German government might be PAYING for the cost of IVF

Infertility treatments aren't cheap. In the United States, the average cost of just ONE treatment is $10,000. Women usually find success with IVF after the fourth treatment, which means patients are paying an exuberant amount of money to have a child, and the results aren't even guaranteed.
