Loops our SCSA was done publicly through the andrology lab at the RHW in Sydney and cost less than $100.
Could that be an option? I don't know where you are, but the tests gave us a little hope. We have very bad motility and morphology, less than 2% normal, but our fragmentation came back as "very high fertility potential" and we managed to get five blasts in our last cycle.
OK edited to say I see where you are. Perhaps there are public labs in Melbourne that offer the same service. We were referred there by our specialist at IVFA who has a relationship with the Royal. Made things a lot cheaper for us in the diagnostic stages. Almost everything was bulk billed.

Amyrillys ~ that's not too bad, I must have been looking at American sites or something. Im in Gippsland Victoria but go through Monash IVF. Perhaps my FS will be able to tell me more.
Thanks for your help - i'll seriously look into that. It would be interesting to know.
