FAQ

What specific IVF treatments are you seeking?
We are undergoing IVF with ICSI, AH, PGS, and FET.

What type of infertility do you suffer from? 
We suffer from male-factor infertility. If you are curious to know more about this, please feel free to contact me.

How did you find out you needed IVF?
When I spoke to my OB/GYN about wanting to start a family, due to our medical histories, she suggested my husband have a SA done with his urologist. The urologist ordered the SA and some further testing, which gave us our diagnosis.

Where do you live?
We live in a mountain town in the southwestern United States.

How old are you?

As of 2016, David is 32 and I am 31.

Where are you seeking fertility treatment?
We are seeking treatment at a clinic in the northeast. The reason we have gone out of state is because the closest fertility clinics in our state are over 3 hours away. We have family who live near this particular clinic, and due to my availability in the summer, it makes sense for me to stay with my family and go to this particular clinic.

Does your insurance cover infertility treatments? If not, how are you financing your treatment?
Unfortunately, no. We are financing this out of pocket with the generous help of some family members. Thankfully, we qualify for a discount program with the clinic we are using.

Why don't you adopt?
While we think adoption is wonderful, and have many friends who have adopted or are adopting, we currently feel led to pursue the IVF route first. This does not mean we may not consider adoption in the future.

Can I donate to your IVF fund? 
Yes! Since we financing this on our own, and would like to pay back our generous family members as much as possible, we would greatly appreciate your donation. Please visit the donations page for more information on how you can contribute.
