At Elite IVF Solutions in Weston, Florida, leading-edge reproductive solutions are readily available, and the skilled team works with you each step of the way to pursue your goals. Call today or book an appointment online to learn more about third-party reproduction.

What is third-party reproduction?

According to the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, Third-Party Reproduction involves using donated eggs, sperm, or embryos to enable infertile individuals or couple to become parents.

Elite IVF Solutions also facilitates gestational surrogacy (also known as a gestational carrier), when a woman agrees to have an embryo with no genetic relation transferred into her uterus.

Is third-party reproduction successful?

Yes. Elite IVF Solutions has delivery rates with egg donation above 65%, even better than the national average delivery rate of approximately 50%.

What types of Third-Party Reproduction procedures are available to me at Elite IVF Solutions?

After a thorough evaluation, the team may recommend:

Egg donation

If a female partner can’t produce her own healthy eggs, the oocyte (egg) donor program can provide them. Elite IVF Solutions has helped many women conceive with eggs from identified (known) donors, and from anonymous donors (through regulated donor egg “banks”). Known egg donation uses eggs donated by a specific person, such as a sister, relative, or friend. With anonymous egg donation, Elite IVF Solutions thoroughly screens potential donors prior to acceptance into the program, or eggs are obtained through a partner egg bank.

Sperm donation

Sperm donation is when a male voluntarily gives his sperm in the hopes of helping a woman or couple to become pregnant by way of IUI or IVF. Just as in egg donation, donor sperm can be obtained anonymously from a donor sperm “bank”, or from a directed (known) donor.

Embryo donation

Embryo donation involves using another individual’s or couple’s embryo(s) that were produced from previous IVF cycle(s) to conceive. For many patients and couples undergoing IVF, more embryo(s) are created and cryopreserved (frozen) than are used to complete their family successfully. These remaining embryos are often donated, providing a unique opportunity to help other individuals or couples experience pregnancy and childbirth.

Surrogacy

A surrogate is a woman who agrees to carry a pregnancy for another individual or couple. Surrogate agencies provide information on prospective surrogates, including pictures and personal information. If you select a surrogate, required medical and psychological screening tests ensure they’re a good fit.
