  • Reciprocal IVF allows both partners to participate in the pregnancy. Eggs from one partner are fertilized with donor sperm and the resulting embryo is implanted in the other partner's uterus, enabling one partner to contribute genetically and the other to carry the pregnancy.

  • Yes, it is possible for more than one partner in a polyamorous family to have a biological connection to the child, depending on the chosen fertility treatment and the specific family arrangement.

This allows for one partner to contribute genetically and another to be involved gestationally.

These options provide flexibility for polyamorous families to explore various pathways to achieve a biological connection with their child.
