The Diaspora Woman's Guide to IVF in Nigeria

A practical guide to choosing, preparing for and navigating IVF in Nigeria — before you spend the money, take the time off work and get on that plane.

You’re living abroad and considering coming home to Nigeria for IVF.

Maybe treatment where you live is too expensive, the waiting list is too long, you’re exploring donor eggs.

Or you simply want to go through this journey closer home.

Whatever your reason, IVF across borders comes with questions that ordinary IVF guides don’t answer.

Which clinic should you choose?

What will you actually spend?

When should you travel?

What should you arrange before you leave home?

What happens if your cycle is delayed or cancelled?

And how do you manage care between your clinic abroad and your clinic in Nigeria?

This guide was created to help you figure those things out before you travel.
