Testosterone causes significant changes in the body. These can include stopping menstrual cycles and egg production. If you have already begun a hormonal transition, you need to stop testosterone to allow the eggs in your ovaries to develop again. The return of normal menstrual cycles suggests that the ovaries have resumed their normal ovulatory function. While it is possible to restore fertility after stopping testosterone intake, there isn’t a 100% guarantee. Transgender men who still have a womb can carry a pregnancy to term but will need to go off testosterone because it can inhibit the growth of a developing baby.
Medications used to prevent the body’s own release of LH and FSH from the pituitary gland (see Table 2). Note: The GnRH agonists (Lupron) can also be used to induce a flare-up or LH “surge.”

“I have a whole new appreciation to give to surrogates and surrogacy san diego as a whole because of this agency. I gave birth to twins Nov 9, 2015 because of this agency and couldn’t be more thrilled with them all! The staff is wonderful, patient, caring, and they’re there to help every step of the way. They make sure you get everything you deserve and have all of the support you could ever want or need. The support group meetings are always fun and filled with food and I was so happy with this agency and I know if anyone looking for a potential agency looks into Physician’s Surrogacy which is the partner surrogacy agency of RSMC, they won’t be let down!! Thank you, RSMC for everything you did to help me complete a family.”
“In my quest to fulfill my dream of helping a family though surrogacy I researched several agencies in the California area, I found so many great reviews on Physician’s Surrogacy which is the partner surrogacy agency of RSMC. I called and the staff was quick to answer all my questions. They certainly helped put my mind at ease and was the first agency (I called several) that I spoke with where I finally sensed “this is where I belong.” I immediately felt like they cared for my best interested and walked me through every step pf the matching process, no question of mine was ever too big or too small. Within just a couple of months of my profile being listed I had a conference call with a potential set of intended parents. A short time later, it was a match! It just took one phone call and I knew that all my wishes in what I was looking for in a set of intended parents had been listened to and met. Not long after, I had to travel for my initial medical clearance, surrogacy agency made all my travel arrangements and were in constant contact with me. Not quite
a year after my matching process and I am quickly nearing delivery of my first surrogate baby. The entire staff at the surrogacy agency has helped make this the most positive, joyful experience I could’ve ever imagined. If I ever need anything, my coordinator is quick to get on it and be sure it’s taken care of. I have gotten phone calls and texts from the staff congratulating me on important milestones (heartbeat confirmation, 20-week ultrasound, first, second and third trimester, etc.) surrogacy agency has always made me feel like family, I couldn’t have asked for a more pleasant experience!”
“Physician’s Surrogacy is an amazing agency. As a first-time surrogate, I knew that helping someone have a family was something I wanted to do, however, I had no idea how life changing this would be. I was matched with a wonderful couple — it could not have been any better of a match. For this couple, I carried twins, a boy, and a girl. Throughout my pregnancy, I felt supported, cared for, and appreciated by my IPs and everyone at the surrogacy agency. When I look back on my experience, I realize that I have given a couple a beautiful family, gained a good friend (Mom), and developed a new level of closeness with my husband. I am changed forever in a beautiful way!”
“Successful journey! So happy I was able to deliver this healthy baby boy for his family. I completed my first surrogate journey & the process went smoothly & my case manager Erika was always there when I needed her! If you’re looking for a surrogate agency, I would highly suggest Physician’s Surrogacy which is the partner surrogacy agency of RSMC.

我今年大三,因為從小就喜歡美國文化,所以大學念了外文系,更計畫在畢業前環遊美國。但無奈旅費是一筆很大的數目,即使我平日兼家教,還是無法達標。偶然間上網發現許多美國的華裔父母需要愛心捐卵人的幫助,於是看了許多人的推薦,最後才選擇風評最好的RSMC醫療生育中心。
由於這是我的第一次捐卵,RSMC的專業人員,詳細為我解釋整個流程和用藥注意事項,才知道原來捐卵是取女性身體未使用剩餘的卵子,而不是網路上謠傳的如此傷身。最後順利到美國完成捐卵,我的身體恢復得很快,經過檢查後,隔天就飛到東岸,開始環遊美國之旅,最令我感到貼心的,是RSMC的員工姊姊,知道我要去旅遊不但推薦許多景點,還熱心告訴我旅行要注意的事項,更留下她的電話,叮嚀我若遇到狀況,可以打電話請她幫忙!滿滿的人情味,讓我不得不推薦RSMC !
我的姊姊因為卵巢早衰一直無法孕育孩子,做過許多試管嬰兒療程都失敗,見她流過多少淚,多少的辛酸不為人知,所以我很能辛苦體會不孕家庭的痛楚,下定決心捐卵,幫助和她一樣的媽媽。
為此我上網做了許多功課,發現許多捐卵仲介介紹的醫院環境和環境都十分糟糕,只有RSMC是美國合法醫療中心,擁有專業的醫護人員。過程十分順利,手術只有短短不到20分鐘,快得讓我都不知道取卵已經完成。醫生說我的卵子十分健康,質量也很好。經過這次經驗,也許有一天我也能捐卵給姊姊,幫助她擁有孩子,那將會是很美好的一件事!
兩年前,我曾經捐過卵,當時是朋友介紹的仲介阿姨,一開始人非常熱心,詳細地幫我解答很多問題,直到幫我找到一家所謂的捐卵醫院後,人就開始消失,不回覆訊息,之後就是惡夢地開始,過程中許多細節我都沒有人引導,也沒有專業醫護人員詢問,所幸最後完成捐卵,身體也沒有大礙;不過這次不愉快經驗,也讓我決定不找仲介。
經過朋友的推薦,第二次我選擇了RSMC醫療中心,這次RSMC的專業協調員和醫護人員,仔細解答所有流程,甚至比我更擔心我的健康安全,叮嚀我所有注意事項,給像家一樣的溫暖感受,這此取卵結果非常成功,術後我也沒有任何不適!我已經預約我的下一次取卵,就在今年5月,希望我的貢獻,可以造福更多家庭。
我今年20歲,即將大學畢業,但想到沉重的學貸還沒付完,心頭就感到徬徨無助。還好,偶然發現RSMC徵愛心捐卵天使,便上網填寫申請表格,很快速地得到匹配。
一開始我對捐卵一無所知,但RSMC專業的醫護人員,在過程中耐心地解答每個疑問,甚至關心我的身體狀況;他們專業認真的態度,讓我備感安心;最後順利地完成捐卵,取出了多顆健康的卵子,才發現原來這一切比想像地還要簡單輕鬆!
更重要的是,這筆愛心回饋金幫助我還清剩下的學貸,一對美國的華裔夫妻,在我的幫助下獲得了一對雙胞胎。幫助人之餘,還能獲得豐富的報酬,沒有什麼事比這還令我感到開心且值得!
“It breaks my heart to know some people are unable to have a child of their own. I became a donor because helping someone have a child is an amazing thing. I wanted to give a part of me (that I luckily have) to someone else and change their lives.”
“I know there are couples out there that can’t have children and I’ve seen firsthand how devastating that can be, seeing my best friend go through her lowest point in life when she found out she couldn’t have children due to health issues. I believe everyone has a purpose in life and I strongly believe this was my purpose. There would be no greater feeling than giving someone a chance at a family, something that many of us take for granted.”
“I wanted to become an egg donor for many reasons. First, my passion for health leads me to admire the ability of the human body to reproduce. I am currently taking an embryology course and I find all of it so fascinating! I believe it would be an incredible honor to help someone who could not otherwise have a child fulfill their dreams of having one. This knowledge alone is a huge benefit to me! And any compensation helped me pursue my own dreams of becoming a women’s health specialist by helping fund my current medical school education.”

Egg donation allows individuals and couples to experience parenthood by using another woman’s eggs. Utilizing donor eggs is a great option for women who have undergone treatment such as chemotherapy or radiation. After these treatments, women are unable to naturally reproduce using their own eggs. The process involves utilizing eggs from another woman and fertilizing them with sperm to create an embryo. The embryo is then implanted in the intended mother or surrogate’suterus via IVF.
Today, the power is in your hands to delay parenthood to pursue your career, educational or personal goals. Most women don’t realize there is a dramatic decline in egg quality during your 30s and fertility preservation puts you in control of your timeline. The process is similar to IVF, but instead of the embryos being created and transferred, they are cryopreserved and stored. Once you have discussed everything with your partner and standard fertility testing has been completed, your physician determines which option is best for you. We have made fertility preservation even more accessible by offering one of the most egg freezing programs.
This option makes it possible for both you and you partner to have a biological connection to your child. It is the exact same process as IVF. However, the eggs are retrieved from one partner and the resulting embryos are transferred into the carrying mother’s uterus. Since you are going through the process together, fertility medications are used to sync your cycles. The woman who is providing the eggs goes through an ovarian stimulation cycle and the egg retrieval procedure.
IVF is another popular option for many situations, especially if you are using donor eggs. In the process of IVF, you/your partner/Egg Donor undergo ovarian stimulation to develop mature eggs which are then removed from the ovaries and fertilized in a laboratory. The resulting embryos are transferred into either your uterus, your partner’s uterus, or a Gestational Carrier if needed. Moreover, our IVF pricing is one of the most comprehensive ones in California and neighboring states.
Also referred to as artificial insemination, in which washed and prepared sperm is placed near the egg inside the uterus during an ovulation cycle. Fertility drugs are used to help track ovulation and increase your chances of success. In this case, your or your partner’s eggs and donor sperm will be used for embryo creation.
You’ll find your perfect match through our extensive donor database. Whether you are looking for a donor with high IQ, specific aesthetics, gifts or talents, our matching program assures you select the characteristics most important to you.

If you are considering growing a family before undergoing hormone therapy and/or gender confirmation surgery, sperm banking is an essential step you need to take. If you choose to freeze your sperm after starting hormone therapy, you would require a short pause in therapy in order to produce a good specimen.
If your partner is another trans man, your frozen eggs can be inseminated with the donor’s sperm to produce embryos. The resulting embryo can then be transferred into a Surrogate who will help you carry the pregnancy
If you’re partnered with a trans woman, your frozen eggs can be inseminated with a donor’s or your partner’s sperm (if available) to produce embryos, which are then transferred into a Surrogate, who will carry the pregnancy
Your partner’s sperm can be used to fertilize your frozen eggs. You may also need a Surrogate to carry the pregnancy for you.
Before transitioning and starting testosterone therapy, there is an option to conceive through intrauterine insemination (IUI) using donor sperm.
If your partner is another trans man, your frozen eggs can be inseminated with the donor’s sperm to produce embryos. The resulting embryo can then be transferred into a Surrogate who will help you carry the pregnancy
