You belong with us
Everyone deserves to build a family and to us, whole-person care means all-person care. At Twig, we champion inclusivity and welcome people from across the full spectrum of lived experience, regardless of their gender identification, gender expression, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, religion, ability or HIV status.
We proudly serve the LGBT2SQ+ community, and are a trans-affirming space that is mindful of ensuring everyone feels welcome in every aspect of their care.
Our care philosophy
Fertility care is a science, but it’s also a deeply personal experience for those planning to grow their family. We see a better way.
Our whole-person approach to care prioritizes physical and mental wellbeing, as well as communication and honesty. We offer the latest fertility advancements, digital integrations, and medical expertise, paired with additional support and supplementary services to help our patients feel informed, ready and resilient at every step.
At Twig, we’re more than practitioners of medicine — we are trusted partners to guide your journey and grow your nest.
Fertility options that meet your needs
We believe that everybody should feel empowered to have their own family and understand that there are a number of ways to achieve this. We are delighted to welcome all patients and have an inclusive and affirming approach to care.
This is just the start of how we support LGBT2SQ+ fertility.

Fertility Treatments
Reciprocal IVF
Reciprocal IVF allows both lesbian or trans men partners in a couple to participate, biologically and emotionally, in a pregnancy. During this process, one partner provides the egg for the embryo, while the other provides the uterus for the pregnancy.
Reciprocal IVF is also known as partner-assisted reproduction, shared motherhood, partner IVF, co-IVF or ROPA (reception of oocytes from partner).
Donor Sperm
Using donor sperm is an option for people who do not have sperm, or are unable to become pregnant using their own.
You may choose to use an anonymous donor from a verified donor bank, or to use a known donor, such as a friend or family member, who volunteers to donate their sperm to you.
While you are finding the right donor, Twig will be with you at every step to answer your questions and support your decision-making. Our in-house reproductive counsellor will guide you through the process, help you understand what to expect, and ensure you are confident and ready to proceed.
Donor Egg
Using donor eggs is an option for people who do not have eggs or are unable to become pregnant using their own.
You may choose to use an anonymous donor from a verified donor bank, or to use a known donor, such as a friend or family member, who volunteers to donate their eggs to you.
While you are finding the right donor, Twig will be with you at every step to answer your questions and support your decision-making. Our in-house reproductive counsellor will guide you through the process, help you understand what to expect, and ensure you are confident and ready to proceed.
Gestational Surrogacy
There are many reasons why an individual or couple may not be able to carry a pregnancy themselves and may require a gestational carrier to build their family.
Gestational surrogacy is when the person carrying a pregnancy is not the intended parent, nor are they genetically related to the future child. The eggs and sperm come from the intended parent(s) or donor(s).
For our patients pursuing gestational surrogacy, Twig is alongside you throughout your journey. Our in-house reproductive counsellor is your guide, here to answer your questions and make sure you feel prepared and confident at every step.
