My partner and I are 34 year old same sex women who have been trying for 13 months with a known donor, we have seen his sperm analysis, bloods etc and it's better than expected, he is very fit and healthy. Recently we asked for fertility assistance as my partner has endometriosis (all fertility bloods are normal) and have applied and been rejected for CCG funding for both IUI and IVF. They want us to spend £8000 out of pocket on 4 IUI's with low success rates to be able to reapply for funding for IVF. We have no savings. Well we have rainy day savings for things like car services and house maintenance but not £6-8000 for IVF. We also have not so stellar credit due to late payments and overdrafts etc etc we both have good jobs in the NHS and our credit is recovering but it's recovering very slowly.
Anyone know of any cheap IVF packages or fertility centres that have payment plans for poor credit couples? All of our fertility bloods came back perfect, we have been told that my partners progesterone is low and that endo maybe affecting conception but they were very heavy on the "maybe". We have been given no treatment for the low progesterone because it was only borderline low. We have been at this whole thing for 13 months and we are at breaking point emotionally because fertility wise we are fine it's timing and donor sperm we need help with. We honestly thought we would have our first child in the oven by now.
