If you could take a moment to sign this petition. For some lucky ladies that get 3 rounds of IVF because you your postcode, which is amazing of course, there are some ladies who only get 1 round and personally I do not believe that it is fair just because of where you live.
my goodness not fair at all. I was told that NHS IVF treatment is FREE for under 40s irrespective of your postcode. I lived in Cambridgeshire and later moved to Norfolk. I was given two rounds free, though both of them failed. I was 37 then had the last one at 39, I postponed it due to my studies. It's sad that some people got three or two rounds of ivf while some got one or nothing at all. God will make a way.
It’s frustrating alright, I tried to fight it with all the NICE guidelines etc and the fact that I had been going to the doctors for 2 years previously to try and sort this out and get referred but it was pointless.
I ended up going private because I couldn't not try but now we’re in a huge amount of debt which is just added stress to the situation and not what you need hanging over you when trying to start a family. But hopefully I won’t care in the end because we will get our family 🤞🏻
Have signed this as it is a disgrace, everyone should have the same. So unfair that it depends on where you live ! In Aberdeen, Scotland we get 3 goes, fortunately I was lucky and worked first time. However my son is 3 now and have spent 15k now trying to get his brother or sister, my tubes are blocked so no hope of a natural miracle. I read somewhere on Northern Ireland even if you have one child you get one free go for the second which is wonderful. I feel am being penalised for simply trying to complete my family. IVF is so good when it works but so unfair when it doesn’t 😕
