Trouble TTC

Sharing happy news about IVF funding

Just wanted to share some happy news about IVF funding where I live in Ontario, Canada. The Liberal government had recently announced plans to fund one round of IVF per patient (not the drugs, just the procedure), but this was thrown into doubt when an election was called. Last night the Liberals were re-elected, which means IVF funding in the future is very likely! Yay! Not sure yet if it will be in place by the time I start treatments this fall, but it's still very exciting, and if my first round of IVF doesn't work, it's nice to know that perhaps a second round would be covered.

Official diagnosis: Unexplained IF. I am 32. I have low ovarian reserve (low AMH), and poor egg quality. I've also been diagnosed with mild glandular developmental arrest (lining problems, detected with EFT).

We are using open ID donor sperm. IUIs #1-7=BFN. IVF September 2014 antagonist protocol, 8R,5M,3F, 5 day transfer of 1 morula = BFN. IVF#2 planned for January 2015 (antagonist protocol + HGH).

  • I've been wondering about whether we would wait if it is coming into effect in January 2015... But knowing the government and the likely need to consult with different groups, I am worried it might be delayed. So I'm still thinking of doing IVF in Sept. Would you wait or go ahead with your plans?

    Official diagnosis: Unexplained IF. I am 32. I have low ovarian reserve (low AMH), and poor egg quality. I've also been diagnosed with mild glandular developmental arrest (lining problems, detected with EFT).

    We are using open ID donor sperm. IUIs #1-7=BFN. IVF September 2014 antagonist protocol, 8R,5M,3F, 5 day transfer of 1 morula = BFN. IVF#2 planned for January 2015 (antagonist protocol + HGH).

    I'm in Ontario too and was very excited by this since ivf is definitly a big possibility in our future.
    I agree with pp you never know how long it will take to move something through legislature but you could always ask your REs opinion after they go back to parliament in a few weeks for the budget. Since it was announced before the election and not just a platform promise there's reason to hope it may move quicker but who knows.

    EDD 5/2/14, NMC 9/11/13
    EDD 10/15/14, CP 2/8/14

    IF Diagnosis: PCOS, MFI 

    Current Cycle: 5 mg Femara/1000mg Metformin + TI = BFP, EDD 4/23/15 Please be our RAINBOW

  • I'm getting too impatient to wait. If I can get the process started late summer that's what I'm doing. If I have to do it again then it'll come in handy. I wonder if lots of couples are going to cancel any planned ivf this year because of the new coverage?

  • I'm impatient too lol! I think we're in the same boat. I think many people will wait till January. It's so much money
