Go to the largest fertility specialists in your area and ask what their payment options are.  Many offer a set fee for as many tries as it takes to make the invitro successful.  Use a bank or second mortgage as a last resort, we went through many, many cycles and we're unsuccesfull.

You could write about crafting the application to secure the loan from the SBA(small business association). What goes into the process, the information you need, other sources of funding, etc.\n\nA sort of 'How To' for actually getting the money.

If you have no money, call some clinics from the Yellow Pages and try to negotiate with them on a partial payment.\n\nCall the Department of Human Services.  They may have a list of clinics that charge based on your income.\n\nGo to the emergency room.  They can't refuse you....Good luck!

Many hospitals will work out a plan to pay money at reduced amounts. Contact the hospital and see if you can spread out the payments to a more affordable amount. You may have to talk to several people but try to be polite. Also some states may have a fund to help people in your situation. Go to your states website, or call up there infomration line to see if they can help.

Pre-Paid Legal is the way to go for sure. Have a will, a living will/ health care directives, etc. Plus a whole lot more.\n\nhttp://www.getprotectedhere.com

You can go to the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance (CFDA) http://www.cfda.gov and Grants.gov http://www.grants.gov - these are two sites created by the federal government to provide transparency and information on grants. Browse through the listings and see if you can find any grant that would support your objectives. These two sites are FREE and CFDA is the source of information of all fee-based lists and books on the topic.\n\nNote that federal grants are given to specific target groups in response to a specific need and has specific requirements. The Government does not give out money just for the sake of giving out money.  Grants generally support non-profit organizations, intermediary lending institutions, and state and local governments -- and rarely for individuals. I strongly doubt you'd find any grant to help you out for your cosmetic procedure!

if you are in that situation you dont need a loan. but, if you insist, loan sharks are the best way. dont give them names of possible backers if default bc they will probably kill them

The best source of financing for new small businesses is friends and family.  No such thing as free money, and there is almost nothing available in the private investment or loan market for a brand new business that does not yet have positive cash flow or valuable intellectual property.  \n\nIf you do borrow from friends and family, just be sure to do it in a way that is fair for all parties and be sure to document your agreement in a written contract.  Business deals that go sour between friends and family members can get really ugly, and can permanently damage a relationship that is more valuable than your business.  Protect the personal relationship using smart preventive business and legal measures to avoid disputes.

Tubal ligation, IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatment; IUI, ICSI and Laparoscopic surgery is very cheap in India. The cost is very low and the medical services are very good in India.\n\nMy cousin and her husband got their IVF treatment in India through the Forerunners Healthcare in India and is all praise for this company. She is a known case of PCOS.She is a very happy mother of a baby boy now. She just paid 2500 pounds for the full IVF treatment in India for which she was quoted 8000 pounds in private setup in UK.\n\nForerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the newspapers. I have also read about a Chinese couple who planned surrogacy through the Forerunners Healthcare. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery and infertility treatment like IVF, IUI, and ICSI abroad for low price. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery and treatment  can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.\n\nhttp://www.forerunnershealthcare.com\nHope this helps.

Dealing with the bank is your best choice. You can usually ask for a Forbearance, if you have sufficient income to continue making payments. Ask for the Workout Department, and tell them you are willing to work something out. They may put the past-due payments at the end of the loan, or allow you to pay a little more each month to catch up the past due payments. Depending how far behind you are, this may be your solution. If you still have problems, there are other options you can explore.

Hit up the people you know that you pay money to every year.  For instance, your dentist, your doctor, your lawyer or financial advisor.  These people like your business and know that you pay them for their services.  If you hit them up for donations they're more likely to accomodate seeing as they'd like to help, it's a write off and they want to keep your business.  Same holds true with banks.  If you have an account in good standing at your local bank solicit their marketing department for supplies.  Donations of this type will sometimes fall under what's called the Community Reinvestment Act and is a requirement of banks to participate in.  Part of giving back to the communities that they do business within.  You'll need to furnish all these people with copies of your Federal tax ID so they can write off these donations.  Good luck!
