Accupuncture is suppose to really help you out to normalize pcos and your cycle. It also helps you get pregnant. It can get costly though. Becuase they prefer to treat you at least once a week @ around $70 per treatment. But people have sworn by it. Also you could try fertilaid its a natural herb vitamin that people have said helps.
what kind of natural herbs would I need? I think would definately be a good idea, and much cheaper. Has anyone had success with the herbs???
My insurance also covers the testing but not the treatments, though they paid to have my tubes reversed after i had them tied and that was a $10,000 bill after the surgery and hospital stay and it was in a different county then I live, go figure. Have you thought about natural herbs?
I 'm in the middle of my first IVF cycle and my insurance did not cover anything....meds or treatment. However, your dr. will probably start you on clomid and metformin before doing iui or ivf. This was covered by my insurance....only a $10 copay. I tried clomid first for two months and felt really crappy on it (I'm sure other people on here would agree) and experienced hair loss. Then I tried letrazole (similar drug to clomid) for one month before deciding to move on to ivf. I didn't get the results that I wanted, but I didn't have any weird side effects on it either! Good luck.
If you have pcos they will probably put you on metformin and clomid. Both drugs are fairly cheap and they should be covered by your insurance.
What just hormones be like? I'm hoping that I wont have to deal with more than that. If they put me on something like clomid what is that going to be like?
My insurance covers infertility tests but not treatments. So, we had to pay for all treatments out of pocket. Your costs will depend on your coverage and on prices your physician charges. Those vary A LOT across physicians.
