Infertile couples competing for rare resources such as human eggs and surrogates are vulnerable. The desire to have a child motivates couples and individuals to consider alternatives inherent with personal and financial risk.
“Assembling the Global Baby” (WSJ Dec. 11, 2010), suggests that bearing an offspring in India is more cost-effective than similar treatment in the United States. Although it may be more exotic, it is certainly not medically or legally safer. Represented cost estimates are inaccurate and the reader is left with the impression that a surrogate cycle is financially exorbitant in the U.S. No references were provided for your estimated costs of $32,000-$68,000 outside the country versus upwards of $200,000 in the U.S. As practicing infertility specialists in the southeastern U.S., we are aware of many U.S. clinics that provide third party reproductive services with costs similar to or lower than those quoted for outside the US. At our clinic, a couple (heterosexual or gay) seeking the use of an egg donor and gestational carrier can accomplish this for the cost of around $50,000 and also avoid inconveniences associated with international travel and brokering.
Cost effectiveness aside, surrogacy in the US is arguably safer. Our industry is regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), with detailed guidelines specifying infectious disease screening and handling of donor gametes (sperm and eggs) for all parties including the surrogate or gestational carriers and the intended parents. These guidelines guarantee that HIV, hepatitis and a list of infectious diseases will not be transmitted. Additionally the majority of U.S. fertility clinics report to a national database overseen by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and SART( Society for Reproductive Technologies) in which the public can access clinic pregnancy rates and outcomes, thus making more informed choices.

Pregnancy after Tubal Ligation: The New Way Women Are Conceiving Without Surgery
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Raleigh, North Carolina
According to the CDC, more than 650,000 women a year elect to undergo tubal sterilization, some of whom will eventually regret their decision due to a life change or simply a change of heart. While the obvious solution to some might be tubal reversal surgery, in vitro fertilization (IVF) is an option that an increasing number of patients are choosing.
“While for some patients, especially those under the age of 30, tubal reversal surgery may be an ideal way to regain their fertility, no one can guarantee that the surgery will be successful,” says Dr. Bill Meyer of Carolina Conceptions who recommends that every woman undergo ovarian reserve testing before considering tubal reversal surgery.
Advantages of IVF include a shorter recovery time (since surgery is not involved), the option to correct male factor infertility, a decreased risk for ectopic pregnancy, and the ability to screen for genetic abnormalities. Also, patients who undergo IVF do not need to be re-sterilized after delivery since the procedure was never reversed.
Tubal reversal surgery prices and IVF prices can vary greatly. At Carolina Conceptions, patients receive a large discount of 50% off the price of IVF should they choose the treatment over tubal reversal surgery.
About Us: Carolina Conceptions is the only private practice of its kind in the Triangle area where all doctors are board certified in both OB/GYN and Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility. The physicians share more than 45 years experience in the infertility field and have achieved some of the highest success rates in both the region and the country. In 2010, the practice was awarded with the First Citizens Bank Exceptional Customer Experience Award by the Greater Raleigh Chamber of Commerce.
The practice offers a fully comprehensive range of treatment options along with a highly trained staff who are dedicated to delivering friendly and compassionate care.

Carolina Conceptions Helps Sister Give the Gift of Life to Breast Cancer Survivor
After being diagnosed with breast cancer at age 34 and undergoing months of aggressive chemotherapy, Teri Critcher was unsure if she would be able to start the family she had always dreamed of until her sister, Niki, offered to donate her eggs. It was several years ago when Teri, who had no family history of cancer, first started treatment for a form of breast cancer that left her no time to preserve her eggs. After being pronounced clear from cancer in 2006, Teri and her husband Howie knew they wanted to start a family but were advised to give Teri’s body at least two to three years to recuperate and see if the cancer would come back.
Fortunately it did not, and at age 37, Teri and her husband sought help getting pregnant from Dr. John Park, a board certified infertility specialist at Carolina Conceptions. “Chemotherapy can wipe out the remaining pool of eggs that are resting within the ovaries, so while Teri was only 37 years old, she had an egg reserve equivalent to a 50 year old,” says Dr. Park who recommended Teri and her husband pursue in vitro fertilization (IVF) with donor eggs to achieve the best possible pregnancy rates.
Teri’s sister, Niki Downs, who already has two children of her own, offered to donate her eggs to help Teri conceive. “I knew how much Teri and Howie wanted kids and this was a gift I could give that would be forever,” says Niki. Teri and her husband’s first attempt at IVF with donor eggs was a success and she is currently pregnant and in her second trimester. “I am very lucky to have such a generous sister and my husband and I couldn’t be more excited about this pregnancy,” says Teri.
As cancer treatments continue to improve there are a growing number of survivors of childhood cancers and breast cancer. However, the cost of survival can mean the loss of future fertility. “It is very rewarding to be able to provide an alternative method of building a family for this group of patients. Fortunately for Teri she had a younger sister who was willing and able to donate her eggs,” says Dr. Park.
Dr. John Park, along with Dr. Bill Meyer and Dr. Grace Couchman, make up the practice Carolina Conceptions – a well-renowned infertility clinic in Raleigh, NC. To learn more visit www.carolinaconceptions.com.

We want to help those couples because we can’t imagine life without our beautiful children and we want to pay it forward.”
The Pay It Forward Fertility Foundation currently has the full support and involvement from four local fertility clinics. The North Carolina Center for Reproductive Medicine, Carolina Conceptions, Duke Fertility Center and UNC Fertility are all represented on the Board of Directors and the Advisory Board.
