What Does Fertility Treatment for Same-Sex Couples in London Involve?
For same-sex couples seeking fertility options, consulting with experienced fertility specialists is an essential first step. These experts offer personalised guidance, addressing both medical and emotional needs throughout the fertility process.
​
At Apex Reproductive Healthcare Ltd, Dr. Vidya Seshadri provides compassionate and expert fertility treatment for same-sex couples in London. Through a comprehensive assessment of each couple’s individual needs, Dr. Vidya may recommend a tailored approach, which can include the following:
​
Donor Sperm Insemination:
For female same-sex couples or individuals, this involves using donor sperm to fertilise one partner's egg through intrauterine insemination (IUI) or in vitro fertilisation (IVF). The partner carrying the pregnancy undergoes the necessary procedures. Shared motherhood can also be offered (where one partner "donates" her eggs and the other carries the pregnancy).
Donor Egg IVF:
Male same-sex couples or individuals may opt for IVF using a donor egg, which is fertilised with sperm from the partner.
In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) with Surrogacy:
This option involves IVF using embryos created from the eggs and sperm of one or both partners, which are then transferred to a gestational carrier (surrogate) who carries the pregnancy to term.
Fertility Preservation:
Same-sex couples may also opt for fertility preservation methods such as egg or sperm freezing before undergoing medical treatments or procedures that may affect fertility, ensuring the possibility of biological parenthood in the future.
Surrogacy:
In cases where neither partner can carry the pregnancy, surrogacy is an option. This involves a third-party (surrogate) carrying the pregnancy to term, using either the egg of one partner or a donor egg, fertilised by sperm from one partner or a donor.
