LGBTQ+ Family Building

Damien Fertility Partners offers individualized treatment options for same sex couples.

Same-Sex Male Couples

Damien Fertility Partners is committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for same-sex male couples. Our care encompasses comprehensive evaluations, genetic testing, semen analysis, and health status checks. We help patients understand their options thoroughly and provide advice on using gestational carriers, ensuring a supportive path to parenthood.

A key component of our care is our partnerships with mental health professionals who are skilled in guiding patients using gestational carriers or donor sperm. Addressing emotional and logistical experiences, these providers deliver invaluable insight and can help patients set expectations and boundaries as they navigate their journey to parenthood.

Same-Sex Female Couples

We are proud to provide personalized and inclusive fertility care for same-sex female couples. Our approach is tailored to meet the unique needs of every couple, offering a range of services from donor sperm treatments to advanced in-vitro fertilization (IVF) techniques and gestational carriers if desired.

For couples considering IVF, we work with agencies to help families find a sperm donor and are by their side to navigate every step of this process. During IVF treatment, one partner uses her egg and carries the pregnancy with the help of donor sperm. Additionally, we offer the innovative option of reciprocal IVF. This unique approach allows one partner to contribute the egg while the other carries the pregnancy, fostering a shared biological and emotional connection to the journey towards parenthood.

Damien Fertility Partners ensures all couples receive comprehensive support and guidance throughout their fertility journey. With a range of options, we strive to accommodate the diverse paths to family building within the LGBTQ+ community, ensuring every couple feels welcomed, respected, and supported.
