Third Party Reproduction refers to family building options that involve more than the two intended parents. This can include the use of sperm donation if there is a male factor infertility, egg donation if there is a female factor, and a gestational carrier (or surrogate) if there are issues with the uterus. It is also commonly used in LGBTQ+ family building, such as same-sex female couples, where donor sperm is used, and sometimes both partners are biologically involved through methods like co-maternity.
