Show notes:
Choosing where to have fertility treatment abroad isn't just about costs or suitability of IVF clinics for your needs — it’s about choosing the right country for them too and making the right decision for your health, safety, and family-building future.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing the 5 biggest mistakes I see people make when selecting a country for treatment — and how you can avoid them.
I'll talk about:
-
Why not every country will suit your specific medical needs (and why that's crucial).
-
How healthcare standards abroad can vary wildly — and why it matters.
-
The huge risks of choosing unregulated or unregistered clinics.
-
What you need to know about regulation (or lack of it) for assisted reproductive techniques abroad.
-
How donor conception laws differ by country — and why you need to be clear before you start.
Choosing the wrong country could cost you time, money, and heartache.
Choosing the right one could change everything.
