I am coming to live in London and would like to ask about fertility clinics, medicine, appointments... if doctors are familiar with pcos, all medicines are free or not?

Can you give me steps i should do

Thanks 😄

Do you qualify for help from the NHS? Medicine is not free, you have to pay a prescription charge. Generally you would be referred by the NHS to fertility after 6-12 months of trying to conceive. There are then a variety of tests they will do, including your partners sperm test.

Infertility treatments can cost many thousands of dollars and involve strong drugs or hormones. It can also be an emotional roller coaster. Knowing your limits will keep you from being talked into some new procedure that you really don't want and can't afford. When it's time to choose a clinic, do thorough research ahead of time. Keep in mind that some fertility centers that looked great several years ago may have had a lot of turnover in staff and may have gone downhill in quality. But the numbers give you a place to start. Anyway IT IS possible to find well balanced packages, just a bit more of research. Not in London but I'd recommend looking onto BTC, Kiew. Costs look good and so do the services. Wishing you the best x
