Lesbian couples often explore options such as intrauterine insemination (IUI) or IVF. Our fertility specialists will work closely with you to create a personalized plan that aligns with your preferences and needs. Three of the most common fertility care paths for lesbian couples are:
- Sperm donation and intrauterine insemination using sperm from a bank, or from a known sperm donor, with or without the use of fertility-enhancing medications.
- IVF with donor sperm with one partner providing eggs and gestating the pregnancy
- IVF with donor sperm with one partner providing the eggs and the other partner gestating the pregnancy, sometimes referred to as IVF Co-Maternity.
