FAQs

Reciprocal IVF, also known as Shared motherhood is an Assisted Reproduction treatment for same-sex female couples; this method allows both women to play a vital role in the conception, gestation and birth of their child.

The centre where you are having the treatment can provide donor sperm after selecting it according to rigorous genetic and immunological compatibility criteria.

The Shared motherhood procedure involves an IVF treatment, which has a higher success rate than insemination. The chances of success of IVF in Shared motherhood cases are also higher compared to the general population, because couples who choose this option are usually younger and often do not have any infertility problems.
