Embryo adoption is the newest method of
planning your family, which combines assisted reproductive
techniques with adoption, so that instead of adopting a
baby, infertile couples adopt an embryo.
At Rotunda, we handle embryo donation
like a closed adoption. There is absolutely no contact between
the donor couple and the recipients, who never see each
other. The recipient couple does not even need to inform
their obstetrician that they achieved their pregnancy through
embryo adoption! Unlike traditional adoption, the couple
does not have to go through a legal process to adopt, but
do so through medical treatment. This means that the couple
'biologically adopts' the embryo. There are many reasons
why couples may prefer embryo adoption to adopting a child.
For infertile couples, embryo adoption offers the unique
opportunity to be pregnant, to bond with their child prior
to birth, and to give birth. In addition, embryo adoption
may be much more affordable than traditional adoption in
the countries like the US. Embryo adoption also offers couples
privacy and secrecy, so that they do not need to worry about
societal acceptance of their adopted child. Also in India,
certain groups such as Christians and Muslims cannot adopt.
Embryo adoption can be an extremely attractive option for
them. Embryo adoption is an alternative for infertile couples
who need egg or sperm donation.
The best results with embryo adoptions
are with fresh embryo adoptions, which are done with a Donor
Egg IVF Program.
