Many couples decide to research affordable IVF treatments in Colombia, due to the ban in Costa Rica, as well as the high costs of treatment in Panama. Colombia offers Artificial Insemination, Gamete transfer (gift), affordable IVF treatments, as well as intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection, and Intrauterine insemination. In fact, the quality of Colombian fertility clinics and medicine has been recognized for industry leadership by the Latin American Network of Assisted Reproduction.

Affordable IVF treatments in Costa Rica are not currently available, while Mexico and Panama are costly compared with IVF treatments in Colombia.

But access to fertility treatments varies greatly from country to country. Access to IVF treatments abroad vary by poltical & religious interpretations applied by the state. While Costa Rica bans in vitro fertilization completely, other apply some limitations. For example, some IVF treatments are available only to married couples, not to gay or lesbian couples or unmarried women. This is not the case for IVF treatments in Colombia.

In Germany and Italy for example, governments stipulate the number of fertilized embryos to be implanted during IVF treatments. Many countries refuse the use of donated eggs, and for those that accept egg donation, there are questions of family background, and other ethical debates over rights-to-privacy for donors as well as recipients. IVF treatments in Costa Rica are non-existent, and therefore many of these discussions and questions turn to Panama & Colombia fertility doctors and clinics.

There are many complex reasons for the diagnosis of infertility in men or women. The availability of affordable IVF treatments depends on the medical marketplace you are going to travel to. With such a myriad of treatments, it is of vital importance that you are treated in a destination that offers all possible IVF treatments, as well as other forms of fertility medicine.
