One of the secrets of finding inexpensive IVF and egg donation is to travel abroad to get infertility treatments. Foreign fertility clinics and physicians often provide high-quality medical care with top-notch pregnancy success rates that rival or exceed US fertility clinics. While a US fertility clinic may charge upwards of $10,000 for an IVF cycle, a fertility clinic in Italy may only $3,000. If price is a concern for you, it's worth your time to find an infertility clinic abroad.
