For trans individuals who want to build their families biologically, Gay Parents To Be offers help with both fertility preservation and treatment. It’s important to know that hormonal or surgical components of transitioning may affect your future fertility, but with knowledge and preparation, biological family building can be more than just a dream — it can be a reality.
If you plan on transitioning, but have not taken any surgical or hormonal steps, speak to your physician about freezing your sperm or eggs before undergoing any treatment that may affect your fertility.
If you have already taken steps to transition and have cryopreserved gametes, speak to your physican about your personal plan for family building. Your options for family building may include some of the below:
For trans individuals or couples, your family building path will be personalized based on your gender at birth, any fertility preservation, and what gametes are needed to build your family (sperm or egg). The Gay Parents To Be team is dedicated to helping you plan ahead for your future, know your options, and minimize any physical or emotional stress for those who have already started treatment to transition.
Whether this is your first step, or a stop along the way, we’re here to help.
