What Does IVF Cost in Solapur? A Transparent Guide

IVF at Shobha IVF starts from ₹2 lakh per cycle. Here's exactly what that includes, what can change it, and how to get an honest, itemised quote — no hidden charges.

One of the first — and most stressful — questions couples ask is simply: what will IVF cost? Too often the answer is a vague "it depends," which makes it impossible to plan. So let's be direct. At Shobha IVF in Solapur, a complete IVF cycle starts from about ₹2 lakh, and IVF with ICSI from about ₹2.25 lakh. These are honest starting figures, and your exact, itemised estimate is confirmed after your first consultation.

It helps to understand what a cycle fee actually covers. A standard IVF cycle includes your treatment planning, ovarian stimulation monitoring (the scans and blood tests during the cycle), egg retrieval under sedation, fertilisation in the laboratory, embryo culture, and a transfer. What sits outside the base cycle — and is always quoted separately and transparently — includes your stimulation medication, add-ons such as ICSI, blastocyst culture, embryo freezing or genetic testing (PGT), and any donor or surrogacy programme.

Why does the final number vary between couples? The single biggest variable is medication. Stimulation drugs are a large share of the cost, and the dose depends on your age and ovarian reserve — two women can follow the same protocol and need quite different amounts. The second is the lab work your diagnosis calls for: ICSI is commonly advised for male-factor infertility, while PGT or assisted hatching are added only when they genuinely improve your odds. Finally, some couples conceive in one cycle and others need more than one, or a frozen embryo transfer from the same egg collection.

A frozen embryo transfer (FET) — using an embryo frozen from an earlier cycle — is much less expensive than a fresh cycle, typically ₹30,000 to ₹50,000, because it skips stimulation and egg retrieval. This is one reason our routine freeze-all approach can make good financial as well as clinical sense: a single egg collection may give you more than one chance at pregnancy.

Be cautious of any clinic quoting a price that sounds too low to be real. Sometimes the headline figure excludes medication, ICSI or freezing, and the true cost climbs steeply once treatment begins. We'd rather give you a complete, realistic number up front. Before you start, you receive a written estimate covering consultations, investigations, medication, the procedure and lab work — so there are no surprises.

Many of the families we treat travel to Solapur from across Maharashtra and northern Karnataka — Kalaburagi (Gulbarga), Vijayapura, Bidar, Belgaum and beyond. If you're travelling, you can begin with a phone or WhatsApp consultation, share previous reports, and plan an efficient visit so you spend minimal time away from home. We're always happy to talk through costs before you make the trip.

Cost matters, but it shouldn't be the only lens. What you're really paying for is a well-run laboratory, an experienced team, and outcomes you can trust — at Shobha IVF, a 90.6% beta-hCG positive rate and a roughly 72% live-birth rate per transfer. The most useful next step is a consultation: a clear, personalised plan and an exact, no-obligation quote you can actually plan around.
