For gay dads and same-sex male couples
Gay dads and same-sex male couples often need egg donor coordination, IVF, embryo creation, surrogate matching, clinic communication, attorney review, and parentage planning. In Loom’s Colombia and Mexico pathways, egg donation is coordinated as anonymous donation.
For single dads
Single fathers may need egg donor coordination, IVF with ICSI depending on clinic recommendations, gestational surrogacy, legal review, travel planning, and birth documentation support. A strong agency role can make the process easier to understand and easier to manage.
For single moms and same-sex female couples
Single mothers may need sperm donor coordination, IVF, fertility preservation, or surrogacy depending on medical and personal circumstances. Same-sex female couples may ask about reciprocal IVF, where one partner provides eggs and the other carries the pregnancy, if medically and legally appropriate.
Donor coordination
Egg donor and sperm donor pathways require clinic screening, consent, privacy, and legal documentation.
Clinic planning
Clinics advise on IVF, ICSI, embryo creation, transfer planning, eligibility, and medical recommendations.
Surrogacy support
Loom coordinates surrogate matching resources, attorneys, documents, travel, communication, and milestone planning.
