[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the previous PPs - sadly your friend is not going to be able to have what she wants in this scenario. The best thing she can do at this point is freeze embryos using donor sperm (ideally with PGS, since at her age most of those embryos are going to be abnormal), and then perhaps wait a year or two before transfer so she can save up money to have a child on her own. Otherwise, if she only wants to be a parent in a partnered relationship, it will have to be donor eggs or adoption (or donor embryos if her partner is amenable). I met my husband at just shy of 38, we had our first baby when I was 39.5 and we are TTC #2 now at 40, most likely using eggs I froze when I was 35 (and who knows if those will even work). I am lucky to have the child that I do have at my age, and she is significantly older with proven infertility. [/quote]
