I am looking to come to the US for IVF/PGD later in 2012.
I will be about 35 when we undergo our first attempt. We are located in Australia and looking to have DH sample done here, cryopreserved and sent over to the US (it will be difficult for him to travel at the time of year I want to go) and it looks like it will cost about $900 compared to $1700 for a return flight to the US.
I am concerned, given my age that we won't have any normal XX to transfer (we want to do GSN).
I was wondering, is it possible for me to do the same as DH with ER? I know some ladies have ER and cryopreservation in case their fertility fails them later on.
Could I do a round of IVF here and have my eggs sent over to the US? Then I would not be going all that way to the US only to have no normal XX to tranfer. The cost of IVF in Australia is totally covered by my health insurance which is even better. Could you thaw both DH sample and my eggs and attempt the fertilization. When we know we have some normal XX I could then travel over for the ET... Or am I completely crazy.....?????
I am very much looking forward to your reply.
