Really desperate for advice...undergo some fertilities checking and found to have slightly blocked left tube, hsb with poor morphlogy sperm..now kk doc advice me to take up IVF, but mentally,physically and financially not ready...although i noe thats the best treatment....wat shd i do?
1. Cost
SO-IUI cost S$1.2-1.5K but IVF cost 7-9K with govt subsi 3k per cycle (max 3 cycle) and claim medisave 6K per cycle (max 3 cycle too)..so hard cash maybe abt the same as SO-IUI
2. Chance of pregancy
SO-IUI is 15%, but for my case with male and female fertility fator, maybe 10%?
IVF is 35%
3. Process
SO-IUI not so long and straining, but IVF process is very long, need high time committment...
4. Risk
SO-IUI may have eptopic pregancy cos i have slightly left tube block
IVF risk of failure and higher cost incurred...
really hope for some advice, i am lost....
