Inclusive packages for queer families.
Shared motherhood and reciprocal IVF is a treatment for same-sex female couples who want to have a baby with the help of a sperm donor. As the majority of same-sex female couples seeking fertility treatment are not infertile, they have good chances of pregnancy success with our IUI package, using donor sperm. However, the limitation of this treatment means that only one partner can be biologically involved with the conception and pregnancy.
With our Shared Motherhood IVF package, both partners can be part of the process, enabling a truly shared journey right from conception. One partner donates the eggs to be fertilised with the donor sperm to create embryos, with the other partner carrying the baby.
Checking your fertility can help decide which partner takes which role
It is up to the couple as to whether they'd like to use their eggs or carry the baby. Our specialists can help to carry out our fertility diagnostics, which will help you to decide which partner donates their eggs, and which partner will carry the baby. Factors that may affect your decision include age, ovarian reserve, and the presence of any fertility issues.

Your Apricity Clinician will always select the best treatment protocol for you to maximise your chances. Your treatment protocol will determine which medication you are advised to take. You will not necessarily be required to take all of the medication that is included in your treatment package and you may be advised to take medication that is not included in your treatment package.
What’s not included
Donor Sperm
The package does not include donor sperm. This is something that Semovo, our trusted partner and UK-based sperm bank, can help with. We do accept donor sperm from a selection of other reputable sperm banks - please contact our team if you wish to use another sperm bank.
Other
The HFEA considers that there isn't enough evidence to support the efficacy of some "add-on" treatments such as time-lapse imaging or PGS, which is why we do not include them in our standard pricing packages. We also do not include non-routine tests such as Natural Killer Cells or DNA fragmentation, although if required we would be happy to arrange them for you at additional cost.
In some cases, your consultant may prescribe additional medications on an individual basis to address specific concerns, for example, preventing blood clotting.
Some of these may not be included in your treatment package and would therefore be subject to additional charges.
Pergoveris
Clexane and Aspirin
Trental
Steroids (eg prednisolone)
Thyroxine
Progesterone Injections (eg lubion or IM injections)
