"Advancements in Same-Sex Parenting: Creating Babies with Shared DNA from Both Partners"

A new study from the Oregon Health & Science University suggests that it may be possible for gay male couples to have biological children using DNA from both partners. The research involves converting skin cells into egg cells through a process known as in vitro gametogenesis (IVG). While the practical application is at least a decade away, the technique could potentially help infertile couples and women unable to produce eggs. The study aims to produce eggs for patients who don't have their own eggs, and researchers are working to refine the process to avoid genetic abnormalities in resulting embryos.
