How to Make Fertility Treatment More Affordable with Dr Alexander Kucherov

In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I’m joined by Dr. Alexander Kucherov, a Reproductive Endocrinologist at Illume Fertility, to talk about one of the most important (and often most stressful) parts of the fertility journey: how to afford treatment. Dr. Kucherov shares practical strategies for navigating the financial side of fertility care, including how to access grants, choose smart loan options, and make the most of insurance coverage. We also talk about the role of clinics in providing transparent pricing and financial education, and new innovations on the horizon that could help reduce costs for patients.

Whether you're preparing for IVF, egg freezing, or other fertility treatments, this conversation offers clear steps to help you plan ahead, ask the right questions, and feel more confident and empowered on your path to parenthood.

In this episode, we cover:
- What to consider when planning for the financial side of fertility care
- How to find and apply for fertility grants
- Tips for choosing medical loans and avoiding common pitfalls
- Understanding insurance coverage and fertility riders
- Innovations like bundled pricing and tech-driven solutions that improve access
