My question is,
Even an American husband can receive fertility treatment support in Japan?

Yes, you can. A friend of mine is in the exact same situation as you, but her husband is American （ and has a high income ）.
The American husband is considered to have no income in Japan and was able to receive all the support for infertility treatment.
My friend successfully gave birth to a child in Japan through IVF.
I hope things work out for you, too, Topi.

I'm sure you are anxious about a lot of things.
I also had IVF with my American husband in CA when I was 36. After waiting 3 months for an appointment at a Japanese hospital, （ we went to a government subsidized hospital ） with a letter of recommendation from my doctor, but we had many problems before the treatment, so we gave up even though the treatment cost was very cheap. The main reason I decided to go to the US was that the pregnancy rate was definitely higher there. I was also told that in Japan, more than two fertilized eggs could not be placed at once. In the U.S., you can do the 4.5 month oil injections at home by yourself. In Japan, you have to go to the hospital. In Japan, we were recommended to do various fertility treatments instead of IVF right away, （ but this process seemed to take more than a year ） I wanted to do IVF right away because of my age, so that was another reason why I chose the US. I think everyone's treatment is different, but if the most important thing is the result of getting pregnant, I feel that the success rate is higher in the US.
Insurance in the U.S. is complicated and basically doesn't cover you, but the medications and other things were covered by insurance.
We are praying for you to have a child.

I am also currently undergoing fertility treatment. By the way, I am of advanced childbearing age.
I have been trying the timing method and taking fertility drugs for about 5 months, but have not been able to conceive until now.
If I am unable to conceive at the next ovulation timing, I am considering two artificial insemination cycles, and if that doesn't work, two in vitro fertilization cycles.
I was quoted about $1500 per cycle for artificial insemination and $15,000 per cycle for IVF. But it seems to vary depending on age. Of course, this is an amount not covered by insurance.

I am thinking about getting some more estimates from different places, but
I would love to know if you have any recommendations or if you have actually had success here ！

Sakura ＞ I am also very interested in the topic. I am also very interested in the topic, so I commented.

My first daughter was conceived normally, but then I had an ectopic pregnancy and had to have a fallopian tube removed, and another fallopian tube was also blocked, so I could not ovulate and could not conceive for 5 years.
Clomid took 13 eggs, and the first 4 eggs that were fertilized with sperm were placed in the uterus.
The doctors told me it was difficult to get them to stay in the uterus, so from the time I got home until my next doctor's appointment, I spent the entire week in bed with a pillow under my buttocks and my butt elevated except for toileting, showering, and eating. I was very careful not to stand up and walk around, as I was afraid that if I stood up and walked around it would flow. So my husband took care of my 5 year old oldest daughter, prepared meals, did all the laundry, etc.
Three of the four eggs we put in eventually flowed, and only my daughter, who somehow managed to hang on, grew scrupulously, and after three months she was able to go to a regular OB/GYN.
The rest of the eggs were frozen for a year and then discarded.

Actually, IVF allows you to choose the gender.
We had an oldest daughter and wanted a boy, but the doctors forgot and combined the sperm with the egg without separating the sex of the sperm.
I am glad it was a girl because my sisters are very close now.

In my case, I succeeded the first time, but I have a friend who tried so hard she could buy a whole house, but it didn't work and she gave up.
It is very hard mentally.

Husband's cooperation is essential.

I did it 24 years ago in Philadelphia, so I don't remember the cost.
Sorry.

My grandfather on my mother's side was adopted. But for us grandchildren born 50 years later, it doesn't matter, and the most important thing is not blood or mitochondria, but the memory of having a grandfather and a mother who gave us a happy childhood. Thanks to those warm memories, I will be able to live forever.

So, even if you don't have children, you can still have a warm family, and there are many children who need a kind father and mother.

I hope to become a full-fledged Foster Parent in a few more years (once my daughter is independent). However, the more I learn about Foster Parenting, the more I think I can't adopt every child. I can't keep up with my knowledge of inheritance, and I don't think I can co-mingle my only daughter with the "others". Japanese parents would be surprised. However, I would like to do my best as much as possible until as many children as possible turn 18. It's just a dream for now.

Now that I'm 18, I'd like to say "goodbye ～ and good luck in your own way from now on ～. It is not a relationship of "send me a card for Christmas ～," but an act full of a precious sense of mission that will be passed on to their grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren, so it is not an easy thing to start
.

In the 50s-70s, white families took in many Korean War orphans, and while there may be arguments about religious ego and convenience, I don't think it is something that the average person can easily do. I'm sure everyone here on the board has encountered people who are "of Korean descent but white at heart". Angelina Jolie may be controversial because of her publicity, but I still think it's great that she takes in children whose birth parents were unable to raise them for various reasons and raises them with love and care. Also, she has done a great job of spreading the word that a family can be a respectable one, even though they are of different races. Even if I had her kind of fortune, I ask myself if I would have the capacity to distribute and give that much love, even though we were in our twenties and had our hands full raising a single child.


So, if you and your family are not strongly opposed, please keep in mind the option of domestic or overseas adoption.
