Patients who need broader diagnostic evaluation, donor egg, gestational carrier services, or more complex fertility care may be better served by Spring Fertility.
If you are considering egg freezing, Open Fertility’s Egg Freezing Calculator can help you explore estimated outcomes based on your age and the number of eggs you may freeze.
Who Is Open Fertility Designed For?
Open Fertility was designed for patients with relatively straightforward medical histories who are ready to pursue IVF or egg freezing through a focused, team-based care model.
Open may be a good fit for patients who:
- Are ready to pursue IVF or egg freezing
- Meet Open’s clinical eligibility criteria
- Do not require the full range of complex reproductive services
- Value transparent pricing and a streamlined treatment experience
- Are comfortable with a team-based model in which different clinicians support different stages of care
Not every patient will be a fit for Open, and that is intentional. Patients whose needs fall outside Open’s model may be referred to Spring Fertility for broader or more complex care.
How Much Does Fertility Treatment Cost?
Cost is an important part of choosing fertility care, but comparing clinics based only on a headline price can be misleading.
When comparing treatment options, ask what is included in the quoted price and what may be billed separately, including:
- Monitoring bloodwork and ultrasounds
- Anesthesia
- Egg retrieval
- Fertilization and embryo culture
- ICSI, if applicable
- PGT, if applicable
- Embryo cryopreservation
- Storage
- Embryo transfer
- Medications
If you have fertility insurance benefits, compare your actual out-of-pocket cost with available self-pay options. Deductibles, coinsurance, treatment limits, medication coverage, and remaining benefits can all affect what you ultimately pay.
For some patients, self-pay may be simpler, more predictable, or more affordable. For others, insurance may still be the better option.

What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your first visit is designed to help your care team understand your medical history, reproductive goals, and whether Open is an appropriate fit.
Depending on your treatment pathway, your evaluation may include:
- A review of your medical and reproductive history
- Bloodwork relevant to treatment planning
- A transvaginal ultrasound and antral follicle count
- A discussion of treatment options and next steps
At Open, testing is performed as part of an IVF or egg-freezing treatment pathway rather than as a standalone fertility-testing service.
Your care team will review what the evaluation means for your treatment plan and help you understand the expected process, timeline, and financial considerations before you begin.

- What testing is required as part of my treatment pathway?
- Who will manage my monitoring and ongoing care?

- What happens if my needs become more complex?
