As many of you have certainly already learned from the media, the funding of fertility treatments through state funds has been temporarily suspended. The official justification can be found on the website of the Münster District Government.
We at the green-ivf Center deeply regret this decision. In our view, it sends a completely wrong signal – especially at a time when the unfulfilled desire to have children is already an enormous emotional and physical burden for many couples. The financial support from the state was an important step for many on the path to their desired child.
The fact that this help is now no longer available is not only disappointing for affected couples, but can also have existential consequences. The costs of fertility treatments are often considerable – the funding was a crucial relief for many.
We very much hope that the political decision-makers will rethink this development and that there will soon be a new edition of the funding. Because the desire to have children should not have to fail due to financial hurdles.
