You're too old for Shady Grove's shared risk program (cut off is 37, I think) but you they do that the multi cycle discount. I did that program and got pregnant on try number one, thankfully. Two cycles for less than $20,000. If that didn't work, I'd explore other options with NYU or another program or donor egg.

+1 - I would go to Cornell or CCRM if you are going to do an own egg cycle.

DE can be hard to get over vs your own eggs, but the results are SO worth it.

It may be "just age" but I don't think that's a given. Be aware, that secondary infertility can occur for other reasons as well.

Exactly. Before you worry about how much money you have to spend, you need the full diagnostic workup so you know what you are dealing with.

which costs money, too, it sucks.

plus one more for the people who said leave 30k for the DE shared risk program and work back. You could try one IUI but I wouldn't do any more than that.

Yes, the multi-cycle progaram is designed for those with no insurance coverage, regardless of age. They do not offer a refund like shared risk does though.
