Many different types of procedures enable lesbian couples to conceive, including reciprocal IVF, which is one of the most successful and popular.

Understanding the Reciprocal IVF Procedure

Having a child is an extraordinary experience. With reciprocal IVF, each partner can contribute in a meaningful way to the conception and birth of their children.

The steps of the reciprocal IVF procedure are as follows:

• The first partner is given fertility drugs to stimulate her ovaries to produce eggs.
• The eggs are then harvested and fertilized with donor sperm.
• The resulting embryos are grown in the laboratory until they are ready to be transferred into the other partner’s uterus.
• The second partner undergoes estrogen replacement and progesterone replacement therapy to prepare the womb for implantation.
• The embryos created in the above step are then transferred into the second partner’s uterus.
• With the aid of estrogen and progesterone supplementation, the embryos can implant, and she becomes pregnant and can carry the baby to term.
• The remainder of the pregnancy and delivery proceeds as does any other pregnancy.
