What to check before treatment
Legal eligibility, clinic age policies and public-funding criteria can differ. Each guide links to its sources and identifies conditions that need confirmation for the proposed treatment. Egg and sperm donor rules may differ from surrogacy and legal-parentage rules.
The European Atlas of Fertility Treatment Policies 2024 provides comparative policy context. The country guides also use national legislation and patient guidance; changes since 2024 are assessed separately.
