Geez, this is getting expensive

LuckyH · January 2010

This cycle, I have a price range of $1,067 to $2,373. That's for all the drugs, IUI, u/s, b/w, etc... The difference is in how much of the stimming drugs I need and we won't know until I get into it. I know it's not as much as some of you are having to pay, but I'm whining because babies are supposed to be made for free. Crying

Isn't there a website or something with donated meds?

All of this and I have cramps. It's totally unfair.

Effing endo, PCOS, morphology.

Tell me about it...donor background and medical info/photo/sample and shipping is $600-700 PER sample...1 sample is good for 1 IUI. My RE charges $210 per us which I get 2 or 3, and it's $310 for the IUI, trigger shot is $100 and the Clomid is about $40. It is crazy

and now I have to do it all over again....this blows!

Sorry for the duplicate post...

Hi! There is a bumpie/nestie who runs an OOP system on here. I forget her name, but you can look into some posts on the Trouble TTC board. Basically, bumpies/nesties donate their meds and people can email this bumpie to see what the supply is and purchase from that supply. I will dig around and see what else I can find. Also, if you go check out other forums, i.e. soulcysters.com or others, they may have people who donate meds as well. Do a Google search. I will post back if I find any more info. Good luck!!

OK, found this while searching the Trouble TTC board:

"To reach the OOPmeds send an email to oopmeds@yahoo.com and include the meds you have, the quantity and expiration dates." I believe it's the same email address for those who are looking for meds as well, not just those donating. Give it a shot and let me know if it works!!

Thanks! I'll send an email.

Yeah I know, with a "safety net" of extra money (incase i need more u/s or drugs) I am needing to save up about $2000 for my injectables cycle. (and I'm unemployed =( )

How is this for mind boggling... I just got a ledger from my RE with my entire treatment history and what I have paid. Thank the good Lord for my insurance because total charges for my year of treatment is $25 000 withOUT meds every cycle. I paid 50% of that OOP. I nearly fell over. AND we only did ovulation induction with TI. Not even any IUI's or IVF's in there.

I am 100% with you on the cost. It's disgusting that we have to pay so much when it is supposed to happen for free... or at the very least the cost of a cheap bottle of wine.

You know what is even more sick (in my mind at least)?!?!

That where I am the government will fund abortions! Even without a good medical reason, apparently "I was stupid and got knocked up and don't want it or to have it and place it for adoption" is a good enough reason for them to fund an abortion. Yet we get NO help with fertility treatments for people who really want children!

#%^#^^$%$^#% <- me swearing

Sorry.. it just makes me so mad!

Geez, this is getting expensive
