not only is the treatment cheaper in some other countriesm but the drugstores in many countries sell the IVF medicines at much cheaper prices than in the USA.
Even if travelling abroad for treatment is not an option for any particular family, they can still take advantage of some of the cheaper prices abroad by buying the fertifility drugs from online pharmacies that are based abroad.
