I am interested to know if anyone here has had IVF treatments in Mexico or done any research about those clinics.

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Lindsay

I'd be interested, too, since I'm in Texas as well.  did you ever check out FCSA?

Hi ladies -- there's a woman on the TTCYFC6+ board who did IVF in Mexico. You might want to post your message over there too.

IUI #3 (Injectables) 5/09 - BFN
IVF #1 (EPP Antagonist Protocol) 6/09. 15 days of high stimming, just one follie. Egg retrieved, beautiful HIP 8-cell, grade 1 embie at 3-day transfer. BFN
BFP July 2009 - a shocker of a natural pregnancy. Great betas, perfect 8-week u/s. At first OB appt on 9/9/09, found out there was no longer a h/b. D&E on 9/11/09. Chromosomal analysis inconclusive, assuming chromosomal issues again.
Excisional breast biopsy for atypical hyperplastic cells found on earlier biopsy - 9/24/09. Results negative (the good kind of negative).

I personally would not do any medical procedure in Mexico.  I have been in their hospital there on spring break and it was a trash pit.   ANd not like we do things here.  THat would be scary to me.   Plus if something went wrong for any reason and you are in another country that is not KNOWN for their medical expertise.   I would do Europe before Mexico.

My story: Trying for 4 years, One miscarraige, clomid 4 months, 2 IUI BFN , one IVF that was cancelled last minute switched to IUI right before Retirval date BFN, IVF#2 was BFN    (Endometrious, poor eggs and decent sperm)

I have done research on that clinic and a few more. I am still looking at all of the possibilities.  I did get an email today from ARC and it explains the prices of their pre- negotiated packages and it also helps you get financing.  I have requested information from Dallas/FT.Worth and San Antonio.  I have emailed a Lubbock clinic and they want you to call so you can get a packet.  I have eliminated an Irving clinic not completely but It is not at the top of my list even though it is alittle less. I will research and see if researching more on the Irving clinic is necessary before I decide to completely weed it out. They do not do TESA, they have to have the sperm sent in and I am not sure that that is great in the "sperm world".  Please let me know if you have any information about the San Antonio clinic.

 

Thanks,

Lindsay
