fiance is on board with trying now. Yes, I had to show him some statistics to get him there.

My mom went into menopause in her mid to late 50s (which I guess is good). SHe did get pregnant at 45, but had a miscarriage.

Hi, OP. Congratulations on your engagement! I have GEHA, and I have had a good experience with Dr. Chang at Shady Grove. I have only had one visit. He was very personable and informative. The nurse working with me has been very good about coordinating tests and communicating results. What geographic area would be best for you?

Since you have GEHA, maybe you're a federal employee. I looked up several DCUM threads on federal employee insurance and fertility treatment coverage. I haven't looked at all of them in detail, but this is what I collected. If you are a federal employee, getting started now would give you some lead time to decide which insurance would be best before open season in November. Hope this helps.
