thanks for the information,we have been trying to get pregnancy for more than 8 years now .We have use many methods tru a gynycology but no solution yet, what the doctor say is that the sperm is not going tru,and there is the need to do an operatn,so that the sperm can go tru.

Charlie Saralucy and Amy,

I have read about two treatment centers outside the U.S. that offer IVF treatments for more than half the cost of U.S. pricing. Prices range from about $3400-$8000.

The first one is in the Czech Republic

and the second one I read about in the recent edition of Conceive Magazine. This one is in Japan and uses no drug stimulants before retrieval. They claim to be the busiest and most successful IVF center in the world. Good luck. Keep us posted on yur success stories.

Zainab,

Try using an ovulation predictor kit and make a committment to having intercourse every day during your fertile week. These kits are usually very accurate. I know of a few close friends who recently got pregnant by using these devices. Also, be sure to take your prenatal vitamin every single day with at least 800mcg of folic acid.

After sexual intercourse, relax for at least 15 minutes with your pelvic area elevated.

Look into a zinc supplement for your hubby. Try adding fresh spinach to both of your diets.

Best of luck and please keep me posted on your success story.

Love (and agree with) #15 – don’t make it into a science project! Hard to stick to that though when you’ve been trying for a long time (we’ve been trying 2 years and it’s all about testing and timing now … not very romantic).
