Amsterdam - Despite advanced facilities at home, many Dutch women travel abroad for fertility treatments - a phenomena which is echoed right across Europe. Why, when the Netherlands seemingly offers excellent treatments?
That question will be answered on Sunday June 28, when academics unveil the results of the first-ever international study into the issue at the annual conference of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) in Amsterdam.
"We know that women increasingly travel around the globe to seek the fertility treatment they want," Dutch ESHRE-chairman Joep Geraedts tells the German Press Agency

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost that precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted that there will be no more babies in our house.
