Psychologist Aspects of Surrogate Mother

Egg Vs Sperm Donation - Why Are Women and Men Treated Differently?

Traditionally, there were only sperm banks, which accept sperm donations. This establishment accepts sperm from healthy young men in exchange for a small fee. The donated sperm are then frozen and stored for future storage. The use of these sperms is related to third party reproduction techniques that allow couple who cannot produce offspring to have a child of their own. Later on women have also started donating eggs for the same cause of providing material for third party reproduction. Women eggs are used in IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) techniques to get a woman pregnant, and more recently in surrogate pregnancy where the couple doesn't want the egg of the surrogate mother be used.

Couples who oppose infertility or other social bindings, such as gays and lesbians, have options to choose for pursuing the direction of being entitled as parents- it is primarily surrogacy versus adoption.
