How Much Does IVF Cost in Denver?

By CNY Fertility Updated on
How Much Does IVF Cost in Denver?

For people in the Denver area exploring in vitro fertilization (IVF), one of the first questions that often comes up is: How much does IVF cost in Denver?

As you’ll soon discover, the answer varies widely. It will ultimately depend on the clinic, what’s included in the quoted price, and what additional steps you might need based on individual medical needs. 

Between clinic fees, fertility medications, common add-ons like frozen embryo transfer (FET) and preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), and the potential need for multiple cycles, calculating the true cost of IVF in Denver can feel complex.

This guide breaks down what you’re actually paying for, highlights fees that are often separate from base pricing, and explains how Denver patients can access more affordable IVF options without sacrificing quality.

Quick Answer: What Does IVF Cost in Denver?

The typical cost of a single IVF cycle in Denver ranges from $17,000 to $30,000, depending on the fertility clinic and whether key services are included.

Many Denver clinics promote a low “base price” that excludes essential components such as:

  • Fertility medications
  • ICSI
  • Assisted hatching
  • Embryo freezing
  • Anesthesia
  • Storage fees

By comparison, CNY Fertility offers comprehensive IVF packages that include many commonly excluded services for $7,295–$12,000.

This makes CNY one of the most affordable IVF options for Colorado residents.

Why IVF Prices Vary in Denver

Most Denver clinics charge between $17,000 and $30,000 per cycle, while the same full-service cycle at CNY Fertility typically costs $7,295–$12,000.  So, what accounts for these broad cost ranges? 

Price differences are influenced by:

  • Medication type and dosing
  • Clinic pricing models
  • Insurance coverage
  • Add-on procedures
  • number of cycles needed to “bring home a baby” 
  • Location and operational costs

Below, we’ll dive deeper into the biggest cost contributors.

1. Clinic Choice

Your choice of clinic is often the largest factor in total cost.

Most Denver clinics operate in high-cost medical markets where overhead and patient volume influence pricing. There is no standardized pricing across IVF clinics, meaning two clinics may charge significantly different prices for the same service.

2. IVF Medications: $2,000–$7,000

Medications are often billed separately and can dramatically increase the total IVF cost.

Medication pricing depends on:

CNY Fertility partners with pharmacies to offer pricing that helps Colorado patients save $2,000–$3,000 per cycle.

3. Lab Procedures and Add-Ons

Many Denver clinics charge additional fees for procedures that help make IVF more successful. 

ServiceDenver AverageCNY FertilityNotes
ICSI~$1,500IncludedStandard at CNY
Assisted Hatching~$500–$1,500IncludedStandard at CNY
Embryo Cryopreservation~$1,000–$2,000IncludedFirst-year storage ~$600

These services can add thousands to the final price. At CNY, they’re bundled into the base IVF package.

4. Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) Cost in Denver

If embryos are frozen for later use, an FET cycle will be required.

  • Denver clinics: $4,000–$6,000
  • CNY Fertility: Around $1,940

Common reasons for FET:

  • Embryos tested with PGT for genetic abnormalities and/or to choose gender.
  • Freeze-all cycles (where the plan is that all embryos created will be frozen for future FET). 
  • To give more time for the uterine lining to be optimized for implantation.
  • A future transfer of extra embryos after a previously successful IVF cycle.

Monitoring included?Often extraIncluded
Embryo storage feesTypically addedFirst-year storage ~$600

5. PGT Cost in Denver

Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) evaluates embryos for chromosomal abnormalities before transfer.

  • Denver cost: $4,000–$6,000 (+ FET)

  • CNY Fertility: $2,000–$3,000 (FET ~$945 when bundled)

6. Donor Eggs and Donor Sperm

Donor eggs significantly increase IVF cost.

  • Denver donor egg cycle: $18,000–$35,000+
  • CNY Fertility donor egg package: $9,453, which includes:

Donor sperm typically ranges $400–$2,000 per vial.

Donor Egg Cycle$18,000–$35,000+$9,453 all-inclusive
Donor Sperm$400–$2,000 per vialSimilar (bank-dependent)

7. Insurance Coverage in Colorado

Colorado has enacted a fertility insurance mandate, but not all employers are required to comply. Benefits vary widely.

Coverage may or may not apply to:

  • Diagnostic testing
  • IVF cycles
  • Medications
  • Monitoring
  • FET
  • Storage fees

Contact your provider directly to verify your plan’s fertility coverage details.

8. Clinic Location

Prices are generally highest in dense metro areas like Denver, Boulder, and Colorado Springs. Clinics outside these areas may offer lower pricing, though availability is limited.

Fortunately, for Denver patients, CNY Fertility has a full-service clinic in Colorado Springs and a monitoring office in Denver, making it convenient for Denver residents to take advantage of CNY Fertility’s significant cost savings. 

9. Your Personalized Treatment Plan

Your treatment plan depends on:

These factors influence the various services you may need, and most critically, how many IVF cycles you will likely require before success. 

How Many IVF Cycles Do People Typically Need?

Just over 50% of patients undergo more than one IVF cycle before having a successful pregnancy and birth.

Research suggests the average person completes about 2.3 cycles before a successful live birth.

If each Denver cycle costs $17,000–$30,000, two cycles may total $34,000–$60,000.

At CNY Fertility, two full cycles typically cost $14,000–$23,000, depending on add-ons and medication needs.

Be Cautious With “Base Price” Advertising

Many Denver clinics advertise a low starting price that excludes essentials like:

  • Medications
  • ICSI
  • Embryo freezing
  • Storage
  • Anesthesia

Always request a complete cost breakdown.

CNY Fertility provides transparent pricing and a Cost Calculator to help estimate expenses.
