What is Third-Party Reproduction and Who Needs It?

Third-party reproduction involves using a donor or surrogate to help individuals or couples conceive when traditional methods aren’t possible. This can include sperm, egg, or embryo donation, as well as gestational surrogacy. It’s a valuable option for those facing fertility challenges or unique family-building needs.

Who Needs Third-Party Reproduction?

1. Women with Low Ovarian Reserve
Women with a low ovarian reserve may use donor eggs to increase their chances of a successful pregnancy. This option allows them to have a child using healthy eggs.

2. Single Individuals
Single people who wish to become parents may use donor sperm or eggs and fertility treatments like IVF or insemination. For men, this could also involve working with a surrogate.

3. LGBTQ+ Individuals and Couples
For LGBTQ+ couples, third-party reproduction provides a path to parenthood. Gay men, for example, often use egg donors and surrogates, while lesbian couples might use sperm donors and pursue IVF options.
