Hi. I've just signed up whilst looking for a place to ask my questions, so, here goes...
I'm turning 40 in a month, I was engaged to be married this year but the relationship fell apart in January. I have not been able to conceive naturally, I can say I've tried for more than 2 years.
My biological click has been ticking loudly for many years. I've had to face up to the fact that if I want to have a child, I might have to be a single parent. I have signed up to a sperm donation website, there's a lot of choice. The only problem is, I may need ivf, I may need egg/embryo donation as well as finding a sperm donor.
I do not have a lot of money (lost a lot with cancelling my wedding) & I have been looking to see if I am eligible for free NHS treatment? If I can get funding towards sperm donation & treatment at certain clinics free or subsidised?
I feel out of my depth with this.
Does anyone have some advice please? All welcome! Like I said, 40 year old, single, not a lot of money. Have tried naturally, but no joy, although I have yet to have any kind of fertility test - do I get this at GP, privately?? Please help guys. I really just want to be a mum & feel I'm running out of time. Thanks in advance, Rachelleanne
