Hi everyone. I am 32 and my husband is 47. We have been trying for a baby for 6 months already. Taking into considerations that I am in my 30's and my husband in his 40's, we decided not to wait for long because seeking treatment. Just want to find out does anyone know how much fertility tests and treatment costs in Hong Kong? Or i am happy to hear from anyone who can give me advice on what to do because i am feeling so depressed that i am still not pregnant yet.

I'm sorry but I'm not sure about the costs. But I would recommend you make an appt with Dr Derek Lo, he specialises in Fertility Treatment and perhaps you can do a few scans with him to determine your cycle etc. His consultations are reasonable - think he may have a package too.

One of my friends tried it out earlier.
Private doctor costs them $9000 per try, not 100%
Your doctor could possibly refer you to gov't hospital. However, not everyone would be accepted for such treatment. Will try out 3 times only. if still failed, you have to go for private then.
not sure exact cost, definitely far more cheaper than private dr.

Thanks salami! and RAni! I really appreciate it. I will give it another try till 9 months, after that, maybe i will need to see a doctor about it. By the way, could i ask for your advice? my period is one day overdue, my breasts are sore ( the kind of soreness you get prior to menstrution). I did a pregnancy test and it was negative after 10 mins. After an hour or so, i went back to see it and saw a very faint red line. Does that mean i am pregnant, or not? is reading after 1 hour still count? What do you think?

U can find his details under the 'womens clinic' or if u need me to gv it to u let me know. its just that i dont hv my fone book on hand right now.

All the Best
