...this is a good thing, right? In a lot of ways, yes. Not all women must go through 13 IVF trials before they succeed, but most women undergo multiple attempts, each of which can cost $5,000. Fischel's procedure runs an extra $2,750 or so - but paying a premium price once is easily cheaper than paying the lower price over and over.
