Shownotes
Join Ciaran and Shaun as they talk about the pathways to parenthood. We are going to be talking about the options when it comes to assisted reproduction; the process of IVF, what ICSI is and what to expect. The guys also discuss alternate routes to parenthood, such as donor conception.
Options for Parenthood
We talk about the options that are available to you when you are on your path to parenthood. Some of those options are things like IVF and ICSI. Ciaran tells us what the differences are between them and why they are done. Shaun explains that ICSI is the most successful treatment for male infertility, and we talk a little bit about IUI.
The process of IVF & Adoption
Later on in the episode, we talk about the process of IVF and what it was like from a male perspective. Shaun goes into detail about what he did to be supportive and how that helped him to process everything. Ciaran and Shaun then discuss adoption as an option and how complex it actually is.
Donor Sperm
Lastly, Shaun goes through the donor sperm process and shares why he chose to go down that route. We talked about telling your children about donor conception and how you can go about doing that.
