how old do you have to be to get help to become pregnant?

Question

i have pcos and would like to know how old you have to be to get help to become prenant ie tablets just want to know the age you can start thanks

Answer 1

First of all if you are under the age of 18, it's not a strong possiblity. If you are 18 or over, I would suggest consulting your gyn. That's kind of a tough one, I want to say just as drinking age, perhaps 21. Again I stress you consult either A. your gyn, B. your parents or C. both.

Answer 2

If you are asking this then you are probably too young to be a parent Plus I don't think it is as simple as just getting tablets AND if it were you would have to be at least 18 maybe 21. But there aren't many doctors that would help a girl that young become pregnant. When you become a woman ask this question again.k?

Answer 3

I imagine that outside of very unusual circumstances you would have to be 18 years old. Marriage is legal with parental consent at 16, so I imagine a married couple aged under 18 could be given help. Its up to the discretion of the doctor involved. I doubt many GPs are going to encourage teen pregnancy unless the woman involved is in a secure relationship, with a guaranteed income.

Answer 4

I don't know about PCOS but usually you have to have been trying to become pregnant for one year before help is suggested.

I don't think there is an age you have to be, it would be unethical for a doctor to deny you medication due to your age. However, I doubt you will find a doctor who will help unless you are 21.

Answer 5

It all depends on your Dr. I was 19 and married when I had my son. My Dr.'s were horrible. They treated me like a child. I ended up getting endometriosis after my son and those same DR.'s would not take anything I said seriously. They weren't even the ones who diagnosed me, I ended up changing Dr.'s and I am much happier. He diagnosed me and now my husband and I are trying for baby #2 with the help of Clomid. He treated me like an adult through it all even though I am only 22 now. I would say it honestly depends on the Dr. but for anyone who deserves it, find a Dr. that treats you like an adult :)

Get your PCOS treatment in India .IVF treatment ,IUI,ICSI and Laparoscopic surgery is very cheap in India.There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges all types of medical treatment andsurgery for foreigners in India.They are called the Forerunners Healthcare.I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories.I have also read that they arrange financing for american and canadian patients as some of the surgery including ivf treatment is not covered by insurance.

They also have photos pasted of their International patients.You can checkout their website.The cost savings are incredible.As a doctor i personally believe that your IVF treatment can be easily handled in India as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world.The doctors are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.I recently also read about a chinese couple facilitated by forerunners healthcare were able to get their baby by IVF and a surrogate mother.

my cousin and her husband got their IVF treatment in India through the forerunners healthcare in India and is all praise for this company.She is a known case of PCOS.She is a very happy mother of a baby boy now. She just paid 2500 pounds for the full treatment for which she was quoted 8000 pounds in private setup in UK.I strongly recommend this company to you as they can be of great help to you.hope this helps
