What options are available?
In-Vitro Fertilisation - IVF
IVF, or In Vitro Fertilisation, is a medical procedure used to help individuals or couples with fertility issues achieve pregnancy. It involves several steps and is typically carried out in a specialised fertility clinic or assisted reproductive technology (ART) centre.
Donor Insemination
Donor insemination, also known as artificial insemination with donor sperm (AID), is a reproductive medical procedure in which sperm from a donor is used to fertilise a woman's eggs. This procedure is typically used when a male partner is unable to produce healthy sperm or in cases where a woman wishes to conceive without a male partner.
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) - IVF
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is an advanced assisted reproductive technology (ART) procedure used in fertility treatments, primarily during in vitro fertilisation (IVF). It involves the direct injection of a single sperm cell into an egg to facilitate fertilisation. ICSI is typically employed when there are male infertility issues that may hinder the sperm's ability to fertilise an egg through traditional insemination methods.
Egg Donor
An egg donor is an individual, typically a woman, who provides her eggs (oocytes) for use in assisted reproductive technologies (ART), such as in vitro fertilisation (IVF). Egg donation is a process where a woman's eggs are retrieved, and fertilised with sperm (either from a partner or a donor), and the resulting embryos are then transferred into the uterus of the intended mother or a gestational carrier.
Surrogacy
Surrogacy is a reproductive arrangement in which a woman (the surrogate) carries and gives birth to a child on behalf of the intended parents, who may be unable to conceive or carry a pregnancy to term for various reasons. Surrogacy is often used as an option for individuals or couples who want to become parents but face infertility, medical conditions that make pregnancy unsafe, or same-sex couples and single individuals who require assistance to have a biological child.
