Abstract:
In 2014 a 36-year-old healthy female-to-male transgender patient attended the London Women's Clinic to consider oocyte and embryo freezing before sex reassignment surgery. The patient began IVF treatment in 2015; from two cycles, nine metaphase II oocytes and five blastocysts were frozen. Three years later the patient returned with his partner, a 39-year-old healthy transgender male-to-female individual, ready to start a family with surrogacy treatment. The surrogate delivered a healthy baby girl born at term in 2021 via Caesarean section, with a second successfully delivered in 2022. To our knowledge this is the first case report of successful family creation in which both partners are transgender.
