IVF disappointment
It was very disappointing to learn that women waiting for IVF treatment in North Yorkshire and York will have another three month delay before they can begin treatment. The Primary Care Trust had previously committed to allowing one cycle of IVF for eligible women from 1 April – see my previous comments on this.
Treatment is therefore still restricted to eligible women between the age of thirty-nine and six months and forty years of age whilst younger couples who cannot afford to pay for private treatment must wait yet another three months.
