Infertility expense: Your financial situation is a serious problem for fertility care. Sadly, even insurance often does not cover many successful infertility treatments. Many insurance companies do not believe that infertility is a disease, so they don't cover. Also, employers also sometimes drop certain coverage. See your primary care doc and ask for some simple inexpensive things that may help you succeed. Sorry.

LH Kits: If you cannot see a doctor, over the counter ovulation predictor kits are very helpful. They let you know the optimal time for intercourse to maximize your chances. Also, Clomid (clomiphene) is a medication prescribed by a doctor, but very affordable. Semen analysis is another affordable test to consider if insurance is an issue.
