Life is not fair. One good friend of mine has five children to 38 years, not knowing how to put them on their feet and stable bi years trying to arrange a personal life with a new man (using to strengthen marriage next next child). And the other - waiting for a long time a single. He waited married, to equip the family nest, planned out, even for a child... and froze in anticipation of a stork. But as the results of analyzes, waiting in vain: his mother become the traditional way it is not necessary. Infertility as a sword of Damocles hanging over the happiness of her home.
Remarque: According to official statistics in Ukraine is infertile, every third couple.
When the sentence is signed
Such situations (each, of course, had its own nuances and reasons) among my many friends. Each family out of the situation in their own way. Some dare to adopt foster children, but when faced with a completely incomprehensible to the human mind the bureaucracy (It turns out, today, every couple wants to take the baby to the family... to find him myself!), I refused, before reaching finish. Those who still overcame obstacles to become parents, faced with problems in the form of disease (in fact for Adoption basically give sick children), resistance relatives are not willing to accept "foreign blood" and t. d.
The second half of friends (in his youth did not seem to think about infertility, so when faced with this child-bearing age, just going through the shock) - chose a different path. Namely: IVF - in vitro fertilization. The essence of the procedure is that fertilization occurs outside the woman's body (in vitro), and later the embryo is transferred into the uterus.
Test tube baby
If you think that their way was easier than those who chose adoption, is deeply mistaken. Problems and this choice was a lot. First, the expectation of a sentence or the announcement of hope for salvation from the doctors, because in infertile couple can be as a man and a woman. Representatives of the stronger sex does not like to talk about it, but the causes of infertility in them, as a rule, insufficient sperm count and reduced mobility.
And there's such a thing as immunologic incompatibility couples where the woman's body does not perceive the sperm of the man, producing specific antibodies. And that's not counting the causes of "female nature": untimely and inferiority of the maturation of the dominant follicle, and the impossibility of its exit from the ovary (e.g., due to inflammation of female sexual authorities); polycystic ovarian disease, ileus tubes, etc..
Secondly, the financial side of the issue. The cost of IVF is not only carrying out the procedure itself, but also the study of the causes of infertility, regular tests and... the constant attempts. A familiar pair, Sergey and Natalia, made five attempts to become parents and thus spent is about 10 thousand dollars. In another family, Oleg and Anna, all came from the first attempt - Now baby Alinka already in full crawls around the house. And happy parents paid "Stork" of a private clinic 2.5 thousand. dollars.
How much will it cost this procedure for each individual family, none of the doctors could not tell right away. Call, of course, approximate cost, which definitely will not be the final figure in the article costs. Nevertheless, the majority of infertile couples, it does not stop: they go for IVF, collecting all the money by taking loans from banks because they do not stop dreaming about the baby.
If you too want to do IVF, but do not know where to begin - watch for our articles on "Kolobok". A series of materials from the special project "Waiting for the Stork" tell all: can we do today for free IVF in Ukraine, under which health indicators may conduct this procedure, prices and more more.
