LGBTQ Family Building

We know that there are many different paths to parenthood. We know because we help build families every day. We also know that the fertility options and issues facing gays and lesbians and transgender individuals are different from others wishing to become parents. There are legal, financial, and other obstacles that need special attention and knowledge to overcome. Various medical procedures also have benefits and risks that need to be understood. That’s why we offer the very best in comprehensive and personalized care.

Fertility options for third party reproduction have grown over the years. We now have choices that include not only adopted children but genetically related children, as well. Biological females, depending on their health and age, can use advanced technologies such as egg or embryo freezing, sperm donation with Intrauterine Insemination (IUI), In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), shared conception, and egg donation to achieve a pregnancy. Biological males, depending on their sperm quality and surrogacy options, can use technologies like IVF, egg donation, and gestational carriers. As many LGBTQ individuals and couples do not have an established diagnosis of infertility, pregnancy rates per cycle are generally quite favorable.
