Gay Male Couples Family Building

How Gay Male Couples Build Families

For male couples, family building typically involves two key elements:

  • Egg Donor: Eggs are provided by a donor. At AFCT, you have access to our exclusive in-house donor program. If you are looking for additional options beyond our in-house program, we can also help connect you with trusted donor agencies. Our team will help facilitate the process to make sure it's seamless and supported from start to finish.
  • Gestational Carrier (Surrogate): The fertilized embryo is transferred into the uterus of a gestational carrier, who carries the pregnancy.

This process allows one or both partners to have a biological connection to their child while experiencing the joy of parenthood together.

The Step-by-Step Process at AFCT

1
Initial Consultation Your fertility journey begins with a detailed consultation to review your goals, medical history, and family-building preferences.
2
Selecting an Egg Donor We work with trusted donor agencies and egg banks to help you select a qualified donor. Donors undergo strict medical, genetic, and psychological screening.
3
Choosing a Gestational Carrier AFCT collaborates with reputable agencies that assist in matching intended parents with qualified gestational carriers. Many offer concierge-style services to help manage the entire process, including legal coordination.
4
IVF and Embryo Creation One or both partners provide sperm, which is combined with donor eggs in our advanced IVF lab. Resulting embryos are tested and prepared for transfer.
5
Embryo Transfer to Carrier A healthy embryo is transferred into the gestational carrier's uterus under the expert care of our physicians.
6
Pregnancy & Delivery The carrier receives pregnancy care while AFCT coordinates medical oversight until OB care is fully established. After delivery, you welcome your child with full parental rights as established through outside legal arrangements.

Concierge Support & Trusted Partners

While AFCT focuses on your medical treatment and IVF care, we also help you connect with trusted outside professionals who specialize in:

  • Egg donor matching and coordination
  • Gestational carrier matching and management
