The cost of IVF?

I was thinking that an IVF treatment would be mildly expensive?
How many attempt does the initial payment cover?
Surely a minimum of two implantations, 4, 5?
Would it not be to the treating doctor's advantage if several attempts failed?
The more treatments, the more money it would cost.
Has any sweep had a successful IVF treatment?

My ex and I had to pay every cent. No insurance cover and no government subsidies. 4 IVF cycles did not work..went up to egg donor. Last of four attempts worked. but it ruined my relationship with her and she rejected me when she found out she was finally pregnant. I stayed until a yr after birth and left to end dv and abuse at me and our daughter.

@zonavar68 That is so sad to hear.
Any idea why she rejected you once she became pregnant? You do not have to answer if too painful.

@Gusman because she wanted a baby very badly and decided to treat my as just a sperm donor and money source she's a narcissist control freak but relationship was very good until the IVF stuff caused arguments because of the cost. We started trying early 2016 and it took a full year to be successful at the last fertilised donor egg

@zonavar68 Sad, did you have enough personal finances to start again without being under too much financial stress?

@Gusman I had some savings that were all used to set up renting my own house. Ex owns her place outright. I have a room here for my daughter when she stays over
