Biology has continuously proven that it is impossible for two males or two females to create offspring. Therefore, parents must be willing to spend thousands of dollars for insemination. According to The Advanced Fertility Center of Chicago, an artificial insemination can cost anywhere between $1,000 to $5,000 for the insemination. However, the entire process which includes the fertility test, initial evaluations, fertility treatments, in vitro fertilization/ the cost of donor eggs but, excluding the needed medication can easily cost $26,000 (Advanced Fertility Center of Chicago). These prices may vary depending on the cost of the procedure and the sperm or egg …show more content…

During these procedures, there are many things that need to be taken into consideration. For example, with a lesbian couple, they must decide whose egg will be used. Only one egg will ultimately be used to inseminate the mother. Therefore, only one female will be considered the baby 's biological mother. Even when the mothers are unsure as to who the mother is the baby has a 50 percent chance to favor its biological mother. Because the child will end up gaining traits from one mother and not the other a division within the house may be resulted in this and can possibly strain the parents-child relationship. With two gay fathers, the question becomes whose sperm will be used. Like with a lesbian couple, it is possible to do “blind insemination” where neither one of the parents know who the donor is. However, it will still be evident when the child resembles one parent and not the other. It
