Hey!
How are you doing?
You are just into very common confusions that each one often supposed to have while selecting in between IVF or surrogacy.
I am not saying such words to discourage you but your opinion about IVF is pretty right.
You won’t be able to scale about in which cycle you would be able to conceive.
This is a long-term process. Well! Surrogacy is also a long-term process. But once your surrogate conceives, and then there are no more struggles found.
But you have to be sure that the money you are investing has worth. Never waste your money on worthless things.
Look for the fertility clinics that offer valuable packages and services.
And they must assure you about a good surrogate.
In my experience I had two IVF failed. And dropped the idea of going for more cycles.
And I am also looking for surrogacy procedure.
Good luck with where ever you go.
