Lesbian Couples

Figures show an increasing number of same sex female couples seeking fertility treatment. We speak to Dr Hemlata Thackare, Consultant Gynaecologist and Fertility Specialist about her experience treating same sex couples. 

Heather and her wife Jacey had intra-partner egg donation treatment at the LWC Bristol and now have a baby son.

With three events taking place in Wales and the South West in the next month, we take a closer look at what happens during our open days and why people should come along.

The HFEA report the latest trends and figures in fertility treatment.

The latest figures from the HFEA show that same-sex female couples seeking IVF has risen eight-fold in the last decade and the number of single women having fertility treatment has more than doubled. 

Lucy and her partner Keira had intra-partner egg-sharing treatment through the LWC Canterbury to have their baby son Rex. 

After several failed IUI attempts, Heather and Kim had IVF treatment at the LWC Harley Street to have their baby boy Arlo. 

In our latest Day in the Life blog, we speak to Amber Chivers, Senior Andrologist, who works between our Harley Street and London Bridge clinics.  She talks to us about her last ten years working at the LWC and what her day job involves.

On International Women’s Day it’s a good opportunity for us as a clinic to reflect on how things have changed for women and their fertility choices.
