According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), infertility occurs in about 10 percent or 6.1 million of women in the United States from the ages of 15 to 44 and have difficulty either getting pregnant or staying pregnant.  About one-third of the couples’ infertility is due to problems in women, another one-third due to problems in men, and final third for unknown reasons between the two.

Couples with infertility issues who are wanting to include children in their family have several options including adoption of children from foster homes, adoption agencies, and embryo adoption.

Embryo adoption process is similar to other adoptions in that it includes a homestudy, match to birthparent, adoption placement, and finalization of adoption. Domestic embryo adoption can take from a few months to a few years.

If you are interested in International embryo adoption, it can take from 8 months to 24 months. It is a good idea to learn the culture and some of the language to make the transition easier for the child.

How does the embryo adoption occur? You can actually give birth to your adopted baby. You receive all the medical and autobiographical information, including pictures of the family. You adopt all of the family embryos and they are delivered to a local fertility clinic. Your doctor then performs the embryo procedure.
