Frequently Asked Questions
Have a question? Our support team is here to guide you through each step of your treatment journey with personal care and attention.Can Medicana treat patients who have already failed IVF cycles elsewhere?
Yes. Many international patients at Medicana have had unsuccessful cycles at clinics in the UK, Europe, or the Gulf. The team reviews all previous records and adapts the protocol accordingly. For repeated implantation failure, PGT-A and assisted hatching are commonly added. For poor responders, natural or minimal stimulation IVF is an option. Patients with severe male factor infertility and recurrent pregnancy loss are treated as standard.
Does Medicana review my fertility reports before I travel?
Yes. Send your existing fertility reports to My 1Health before travelling, at no cost and with no commitment to book. Documents to send: semen analysis results; hormone blood tests (FSH, AMH, LH, E2, TSH, prolactin); hysterosalpingography or uterine ultrasound reports; records of any previous IVF treatment; genetic test results if applicable. The specialist team confirms the recommended protocol and a written cost estimate.
How do I contact the international patient team for IVF at Medicana in Turkey?
IVF treatment coordination at Medicana is managed through My 1Health's dedicated patient support team, available 24/7. WhatsApp: +1 718 550 0880. Telephone: +1 718 550 0880. Email: [email protected]. The team arranges video consultations with fertility specialists, shares your reports with the clinical team, provides written cost estimates, and coordinates your full travel itinerary before you commit to travelling.
How long do I need to stay in Turkey for IVF at Medicana?
Most international patients stay 15 to 20 days for a complete IVF cycle. Typical timeline: days 1 to 12 ovarian stimulation with monitoring ultrasounds every 2 to 3 days; day 34 to 36 after trigger egg retrieval (30-minute procedure under sedation); days 1 to 5 after retrieval embryo culture in the laboratory; day 5 blastocyst transfer or embryo freezing; day 12 to 14 post-transfer pregnancy blood test. Some patients begin stimulation injections at home before travelling, shortening the in-Turkey stay.
Is IVF in Turkey regulated and safe for international patients?
IVF in Turkey is regulated by the Turkish Ministry of Health. Medicana International Istanbul, Bahcelievler, and Camlica hospitals each hold JCI accreditation. Turkish IVF law permits treatment using each couple's own eggs and sperm. Egg donation, sperm donation, and embryo donation are not legally permitted. PGT-A and PGT-M testing are allowed for medical reasons. Sex selection for non-medical reasons is not permitted. International patients from the UK, Europe, the USA, and the Gulf regularly travel to Medicana for IVF, with costs 50 to 70% lower than in Western European countries.
What does the IVF package at Medicana include and what costs extra?
The IVF package is priced at $3,000 and includes egg retrieval, ICSI, and first embryo transfer; sperm preparation, embryo culture, and routine blood tests for both partners; sperm analysis and embryo freezing with one year of storage. Additional costs: medications $1,200 to $1,500; TESA $950; Micro-TESE $1,350; PGT-A genetic testing $380 per embryo; sperm freezing and storage $650. A standard cycle including medications typically totals $4,200 to $4,500, compared to 8,000 to 14,000 GBP in the UK.
What is the IVF success rate at Medicana Health Group?
For women under 35 with good ovarian reserve, the pregnancy rate after embryo transfer at Medicana is 55 to 60%. For women over 40, rates are approximately 40% per cycle. Success rates improve with day 5 blastocyst transfer, which is Medicana's standard approach, and with PGT-A chromosome screening. With 1,000+ IVF and ICSI cycles annually, Medicana's embryology laboratory has consistent outcome data across a wide range of patient profiles.
