LGBTQ+ Fertility Clinics
434 clinics in our directory
Finding the right fertility clinic means finding one that is genuinely experienced with LGBTQ+ family building — not just willing to see you. These clinics offer services like reciprocal IVF, known donor programs, sperm donation, surrogacy coordination, and dedicated care pathways for same-sex couples and transgender patients.
Services that matter for LGBTQ+ patients
Look for clinics that explicitly offer LGBTQ+ Family Building programs, Reciprocal IVF (where one partner provides eggs and the other carries), known or anonymous donor sperm programs, gestational surrogacy coordination, and experience with single parents by choice.
Questions to ask during a consultation
Ask how many LGBTQ+ patients or same-sex couples they treat per year, whether they have a dedicated patient navigator for LGBTQ+ family building, and how they handle legal documentation for both partners. A clinic that can't answer these questions confidently may not have the experience you need.
Insurance and legal considerations
Coverage varies significantly by state and employer. Some states with fertility insurance mandates may have LGBTQ+-inclusive language; others don't. Work with a reproductive attorney alongside your clinic to ensure parental rights are properly established from the start, especially in surrogacy arrangements.

Frequently Asked Questions
What fertility options are available for same-sex female couples?
Same-sex female couples can pursue IVF using one partner's eggs and the other's uterus (reciprocal IVF / co-IVF), IUI with donor sperm, or IVF with donor sperm. Reciprocal IVF allows both partners to have a biological role in the pregnancy and is offered at most fertility clinics on this list.
What options exist for same-sex male couples?
Same-sex male couples typically pursue gestational surrogacy using one (or both) partner's sperm and either a donor egg or a known egg donor. The embryo is then transferred to a gestational carrier. This process involves both a fertility clinic and reproductive legal counsel.
Can single people use a fertility clinic?
Yes. Single women can use IUI or IVF with donor sperm. Single men can pursue surrogacy with a donor egg. Most clinics on this list work with single patients and have experience guiding them through their options.
How do I find a truly LGBTQ+-affirming clinic?
Look for clinics with LGBTQ+ Family Building specifically listed as a service, ask about their patient volume for same-sex couples, and request a phone consultation before committing. The intake process and how staff communicate will tell you a lot about the clinic's actual culture.
