Frequently asked questions about having fertility treatment abroad
I’m female and in a relationship with another female, can we have treatment everywhere in Europe?
Unfortunately not. Which is ridiculous, I know. Some countries legally cannot offer you treatment unless you are in a male and female couple. Some countries are more liberal than others, and this is the same for clinics too, usually depending on their location.
I'm a single female, can I have treatment abroad? It's a similar answer to the last question.
It depends on the country, so make sure you check this out in advance of starting to research the best fertility clinics abroad.
I am a person of colour. Can I go anywhere abroad to get an egg donor to match to my ethnicity?
It will depend on where you go in terms of country, and then looking at the clinics' availability of donors that match your requirements
Are clinics abroad COVID-safe?
Some fertility clinics abroad are state-of-the-art, world-class, medically clean clinics that comply with the required regulations to keep us safe and from things like Covid-19 and infection control in general.
Are there waiting lists for treatment at fertility clinics abroad?
At some clinics abroad, there are no waiting times for treatment and it can also depend on the type of treatment, like egg and sperm donation and time of year, as well in terms of demand.
Can I get my fertility medication organised from my home country, or do I have to go abroad to get my IVF medication?
You can go abroad to get your medication, but you don't have to, as in lots of countries you can get medication through specialist pharmacies or delivered to your door.
