Hi girls,
I am tryingto do some reasearch into the cost of the medications for one cyle of IVF and I would appreciate any info that ladies in the USA that are paying for their services out of their own pockets. If any ladies can recommend a specific pharmacy to order the meds from to save money, or any deals that you have found.
A quick background about me, My DH has a low sperm count as a result of a 14 year old vasectomy that he got reversed. I also just recently had a hsyteroscopy to remove a polyp from my uterus and a laparascopy that made sure that my second fallopian tube was open because we thought it might of been blocked, my 2 tubes are open though.
But my DR discovered that I have endometriosis, my DR removed the Endo but he also found scar tissue and removed that as well. I have a clean bill of health for now and we are ready to move on with our TTC plans. The only problem is that the Endo and the scar tissue can grow back over time, so I feel like my window for a successful pregnancy is limited. My DR said I have about 1 year before the Endo can grow back and there is a 5 to 10% chance every year it can grow back. I do have a mild case of Endo though.
So right now my DH & me are considering IVF with ICSI and we may not try IUI next just because of the low success rates with IUI and the fact that if we pay for IUI it takes awa from our savings and ability to be able to afford to do the IVF with ICSI.
