Re: trying to get pregnant with pcosFrom: Jamie (anonymous@obgyn.net)Sun, 23 Apr 2000 22:10:35 -0500 (CDT)
I have a question about these drugs...do insurance plans usually cover them or are they considered as fertility treatments instead of PCOS treatments. My husband and I have been trying to have a second child for about 3 years now with no luck (and LOTS of trying :)) So needless to say I am looking for some other options. I am meeting with an Endometriologist this month and I am just wondering if these drugs you all are getting treated with will be covered or not? Any answers would help... Thanks!
