Ivy272 - I have Gonal F pens leftover from my IVF cycle that I had self pay for and I would love to sell them to you for a lot less than what I paid for them.

Please email me if you are interested at rdimarzio@gmail.com. I could send the meds to you ASAP.

Thanks
Rachael

Hello,

I don't know if they ship to San Fran, but I live in Los Angeles and I used IVP Care. Their phone number is 800-424-9002. My insurance also did not cover my meds (follistim, menopur, lupron, and pregnyl) and I found them to be the best price. They shipped everything I needed (the pen, needles etc.) to me overnight.

Hope this helps.

All the best and good luck.

I used IVP Care as well and they were excellent.. They shipped things in the proper boxes at the right temperature and I had them overnight!!

Highly recommended!

My insurance doesn't cover any meds either. I highly recommend Freedom Fertility Pharmacy!!!!!!! If you click on Patients (at the top of the screen), and then choose Medications, you can get all their product and pricing information.

www.freedomfertility.com

I've had 2 failed cycles and had to use 5 or 6 of the Gonal-F 900 pens per cycle @ $597.00 each. Freedom Fertility saved me over $300.00 on each pen.

The best part is that you're automatically (free of charge) enrolled in the Fertility Assist program, which means that if you aren't successful in your first 2 cycles of using Gonal-F, the medication is free on your 3rd cycle (within 18 months). Again, a huge help!!! That's gonna save me $2985.00 - $3582.00 on meds next time!

I referred a friend to them and even though she was on completely different medications than me, she saved about $1000.00 on her meds.

P.S. They also ship FedEx, next day, for free. On my 1st cycle, Boston had a huge snow storm on a Friday night and the FedEx planes couldn't fly out. Freedom called me at 8:30 Saturday morning and found a pharmacy in my area where I could go get my meds. They did all the legwork. I have nothing but good things to say about their customer service.

BEST OF LUCK !!!! I know firsthand how expensive all this is. None of the procedures are covered by my insurance either.
