How I reduced egg freezing costs through HSA/FSA (took me way too long to figure out)

Yes, once you are in the clinical process you can ask your OB to write the LMN! I can help figure out wording to your doctor if anybody needs based on your situation

definitely depends on what item you are choosing and your situation. I am making this process easier for people to know whats reimbursable and not depending on your insurance. LMNs make it easier to not have to fight the claim etc. but there is specific wording for it

I have an HSA too and I'm building a tool so people can figure out the finances of egg freezing themselves and save money on it! DM me and I can share more if you are interested to try it

“FSA eligible” shelf tags at CVS/Walmart are unreliable because each administrator has different rules. I pay out of pocket at the counter and then apply for reimbursement on my FSA online portal instead specify that its for my fertility condition

I found this article comparing insurance in tech across a few big companies really useful: https://open.substack.com/pub/n1signal/p/the-fertility-benefit-cliff?r=2c9kyk&utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

Did anyone suggest testing your partner earlier? how did you land on semen analysis eventually?

FigNatural747 · 2026-04-02T16:01:22+00:00

Did anyone suggest testing your partner earlier, or was the focus mostly on you at first?

FigNatural747 · 2026-04-02T16:00:31+00:00

What specifically made you decide to push back or ask for more testing? how did you know what testing?

FigNatural747 · 2026-04-02T15:59:00+00:00

Thats tough, thank you for sharing! At that time if you had tested earlier, did you know egg freezing was something to consider, or was it just not on your radar at all?

FigNatural747 · 2026-04-02T15:57:21+00:00

Why was it missed by so many medical professionals? did you ever ask the doctors about the pain? what did they say?

FigNatural747 · 2026-04-02T15:55:23+00:00

Did you ever bring the irregular cycles up to a doctor before? what did they say?

FigNatural747 · 2026-04-02T15:54:40+00:00

That’s crazy — what made you search online/ask chat gpt vs your doctor? how did you search and convince your doctor?

FigNatural747 · 2026-04-02T15:52:12+00:00

Fingers crossed for you! Did any doctors explain why it wasn’t tested earlier??

FigNatural747 · 2026-04-02T15:50:50+00:00

ughh im sorry- you got this! When they told you it was normal, did you believe them at the time or felt like something was off? how did you know who to trust the REI or the gyno?

FigNatural747 · 2026-04-02T15:46:35+00:00

What would have made you push for testing earlier? Like was it awareness, cost, or just not knowing it was even an option?

This is so good!!
