Hi All,
Apologies if there has already been a thread on this, I couldn't find one!
So today we were discharged from our NHS fertility consultant as we are no eligible for NHS funding.
Bit of a back story, I was diagnosed with pretty mild PCOS. My husband did two samples which were originally deemed to be "ok." Therefore for the best part of 3 years I was told the reason we can't conceive is down to my weight - my BMI is 35ish. Fast forward to 6 months ago and a new clinic and it actually turns out my husbands analysis was VERY poor and actually it is down to him as to why we cannot conceive. He retested and it was confirmed today that we will categorically not conceive without help.
We have been advised ICSI is going to be the best course of action for us but obviously it is extremely costly. It is extremely overwhelming too! Has anyone here had ay experience of IVF. How long did the process take, do you have any advice? Is there anything you wish you knew / didn't know?
I am looking into ABC fertility as their prices are exceptionally low. Wondering whether there is a catch!!
