are you considering IVF using donor sperm? if you are, please be open-minded to what i have to say:
i'm sure your desire for a child is very great, and i'm not trying to discount that at all, but have you considered the life your child will lead? i'd like to say now, that, as the offspring of an anonymous donor, and from the opinions of many more of us (thousands in fact), this choice really might be reconsidered. we live in a constant identity struggle because most of us will never know our fathers, nor our siblings, despite our efforts. this has been a fight for us for probably over 60 years now (i say that only because the oldest of us i know is in their 60s, yet AI has been going on for over a hundred years now). on top of that, it will be a hardship for you as well if you go thru with it. please reconsider, and look further into the situation of us offspring and our struggles. and please, message me back if you would like more information, because i'd be happy to give it to you
if you're not considering donor sperm, good luck! even with this salute to you though, please keep in mind there is always adoption. there are lots of kids out there who already need love.
ps, it's a ton of money. u can tell that from everyone else's answers. like, way up into the thousands.

IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatment; IUI, ICSI and Laparoscopic surgery is very cheap in India. The cost is very low and the medical services are very good in India.
My cousin and her husband got their IVF treatment in India through the Forerunners Healthcare in India and is all praise for this company. She is a known case of PCOS.She is a very happy mother of a baby boy now. She just paid 2500 pounds for the full IVF treatment in India for which she was quoted 8000 pounds in private setup in UK.
Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the newspapers. I have also read about a Chinese couple who planned surrogacy through the Forerunners Healthcare. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery and infertility treatment like IVF, IUI, and ICSI abroad for low price. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery and treatment can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.

My neighbor paid $12,000 for everything and she was lucky because it took the first the time. She delivered her son in August.
Some insurances and/or businesses will pay a portion. My husbands company will pay up to $10,000 for infertility/adoption. It's worth it to ask.
Good luck to you and thank you for reminding those of us who were fortunate enough not to have to worry about this just how lucky we really are.

I am pretty sure it is anywhere from 16,000 to 17,000 dollars, but I am not sure.
