For LGBTQ individuals and couples hoping to start or expand their families, Conceptions Fertility Center proudly offers personalized fertility care and support tailored to diverse needs and circumstances. Our compassionate team of fertility specialists provides comprehensive, state-of-the-art assisted reproductive including, in vitro fertilization (IVF), reciprocal IVF, egg and sperm donation services, fertility preservation, and surrogacy coordination, empowering patients on their journey to parenthood.

Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a fertility option frequently chosen by lesbian couples or single women, involving the careful placement of donor sperm directly into the uterus around the time of ovulation. At Conceptions Fertility Center, our skilled professionals provide this straightforward, minimally invasive, and cost-effective treatment with compassionate care and clinical expertise.

In vitro fertilization (IVF) offers another advanced reproductive option, involving the retrieval of eggs from one partner or a donor, fertilization with donor sperm in our state-of-the-art embryology laboratory, and subsequent transfer of embryos into the intended parent’s uterus. IVF is particularly beneficial for LGBTQ individuals or couples facing fertility challenges or those choosing reciprocal IVF. Reciprocal IVF enables both partners in a lesbian couple to actively participate in the conception process—one partner providing eggs, while the other partner carries the pregnancy, helping both partners feel deeply connected to their child’s journey from the very beginning.

Surrogacy provides a valuable pathway for gay male couples, transgender individuals, and others requiring a gestational carrier. Conceptions Fertility Center offers comprehensive support for gestational surrogacy arrangements, coordinating closely with intended parents and surrogates, handling medical procedures such as embryo creation through IVF using donor eggs and sperm from one or both intended parents, and transferring embryos into the surrogate’s uterus. Our team helps patients navigate every step of the process, from choosing a surrogate to understanding legal considerations, offering guidance and clarity along the way.

At Conceptions Fertility Center, we understand that family-building paths can be unique and diverse.  For female couples wishing to conceive, natural conception without sperm is not biologically possible, as human reproduction requires genetic material from both a sperm and an egg to create a viable embryo. Currently, two eggs alone cannot combine directly to establish pregnancy, since egg cells each carry only half the genetic material needed and lack the capability to fertilize one another naturally.

However, modern fertility treatments available at Conceptions Fertility Center offer numerous established pathways for female couples to achieve parenthood. Assisted reproductive technologies (ART), including donor insemination and in vitro fertilization (IVF), provide effective solutions. Donor insemination involves carefully selecting sperm from a donor to fertilize one partner’s egg through artificial insemination or IVF procedures. Additionally, reciprocal IVF allows both partners to actively participate in the conception process—one partner provides the egg, fertilized in our state-of-the-art laboratory with donor sperm, while the other partner carries and gives birth to the child. This process enables both parents to share in the biological and gestational experiences of pregnancy.

Our dedicated fertility specialists at Conceptions Fertility Center support and guide female couples every step of the way, offering compassionate care, advanced technologies, and personalized treatment options tailored to your family’s unique journey toward parenthood. While scientific research continues to explore future possibilities, such as creating offspring from two female genetic sources without sperm, these methods remain experimental and unavailable for clinical use at this time. Currently, donor sperm-based fertility treatments remain necessary and highly successful approaches for female couples striving to conceive and grow their families.

If you’re considering starting or growing your family, our team at Conceptions Fertility Center is here to support you every step of the way. Preparing your body and lifestyle ahead of time can significantly boost your chances of a healthy pregnancy and successful conception.

Scheduling a preconception consultation at Conceptions Fertility Center is an excellent first step. During your visit, our fertility specialists will perform a comprehensive evaluation of your reproductive health, review your medical history, update any necessary vaccinations, and discuss medications or health factors that may influence your fertility and pregnancy outcomes.

To further enhance your fertility, begin taking prenatal vitamins containing folic acid at least one month before conception. Folic acid is essential in reducing the risk of certain birth defects and supports early fetal development. Continue taking these vitamins throughout your pregnancy to ensure optimal nutrients for you and your baby.

Maintaining a healthy weight and engaging in regular, moderate exercise—such as brisk walking, swimming, or yoga—can positively influence fertility, enhance your emotional well-being, and support pregnancy health. Our specialists at Conceptions Fertility Center can help you create a personalized lifestyle plan tailored to your unique needs.

It’s also important to limit or eliminate habits like smoking and alcohol consumption, as these can negatively impact fertility and pregnancy outcomes. Minimizing caffeine intake is also recommended, as excessive consumption may affect fertility. For more information, contact us or schedule an appointment online.
