Have you had fertility treatment overseas?

A research team are looking for people who've travelled abroad for fertility treatment as part of a large-scale survey into cross-border treatment. More and more people are going outside their home country for treatment for all kinds of reasons - to escape certain regulations, to access treatment more easily or simply because it costs less. There's still very little research into the subject and no one really knows how many people seek treatment overseas - what's more we don't know much about their experiences. One of the only pieces of research into the issue so far was carried out by Infertility Network UK but this new work will be an academic project, going into far more depth. If you'd like to know more about volunteering for the project see www.transrep.co,uk
