At the Southern California Center for Reproductive Medicine (SCCRM), we proudly support transgender and gender diverse individuals and couples on their journey to parenthood. We understand that family-building is deeply personal, and we are committed to providing compassionate, inclusive, and affirming care tailored to meet your unique needs. Whether you’re considering fertility preservation, donor services, or family-building options, our experienced team is here to guide you every step of the way.
Fertility Preservation Options
For transgender and gender-diverse individuals considering medical transition, fertility preservation can safeguard the opportunity to build a family in the future. At SCCRM, we offer:
-
For individuals assigned female at birth, eggs can be retrieved and frozen before beginning hormone therapy or gender-affirming surgery.
-
For individuals assigned male at birth, sperm can be collected and cryopreserved before starting hormone therapy or undergoing surgery.
-
For those with a partner or using a donor, embryos can be created and preserved for future use.
Fertility Treatment Options
For transgender and gender-diverse individuals ready to build their family, SCCRM offers a range of personalized options:
-
Embryos can be created using preserved eggs or sperm and transferred to the uterus of the patient or a gestational surrogate.
-
Ideal for transgender men and non-binary individuals with a partner, one partner can provide eggs while the other carries the pregnancy.
-
We work with trusted egg and sperm donor programs to provide the resources you need for conception.
-
For individuals who cannot or prefer not to carry a pregnancy, we collaborate with surrogacy agencies to match you with a qualified surrogate.
