At RMA of New York – Long Island, we’ve helped many individuals throughout Nassau and Suffolk Counties become single parents by choice. The first step in any fertility journey is to undergo a comprehensive fertility testing evaluation. From there, our fertility specialists will help you assess your options and identify the optimal treatment for your unique needs. Our fertility care options for single-parent family-building include:

Sperm Donation

Sperm donor conception is a form of third-party reproduction in which a concentrated semen sample containing healthy sperm is provided by a donor and used to attempt fertilization.

Egg Donation

Egg donor conception is a form of third-party reproduction in which eggs are retrieved from a donor and fertilized with sperm in a laboratory; the resulting embryo is then transferred to the uterus of the intended parent or a gestational surrogate.
