IVF/PGD in Europe?

[castch]

Hello there

I am living in Switzerland and wondering if there is a closer country than the USA where I could do IVF/PGD to get a finally a Girl after two lovely boys.

Does anybody know a clinic, doctor or could even give recommendation?

In advance thank you for your support.

Hiya Cath! Yes, PGD is available in Europe in Prague (**** and ********, they don't do PGD for family balancing openly, but if you discuss it with them in private they will let you choose the embryo) and Cyprus (use Savvas in South Cyprus, not the one up North!) Good luck, hope you get your little girl!

I can recommend dr Savvas Koundouros from the Genesis clinic in South Cyprus. I know many girls came back pregnant and I just gave birth to our IVF/PGD boy. We want to go back for a girl. Good luck!

Thank you for the info.
What are the approx. costs for IVF/PGD? How Long will it take and how often do you have to travel there?

Hi Castch,
I'm from Switzerland too and have also two little boys. Initially we wanted to go to **** in Prague but are hesitating due to the fact that although the clinic is doing PGD, Gender Selection is not fully compliant with the country's law. We therefore assume that the clinic doesn't perform as many PGD cases as a clinic does in a country where you can address the issue openly. Furthermore, their testing method is only FISH. Cyprus is no option for us as well. We are therefore thinking about the Middle East (we have to travel with both kids and my husband can only manage to be away from business for 2 weeks so we can't organize California at the moment). Good to read that I'm not the only one in Switzerland considering Gender Selection :-)

Why isn't south Cyprus not an option? I would never recommend north Cyrus but south Cyprus is oke to go!

During our search for a clinic we also contacted Genesis in South Cyprus and have not been satisfied with the answers to our questions. Choosing a clinic is a very personal choice. Unfortunately, in Europe there is hardly any choice....

Hi Swiss
Nice to hear that there is a mom in Switzerland too ;-)...
I am now following a threat at Gender Selection Guide "An die deutschen Mädels hier. Ich verstehe nur Bahnhof". It is in German and some of them have pritty Good experience with the ****. I contacted **** today and would like to try it this spring/summer...

[Swiss]

Know the threat too...If I'm up to date than there is only one woman who cycled there. The other ones have only plans to go there. Wish you luck! May I ask you how old you are?
