Does anyone have any experience of Lesbians with fertility problems being able to access IVF on the NHS? We have been trying IUI for the past year and our have now confirmed that my partner is releasing eggs before they are mature enough to be fertilised. Therefore they have recommended IVF.
We want to explore getting this funded on the NHS - has anyone got any experience of this? We have sperm already purchased and frozen at the clinic. We are based in Worthing, West Sussex. The guidelines on the CCG do not mention same sex couples.
I know that funding for same sex couples is generally not available, but wondered if it changes if there is a known problem rather than just needing donor insemination.
Thanks for your help.......
