ROPA Method IVF

The ROPA Method (Reception of Oocytes from Partner) is designed for female same-sex couples who want to share the biological experience of pregnancy. This treatment allows one partner to provide the eggs while the other carries the pregnancy—enabling both partners to participate physically and emotionally in the family-building process.

MedEscape partners with fertility centers experienced in LGBTQ+ family formation and compliant with applicable reproductive regulations. Each ROPA cycle is carefully structured to coordinate ovarian stimulation and egg retrieval for one partner, laboratory fertilization with donor sperm, and embryo transfer to the other partner. Treatment protocols are individualized based on age, ovarian reserve, uterine health, and overall reproductive goals to optimize success rates and ensure a seamless clinical timeline.

This option is particularly appealing for couples seeking shared motherhood with full medical oversight, transparent planning, and cost-efficient international treatment pathways.

Key Features

  • Coordinated dual-partner treatment planning

  • Personalized ovarian stimulation for the egg-providing partner

  • Comprehensive uterine preparation protocol for the gestational partner

  • Advanced fertilization techniques (ICSI when indicated)

  • High-quality embryo culture in a controlled embryology lab

  • Ultrasound-guided embryo transfer

  • Clear cycle calendar aligned for both partners

  • Dedicated patient coordination for international travel and legal guidance discussions

  • Consultation to discuss embryo freezing, PGT, or future sibling planning

Final protocol details, donor sperm selection logistics, and cycle synchronization plans will be confirmed during consultation to align with both partners’ medical profiles and shared family-building goals.
