2. The expertise of the doctor and the teamFertility specialists require years of specialized training, are highly experienced, and have a team of medical scientists who specialize in the management of embryos and reproductive cells. 

3. Expensive drugs and hormonesStimulating ovulation requires several hormones, most of which are imported from abroad and are highly expensive, costing around THB 30,000-100,000 per treatment cycle.
