After&nbsp;8 failed IVF attempts in&nbsp;Norway Elin Renate Henne chose to travel abroad to get pregnant. But&nbsp;the Norwegian health authorities feels the Norwegian system is good.<\/p>\n<p>Elin Renate: <br \/>\n\u2014 &#8216;Up there \u2013 on&nbsp;the 5th floor, David was born.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>But&nbsp;it took a long time before&nbsp;David was born. Elin Renate and&nbsp;her husband first tried to get pregnant in&nbsp;2010<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 &#8216;We thought that&nbsp;after&nbsp;we had gotten married, we wanted to have a child and&nbsp;start a familiy.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>But&nbsp;she did not get pregnant. Then she had 3 IVF attempts in&nbsp;the public system.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 &#8216;It was like an assembly line, a bit impersonal.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>But&nbsp;it did not work.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 &#8216;The world falls apart, you get broken&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Attempts at&nbsp;a private clinic did not lead to success either.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 &#8216;Fertilized eggs where&nbsp;transfered each time, but&nbsp;never a positive test. And&nbsp;without them being able to explain why. And&nbsp;that&#8217;s what was hard to accept.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Then Elin Renate heard about a clinic in&nbsp;Russia that&nbsp;TV2 has presented. She chose to go.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 &#8216;They were in&nbsp;a way more personal, more detailed, more accurate. And&nbsp;we got a really close individual follow up.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Elin Renate got a lot more hormones, and&nbsp;she used 17 different medications. But&nbsp;she succeeded.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 &#8216;She saw it at&nbsp;once. Here it is.&#8217;\u00a0(Crying)<\/p>\n<p>1 out of 6 Norwegian couples struggles with getting pregnant.

And&nbsp;then I believe it is important to say that&nbsp;the Norwegian system is interested in&nbsp;feedback. They want to improve. They don&#8217;t think they are best at&nbsp;everything. We want both positive and&nbsp;negative feedback to learn from.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The Health Directorate has no exact numbers, but&nbsp;estimates that&nbsp;60% of those getting IVF help in&nbsp;Norway, get pregnant. They do not want to criticize the foreign offer, but&nbsp;ask people to think twice.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 &#8216;In Norway we emphasize that&nbsp;the treatment used is knowledge based. And&nbsp;there are rigid rules and&nbsp;regulations for&nbsp;those running such clinics. This may vary abroad, and&nbsp;for&nbsp;us it is important that&nbsp;the risk for&nbsp;both mother and&nbsp;child is low.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Elin Renate: <br \/>\n\u2014 &#8216;I am not religious, but&nbsp;I have gotten a renewed faith in&nbsp;science.&#8217;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TV 2 NyhetsKanalen, Norway.
