Same-Sex Parenting

Building Your Family

Same-sex couples have more family-building options than ever before, and AFCT has the experience and expertise to guide you through every step of the process. We provide a warm, inclusive environment where all families are celebrated.

For Female Couples

• Reciprocal IVF: One partner provides eggs, the other carries the pregnancy — a beautiful way for both partners to be biologically connected to your child
• IUI with Donor Sperm: One partner undergoes insemination with carefully selected donor sperm
• IVF with Donor Sperm: For couples who need or prefer IVF for medical reasons

For Male Couples

• Gestational Surrogacy: A gestational carrier carries the pregnancy using embryos created with your sperm and donor eggs
• Donor Egg Selection: Choose from our exclusive donor egg bank or work with an egg donation agency
• Split Embryo Creation: Use sperm from both partners to create embryos, increasing the biological connection for both

Donor Selection

We help you navigate the donor selection process, providing access to reputable sperm and egg banks with comprehensive donor profiles including medical history, genetic testing, and personal information.

Legal Support

We collaborate with reproductive attorneys who specialize in LGBTQ+ family law to ensure all legal protections are in place, including pre-birth orders, second-parent adoption guidance, and donor agreements.
