Singles

There are many valid reasons for women and men to become single parents.  Some individuals are focused on their career and having a baby seems impossible. Some individuals simple choose to be single or are not in a partnership that shares the same goals of parenthood.  Maybe your life has been difficult to endure, and you have lost hope to build a family. No matter the reason for single motherhood or single fatherhood, only you can determine when — or even why you choose to build a family as a single parent.

At the most prominent fertility center in California, Tree of Life Center, we offer prospective single parents the opportunity to learn about assisted reproductive technology options — as well as choosing an egg or sperm donor, optimizing reproductive health, and creating a support system who will help you navigate the next chapter of your life as a mom or dad.

Our expert fertility team in California can help you create the family you’ve always desired — on your schedule. We understand that choosing to be a single mom or single dad may not always be a simple decision; it is a series of significant choices that helps you reach parenthood.

SINGLE MOTHERHOOD

There are many treatment options available for single women exploring options for parenthood. Whether using donor sperm or a known donor, or using more advanced treatment options, TLC will determine the right form of treatment:

• Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
• In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
• Donor Sperm
• Support Services

Egg Freezing

The average age of first time mothers in the United States, and globally, has been steadily increasing over the past 35 years — and it’s a trend that continues to progress. However, 10 percent of women between the ages of 15-44 have difficulty getting and remaining pregnant. Egg Freezing at the Tree of Life fertility center has become an popular and accepted practice to secure your future fertility.

Common Reasons Women Freeze Eggs

• Delay in childbearing in order to pursue educational, career or other personal goals
• Need to undergo medical treatment that may impair future fertility – cancer radiation or chemotherapy
• Avoid complications that may arise from genetic traits such as early menopause
• Extend fertility in the future
• Women between ages 25 and 37
• Delay in having another child
• Medical conditions such as ovarian cysts

SINGLE FATHERHOOD

While some traditional beliefs on parenthood are still lagging, worldly views on the role of single fathers has shifted significantly. Whatever your reasons, we have the expertise and resources to help your dreams of fatherhood come true. There are many treatment options available to single men, using a combination of egg donor or a known donor, in vitro fertilization (IVF) and gestational surrogates to make your dream come true.
