle , 6 IUI 2 each cycle at $750 and a $15 co pay every visit exp for blood work about 20+ visits so far = $3120. I didn’t know how to shop around and when u go to the RE and get ur protocol everything happens so quick when the process starts and all i can think about is I got to get my meds. I wish is lived by a walmart or target.. and sometimes I wish I lived in Canada

That is great insurance. I have mine through United Healthcare and the paid for almost nothing! The initial diagnostic workups were covered with $30 copays. After that I remember Clomid being $75 and each midcycle ultrasound was $250-$350 each time. When we had to step it up a notch to injectibles, it was all out of pocket. Thank goodness our first injectibles/IUI cycle worked because the total cost was around $4000. So worth it, but I was sweating it just thinking about IVF.

Its the Clomid, its the same price to the other place i got my pills before.Maybe they are different in Canada??????

It’s scary to add it all up isn’t it.
To get our first daughter my husband had a Vasectomy Reversal (which was successful but due to antibodies gave us a very low less than 1% of natural conception) so we did 5 MIFT cycles, pregnant but miscarried on 4th conceived our daughter on 5th: Total out of pocket costs just over $24,000 (AU$)
Trying now for #2 – 10,007 eek and about to fork out $4,000ish tomorrow as I undo my next cycle.
Expensive but so worth it!
8. November 2009 at 10:56 am
Hopefully I don’t “undo” my next cycle… hopefully I “undergo” it !!! and lots and lots more hope its successful!

I recently got aproval from my insurance but they only cover 50% of consultations and test

I just got my clomid prescription filled at Costco (50mg) for 5 days and it was $31. I live in Canada. We don’t pay for ultrasounds or consultations or any other doctor appointments so we are very fortunate. However, we do pay for IUI or IVF and fertility prescriptions, unless covered by insurance.

Gosh I know what you girls mean.. It is so expensive. I did one round of IUI that was over $1,000.00. So right now I ‘m just useing the Blue Blue easy monitor.
