[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this has probably been answered a million times but I am trying to piece this together for my situation.

I’m 36...I should have done this 10 years ago but I didn’t.  I think I may want to have a bio kid in next 3 years but I am not ready right now.  My friends are saying to freeze some embryos like ASAP to give me that option in like a year or two when I am more likely to be ready.  This is all being delayed bc of career.

Where should I go in DC for this?  How do I decide?  I assume this is all out of pocket (bc I am doing it voluntarily) so I guess I am not totally cost insensitive.  [b]Would be ideal to keep this under $10k[/b].[/quote]

At 36, $10k is a non-starter unless you go abroad.  Your meds alone would cost you $3k (at least) and you will want to have your embryos tested for chromosomal abnormalities before saving them long term.  You may also need more than 1 cycle of IVF.  I would budget for at least $25k or look into freezing eggs, which will be cheaper but much less likely to result in a live birth than PGT-A tested embryos.  [/quote]
