Reciprocal IVF, also known as partner-assisted IVF, is a family planning option gaining popularity among same-sex couples. The process involves retrieving an egg from one partner, fertilizing it with donor sperm, and placing it back in the other partner to develop and grow. The emphasis on both partners having a vital role in the journey is one reason why some couples choose RIVF. The cost of RIVF can vary widely depending on insurance, testing opt-ins, the clinic, and location, but it is comparable to the price of an IVF cycle done by a heterosexual couple. Increased visibility of options like RIVF can help make conversations easier, especially for LGBTQ people who may fear judgment or discrimination in seeking fertility information from medical professionals.
