INVETRO

A friend of mine has been trying to concieve for over a year now she has trouble ovulating so she went for fertility drugs they didn't help much then she went for fertility shots they helped her ovulate and they did but she didn't get pg. So they did it a few more times with artificial insemination and still nothing now the only thing left to do is invetro but her and her husband doesn't have the $$ for it since its a little over $15,000 and neither one of their insurance companies cover any part of it.

My question is does anyone know anything else she can try or know of anyplace they can go to and try to get help with the invetro expenses

I have overheard the bookeepers at my dr. office of people taking out loans for it.

Yes, a lot of people take out loans.

There is a program in NY for grants, but you have to make under a certain amt of $$, VERY few people get them, and only a few clinics do it.

there was an article recently in Marie Claire or Glamour magazine about how couples now are going out of the country for their fertility treatments - Israel, Canada.

It said it was a 3rd of the price, even after the expense of travel & hotel.

this isn't the article but I found this
overseas treatment
