I am considering IVF at Centro Fecundar with Dr Perez. I am interested in some feedback on those who have been through the experience. Were their unexpected costs involved? Did you have a positive experience. Did your cycle result in pregnancy? My husband and I are very excited about this possiblity. I would love to hear from you.

Hi Penelope,

In what way is it disappointing? It would be very useful if you would be happy to share your experience.

All the best,
Sue

The required amount of time away for egg donation is 8-10 days. You will be prescribed medication to align your cycle with the donor.

As the donor will be going through the initial stimulation and monitoring, you will not be required to be there until approximately the 10th day.

Hi Naf,

If you check out the page for IVF on their website, http://www.centrofecundar.com/english/invitro.asp, it seems to be 11 days in Costa Rica and 6 days in Panamá.

All the best,
Sue

Hi Tahlia,

The email address for Dr. Ariel Pérez is centrofecundar@hotmail.com. I wish you all the look and do let us know how you get on, it is so valuable to hear from people who have contacted and used the clinics.

All the best,

I am very interested in going through with this procedure in the next year or two. I have done a lot of research and this pretty much my only option short of adoption, which is way too expensive and time consuming. How would I find out more information and get a hold of the doctor and facility?

In terms of egg donor IVF, take a look at the following post which will give you a good idea of what’s involved:http://passportmedical.com/2010/04/the-cheapest-egg-donor-ivf-option-for-north-americans/.

I have not had anyone use egg donation yet, but I get a lot of inquiries. We contemplated it for ourselves but decided we would do another shot with her ovum.

My wife and I just returned a couple days ago from Panama after a cycle, so we are crossing our fingers now. She is almost 43, and we got three grade 1 embryos which were implanted. Not as many follicles this time (which is par for the course given her age), but our embryo quality was the best yet). We even got to see them on a lab moniot before implantation which we thought was exciting.

I have been to Panama 5 times, and we like it a lot. If you haven’t been, it will surprise.

Hi,
Can I ask if you can also ask to get more information about the Egg Donor ( or Ovum Donor), if there is any other costs and also how the selection is made.
May I know – Mark – if any of your group going to be using Ovum Donor or anyone had the experience of using Dr. Perez/Centro Fecundar ‘s Ovum Donor?
thank you,
frida
