For many individuals or couples, the decision to pursue fertility treatments, including third-party reproduction, can be a deeply emotional process. While these treatments offer hope, they can also bring feelings of grief, loss, and uncertainty—whether it’s the need to rely on a donor, the challenges of infertility, or the complexities of building a family in non-traditional ways.
