There are now over 600,000 embryos in frozen storage in the United States. Embryos in storage in the United States have increased by an estimated 54% since 2002.
Adoption is an act of love, fulfilled by the courage of couples who want to share their love with children. Embryo adoption is life-giving love in action in an age of technology. It’s on the frontier of reproductive ethics!
Embryo donation and adoption is a new way to adopt, a new adoption choice! Rather than adopting a child who has already emerged from her mother's womb, embryo adoption allows the adopting family to begin the adoption journey with pregnancy and childbirth.
Modern medical science has developed procedures to assist people who are having difficulty achieving a successful pregnancy. One of the most popular methods is in vitro fertilization (IVF). Frequently there are more embryos created during an IVF treatment than are actually used, thus embryos remain.
These embryos are frozen and are a source of hope for others who want to add children to their family. With over 600,000 of these healthy, viable embryos in the United States some of them are being donated to families to help achieve dreams of family building! Embryo adoption is an affordable way to adopt compared to domestic or international adoption. You may even determine that using donated embryos is a good IVF alternative for you, rather than creating more embryos or purchasing expensive donor eggs to create embryos.
