[quote=Anonymous]People think REs are miracle workers, and they certainly advertise themselves as such, but the reality is that they can only help a limited subset of their patients. If your issue is something like irregular/non-ovulation, male factor infertility, or mild DOR, IVF is the answer and you'll likely get good results. If your issue is RPL, endometriosis, or significant DOR (and you're unwilling to go with a donor), most REs have little to offer you. They'll certainly take your money and put you though multiple rounds of IVF, though. And remember, these clinics absolutely game their statistics. Remember that a significant number of their patients aren't infertile at all and they count towards the clinics statistics. Every same-sex couple, single mom by choice, and couple who is only doing IVF to screen for genetic illness is part of the statistical pool. [/quote]
