Male same-sex couple

Information and resources for same-sex male couples considering using egg donation and surrogacy, as well as for two-dad families who already have children conceived this way.

Getting started

Considering donor conception?

You might be coming to this website having decided you want to be parents and wondering if egg donation with surrogacy might be the best route. It’s a big decision, not least because the practical, legal and financial aspects are quite complicated. But you’ve come to the right place to get support and information on how to get started.

Already parents?

If you have children already you might be looking for contact with other couples or other donor conception families, both for yourselves and for your child. Maybe you’re being asked questions at work or by family or friends and are wondering how to respond. You might be looking for information and guidance around how to explain things to your child or how to talk with your child as he or she gets older.

We know many of our same-sex couples like the DCN environment because we include all families, regardless of how they are constituted. It can be great (and interesting!) for children to realise it’s not just gay couples that use egg donation or surrogacy. Have a look at the ‘Telling and Talking’ section to start off.
