Question 1

Does Clínica Mãe provide fertility treatment for same-sex couples?

Accepted Answer

Clínica Mãe explicitly supports same‑sex couples seeking assisted reproduction. For female couples, the clinic offers intra‑uterine insemination with donor sperm or IVF using either the partner’s own eggs or donor eggs, followed by embryo transfer to the intended mother’s uterus, allowing both partners to share biological and gestational roles. Male couples are offered IVF with donor eggs and a surrogate uterus (barriga de aluguel) in compliance with Brazilian CFM regulations; the surrogate must be a close family member and under 50 years of age. All procedures follow ethical guidelines, and the clinic’s fertility specialists coordinate legal, medical and emotional support to ensure a safe and successful journey for LGBTQ+ families.

Question 2

What fertility treatments and services does Clínica Mãe offer?

Accepted Answer

Clínica Mãe provides a comprehensive suite of assisted reproduction services. Core IVF (in vitro fertilization) cycles include conventional fertilization and ICSI for severe male factor infertility, followed by embryo transfer of fresh or frozen blastocysts. The clinic also offers intra‑uterine insemination (IUI) under the Inseminação Artificial program, low‑complexity Coito Programado for ovulation induction, and pre‑implantation genetic testing through Biópsia Embrionária. Egg donation is available, with a donor‑egg IVF pathway that includes donor screening and matching. Additional options include oocyte and embryo cryopreservation for fertility preservation, Uterus Substituição (surrogacy) for women without a functional uterus, and specialized programs for sorodiscordant couples, homo‑affective couples, and remote patients via the Programa Mãe à Distância. All treatments are delivered within a high‑technology laboratory that follows strict quality standards for assisted reproduction.
