London Women’s Clinic Brighton: Building a family, your way: trans and non-binary fertility options in Brighton
Brighton has long been a city where people can be themselves, and for the trans and non-binary community here that includes building a family in whatever way feels right. There isn’t one set route to parenthood and you don’t need every answer before you begin exploring what’s possible.
From egg, sperm and embryo freezing to IVF, donor conception and surrogacy, trans and non-binary people have a growing range of options for preserving fertility or starting a family, whether that’s before, during or after gender-affirming care.
What fertility options are available?
What’s available to you will depend on several factors. These include the eggs or sperm you have access to, whether you hope to carry a pregnancy yourself, any gender-affirming treatment you’ve already had or are planning, and whether a partner or donor is part of the picture. None of these questions need to be settled in advance. A conversation with a fertility specialist can help map out what’s realistic now and what might be possible later.
For many, the first step is preservation. This means freezing eggs, sperm or embryos so they remain an option for the future, regardless of what treatment path comes next. This can offer real peace of mind for anyone planning gender-affirming surgery or hormone therapy, giving you time to make decisions about parenthood on your own terms.
