It really depends on how you respond to the meds...if I recall correctly, on my injectable/iui cycles I used about 12 days of 75 units of gonal -f which ran about $50 per 75 units from Freedom Fertility pharmacy. A lot of PCOSers are able to use low doses like that...but really depends on your specifics.
Hope that helps and good luck

Sorry...just reread and realized you asked about IVF. For my first cycles I used about 150 units of gonal-f for 12 days, actually dropping down on the dose as the cycle progressed...so about $100 a day. The lupron was $200 I think and the trigger was another 40 or so.

My last cycle was a different protocol and based on a difference response I used a lot more gonal f - starting at 150/ day for the first 5 days and then upping to 300/day for another 7 or eight days. I used ganirelix in this cycle too, 4 days worth and I think those were about $50 apiece as well.

Hope that helps.
