What the petition asks
I think the criteria for NHS funding IVF should allow every women who hasn’t got children and who’s finding it difficult to get pregnant regardless if there current partner has children from a previous relationship or not they should be given the opportunity to have at least 1 round with NHS FUNDING
The current criteria doesn’t allow funding if your partner has children every women deserves the chance to be a mother some women can’t afford to go private in the uk which is making them look abroad for cheaper ivf some women have health problems stopping them getting pregnant and need that help of ivf due to endometriosis pcos and so on if we could change the criteria and allow even just 1 round of IVF to those women struggling to get pregnant regardless of your partner having children would mean the world to women struggling all over the uk
