Intended Parents Session + Report
|
|
|
Intended parents are encouraged by their doctor and the ASRM to attend counseling prior to an egg or
sperm donation procedure or before using a gestational carrier. Counseling for IPs includes
the exploration of complex social issues and feelings that may be hard
to voice. This counseling session is not intended to be a test you must
pass prior to treatment but rather a place to discuss your concerns.
IP counseling is approx 1 hour 10 min and covers the topics recommended by the
American Society of Reproductive Medicine, (ASRM). A brief report for your physician or clinic is included in the fee. A narrative report will be an additional fee.
ASRM Topics for Intended Parent Egg Donation Counseling
- What are our best options considering our finances?
- Will my child be upset with me for choosing to conceive this way?

- How can I cope with the grief of not having a biological child?
- Should we tell our family members about using a donor?
