How much does IVF cost in Thunder Bay?

Do Thunder Bay fertility clinics require a referral?
It varies by clinic — some accept self-referrals while others require a referral from your family doctor. Check each clinic's intake requirements before booking.
What is the difference between IVF and IUI?
IUI places prepared sperm directly into the uterus and is simpler and less expensive. IVF retrieves eggs, fertilizes them in a lab, and transfers an embryo — a more involved process used for complex cases or after IUI.

Up to four intended parents can be named.
